1. You are playing rock, paper, scissors with a friend. Each time you win, your friend gives you a dollar. Each time you lose, you pay your friend a dollar.

Suddenly, a third person enters the room and offers to pay your friend (not you) 50 cents each time your friend throws a rock. What is your friend’s optimal strategy now?

You are the manager of College Computers, a manufacturer of customized computers that meet the specifications required by the local university. Over 90 percent of your clientele consists of college students. College Computers is not the only firm that builds computers to meet this university’s specifications; indeed, it competes with many manufacturers online and through traditional retail outlets. To attract its large student clientele, College Computers runs a weekly ad in the student paper advertising its “free service after the sale” policy in an attempt to differentiate itself from the competition. The weekly demand for computers produced by College Computers is given by Q = 800 – 2P, and its weekly cost of producing computers is C(Q) = 1,200 + 2Q2. If other firms in the industry sell PCs at $300, what price and quantity of computers should you produce to maximize your firm’s profits?

Price: $

Quantity: computers

According to the information given to you，write a paragraph of the benefits of the gig economy in Australia（not less than 400words）

For example, new demand curves created by new opportunities for ‘entrepreneurs’ (i.e. ranging from the massive Uber corporation down to solo entrepreneurs). Note the attractive term ‘entrepreneur’ is sometimes even used to describe a young person on a bike delivering pizzas for about $10 per hour! He or she is considered a sole trader, not an employee. Advantages also include convenience for consumers, arguably convenience for the ‘gig’ workers in that they have flexibility of hours (e.g. they don’t need to be ‘stuck in an office from 9 -5 everyday). Also for Uber and Air B&B they have created a brand new demand ( this is sometimes referred to in business literature as a ‘blue ocean strategy’ [useful to look this up]) which is good for them.
(But it would also be useful to briefly discuss why Uber has not yet made a profit? Find out a tell me!)

Suppose the Republic of Controllistan is hit by an epidemic against which masks are effective. As demand surges, the price of masks goes up too (suppliers are slow to respond). Troubled by this development, the President of Controllistan decides to impose a cap on the price of masks, setting the price of masks much lower than the current equilibrium price. Use simple demand and supply diagram to illustrate the consequences of the price cap and comment briefly.
