b) The demand for baseball tickets is Q = 360 − 10P and the supply of baseball tickets is Q = 20P. Calculate the equilibrium quantity and price before tax. Now assume a per-ticket tax of $4. Calculate the price paid by consumers and price received by seller (allow prices to go up to 5 decimal places) after a per-ticket tax of $4. Calculate the new equilibrium quantity and the dead-weight loss, as a result of tax. Interpret your results. Graph the old and new prices, quantities and the dead-weight loss [3 marks].

Find which alternative is preferable using the IRR method and a MARR of 5 percent. Answer the following question by using present worth computations to find the IRRs. Use the least common multiple of service lives. Which of the two alternatives should be chosen? Use the ERR method if necessary.
(It is important to use least common multiple of service lives in this question.)

Aggregate Expenditure Practice Problem #1
Consider the following AE model:
C=.75Yd+ 300 Yd = Y – T I=100 G=50 T=40 M=50 X=65
1. Find the following:
Y* = |
MPC = |
MPS = |
Budget Deficit = |
Trade Surplus = |
Autonomous C = |
At Y*, C = |
At Y*, I = |
At Y*, G = |
At Y*, T = |
At Y*, net exports = |
At Y*, Savings = |
Leakages = |
Injections = |
|
2. Using the ∆RGDP equation, compute the new Y* if G is decreased by 15.
3. Verify your computation in #2 above by substituting G = 35 in the full AE model, and show your work.
4. Assume G remains at its original level of 50. Using the ∆RGDP equation, compute the new Y* if T is increased by 15.
5. Why does the change in G in question #2 have a more powerful effect on the economy than the change in T in question #4?
Aggregate Expenditure Practice Problem #2
Consider the following AE model:
C=.80Yd+ 200 Yd = Y – T I=125 G=200 T=150 M=100 X=50
1. Find the following:
Y* = |
MPC = |
MPS = |
Budget Deficit = |
Trade Surplus = |
Autonomous C = |
At Y*, C = |
At Y*, I = |
At Y*, G = |
At Y*, T = |
At Y*, net exports = |
At Y*, Savings = |
Leakages = |
Injections = |
|
2. Using the ∆RGDP equation, compute the new Y* if autonomous consumption is decreased by 50.
3. Assume that YFE = 2000. Compute the ∆G necessary to make Y* = YFE.
4. Assume that YFE = 2000. Compute the ∆T necessary to make Y* = YFE.

1. Briefly describe WHY the Classical Economists believed there was no point in stimulating the Aggregate Demand curve to achieve Economic Growth?
2. Briefly describe WHY the Keynesian Economists believed there was no point in stimulating the Aggregate Supply curve to achieve Economic Growth?
3. In the Modern Macroeconomic Synthesis, both matter: Why is this the case?
4. Given the Federal Government and Provincial Government responses to this Time of Pandemic, briefly explain at least ONE POLICY that would IMPACT EACH of the Aggregate Demand, AD curve AND the Short-Run Aggregate Supply, AS curve

Lesson 3.3 DB - Wages and Supply and Demand |
Please answer both questions to receive full credit for this assignment. Use your Unit 3 Notes Guide to help you craft your answers. Be sure to remember to use economic evidence from the lesson to support your opinion. 1. How do we decide how much each person in society should be paid? Why do some jobs receive high wages while others do not? Do wages reflect what types of jobs our society values? 2. View the supply and demand graph below. Analyze how jobs are affected by supply and demand. In the last five months, we've senn a lot in the news about supply, demand and unemployment. Using what you know about supply and demand and labor, explain how changes in supply and demand couple impact employment and jobs.
