b. Supply i. Define supply. ii. State the law of supply. iii. List and explain the determinants of supply and how each can either cause an increase in supply and a decrease in supply. 1. There are 6 determinants of supply listed in the slide set. You should be able to list and explain how each shifts the supply curve to the left or right. iv. Thoroughly and completely explain the differences between a change in supply and a change in quantity supplied and the causes of those changes. 1. Be sure you include the causes of the changes!

1. For each of the following policies, discuss the extent to which the federal government significantly expanded its role during the Civil War: a) money and banking, b) increased protection of U.S.industry from foreign competition, c) transportation infrastructure, and d) promoting western settlement. During the War, what policy changes occurred in each of these areas, why were they taken during the war and not sooner, and do you think the policy changes were appropriate or not? (Please discuss each policy a), b), etc. separately).

The wavelengths of absorption of chromophores in electronic spectra are often influenced by the solvent. For example, polar solvents stabilize the ground state of n --> π transitions (n is a non-bonding orbital that is carried over into the molecular orbital scheme) more than the excited state. On the other hand, for π to π* transitions, the excited state is more stabilized. Sketch diagrams to show the changes in energy levels involved in the electronic transition when a chromophore changes from a nonpolar to a polar solvent environment and predict the shift in wavelength in each case.

1. When interest rates are artificially lowered through expansionary monetary policy,

a) longer-term investment projects appear to be more profitable, and production of capital goods increases.

b)the economy experiences an unsustainable boom phase.

c)the economy will likely fall into a recession in the longer run.

d) all of the above tend to occur.

2.The democratic political process is weighted in a manner that favors

contractionary over expansionary fiscal and monetary policies because changes in aggregate demand tend to affect output before they affect the price level.

A consumer allocates all of her income between two goods, food and clothing, with the quantity of food consumed captured by the variable F while that of clothing by the variable C. The consumer has usual strictly convex preferences between the two goods. Assume that food is an inferior good and it is kept on the horizontal axis.

Suppose that the consumer’s income remains unchanged but prices of both of these goods change.

The price changes you need to examine is assume that both prices fall with price of food falling by a higher percentage relative to clothing.

(a)

State the impact of the price changes you are required to examine on the relative price of food.

(b)

Determine whether clothing should be treated as a normal or inferior good and explain your answer.

(c)

Now proceed with doing a geometric analysis to portray one case that is logically consistent with the price change scenario you need to examine as specified in (a). In doing so, illustrate and explain how the consumer’s optimal bundle might change in response to the cumulative impact of these price changes.

(d)

Comment on whether the direction of total change in optimal quantities of food and clothing that you have shown in your diagram for part (c) are the only logically consistent possibilities. Or, is it also possible that changes could also be in the opposite direction? Explain your answer. You do not need to do additional diagrammatic analysis to answer this part.

d.none of the above

The marginal rate of substitution is:

Group of answer choices

a.the rate at which consumers substitute for one good as its price changes

b.the rate at which utility changes as consumption bundles change

c.the rate at which total substitution changes as overall consumption changes

d.the rate at which consumers substitute one good for another while staying on the same indifference curve
