Suppose that in any given period an unemployed person will find a job with probability .6 and will therefore remain unemployed with a probability of .4. Additionally, persons who find themselves employed in any given period may lose their job with a probability of .3 and will have a .7 probability of remaining employed. Set up the Markov transition matrix for this problem There are 1000 people in the economy. At period 0, half of the population is unemployed, what...

Suppose that in response to learning that some sick individuals were denied health insurance, the government mandates that insurance companies offer insurance to everyone at unregulated rates. Part A: Do you think that this would help reduce the number of uninsured? Explain. Part B: An alternative strategy for reducing the number of uninsured might be to mandate that insurance companies charge individuals with health problems no more than individuals without health problems. Would this help reduce the number of uninsured?...
