Each current owner (and potential seller) knows the quality (x) of the car that they have. (Note: We did not do a problem like this explicitly in class, but it is a very simplified version of the “A” insurance example from the notes.) a. Suppose that buyers...

The market for laundry detergent is monopolistically competitive. Each firm owns one brand, and each brand has effectively differentiated itself so that it has some market power (i.e., faces a downward sloping demand curve). Still, no brand earns economic profits, because entry causes the demand for each brand to shift in until the seller can just break even. All firms have identical cost functions, which are U-shaped. (a) Is this market in long-term or short-term equilibrium? Explain your claim? Now...

When you purchase a car, you may consider buying a brand-new car or a used one. A fundamental trade-off in this case is whether you pay repair bills (uncertain at the time you buy the car) or make loan payments that are certain. Consider two cars, a new one that costs $15,000 and a used one with 75,000 miles for $5,500. Let us assume that your current car’s value and your available cash amount to $5,500, so you could purchase...

Consider a market for used cars where each buyer wants to purchase exactly one used car if at all. In case he does not buy a car, his utility is zero. There are two kinds of used cars, good quality, called peaches, and bad quality, called lemons. Let there be 100 lemons with valuation 0 for both buyers and sellers, whereas there are 100 peaches with valuations of 100 for the buyers, and 60 for the sellers. There are 500...

An object Car can be described by the manufacturer (Honda, Toyota and Nissan), its price, and its quantity. These attributes are not accessible by other classes. The class contains a parameterized constructor that sets the attributes using mutator methods. The accessibility of the mutator methods are local to the class. It also has accessor methods that return the respective value of the attributes. The accessor method for getManufacturer() will return the code of the car (H, T or N) instead...
