Explain what is Ricardian equivalence.

List five reasons why it may not hold.

Find an academic publication assessing empirical evidence of Ricardian equivalence and summarize its conclusion.

A molecular compound contains 92.3% carbon and 7.7% hydrogen by mass. What is the empirical formula of this compound? If 0.592 mol of the compound weighs 30.78g, what is its molecular formula?

Suppose the scores of students on an exam are normally distributed with a mean of 340 and a standard deviation of 57. Then according to the Empirical Rule approximately 99.7 of the exam scores lie between the integers    and    .

Question 8 [13]
How would income tax on companies affect the decision of an entrepreneur to invest? (Concentrate
on the main arguments and principles, and less on details of research and empirical evidence.)

How well can you tell the difference between an opinion, an ideology, and scientific evidence? How would you go about distinguishing between an empirical and an ethical claim?

A compound has a molar mass of 100 g/mol and the percent composition (by mass) of 65.45% C, 5.45% H, and 29.09% O. Determine the empirical formula and the molecular formula.

3. (a) With reference to examples, discuss the characteristics and consequences of financial bubbles.
(b) Discuss the empirical evidence on market under-reaction in the context of weak and semi-strong form efficiency.

2. Using Marx’s theory of competition do you think that the U.S. is competitive or is there a new stage of monopoly capitalism? Start by explaining Marx’s view and then review the empirical evidence.

I have these following tables:

�Company(compid, compname, comptype)

�Job(jobid, jobtitle, salarylow, salaryhigh, location, compid*)

�Skills(skillid, skillname) �Jobskills(jobid*, skillid*, expertiseneeded)

�Applicant(appid, name, age, highdegree, expected_salary)

�AppSkills(appid*, skillid*, expertise)

�Applies(jobid*, appid*, appdate, decisiondate, outcome)

The queries are:

1. Find the outcome of all job applications of Monica (once again, note that there may be multiple Monica's in the database).

2. Find the applicants who have applied to more than 2 different companies.

3. Find the jobs that require no skills (well, as far as the data is concerned), i.e., jobs for which there is no corresponding skill listed in the database. Do this query without using a subquery.

4. Find the jobs located in Dayton that require both database and analysis skills.

5. Find the company offering the maximum salary in Chicago.
