There are 10 marbles in a jar. They are identical except for color. Four are Red, three are Blue, two are Yellow and one is White. You draw a marble from the jar, note its color, and set it aside. Then, you draw another marble from the jar and note its color.

a) What is the probability that you draw two Red marbles?

b) What is the probability that you draw a Blue marble GIVEN that you have drawn a Red one?

c) What is the probability that you draw a Blue and a Yellow marble in EITHER ORDER?

d) What is the probability that EITHER marble you draw is White?

When discounting future costs and benefits, anyone performing a benefit-cost analysis will use an interest rate or a discounting rate, which is shown as i in the following equation:

1. Explain why the net present value of most projects rises when i decreases. (1)

2. Imagine that a project will yield $20M in benefits immediately, but will result in $200B in damaged at the end of 500 years. Using a rate of i=0.03 or 3% to discount the future damages, calculate the present value of the future damages and the net present value of this project. (1)

3. What does your answer from part B suggest about discounting and intergenerational equity? Explain. (1)

Question 1: Suppose the government forces everyone to deposit all their cash holdings in a bank account. What will happen to overall money supply in the economy? Use money multiplier model and explain your answer.

Question 2: Why did oil prices become negative in the middle of April? Why didn't consumers see negative prices at gas stations?

Question 3: The current crisis has reignited the debate about the relative usefulness of fiscal policy and monetary policy in the presence of zero lower bound. Explain the limitations of fiscal and monetary policy under zero lower bound. Which policy do you think is more effective?

1 Over the past decade, there has been a strong positive correlation between teacher salaries and prescription drug cost.

(a) Do you think paying teachers more causes prescription drugs to cost more? Explain.
(b) What lurking variable might be causing the increase in one or both of the variables? Explain.

2 When we use a least-squares line to predict y values for x values beyond the range of x values found in the data, are we extrapolating or interpolating? Are there any concerns about such predictions?

WRITE IN YOUR OWN! WORDS and dont copy from another question that have been answer plz thank you

Question: Consider a normal distribution with mean m and

variance s2. Assume we know that s2 = 4 and suspect that m 6= 3. Assume further

that we have independently drawn 100 values from the distribution and have

obtained a sample mean of 5.

(a) Explain the notion of a sampling distribution and state the central limit

theorem.

(b) Approximately, what is the sampling distribution in the above situation?

Assume now that we want to conduct a hypothesis test concerning our suspicion

that m 6= 3.

(c) What are appropriate null and alternative hypotheses in this situation? Is the

test one-tailed or two-tailed?

(d) Explain the notion of a p-value.

(e) What is the p-value in the above situation? State which test statistic you are

using and why this is appropriate.

(f) For a significance level of a = 0:05, which conclusion can be drawn from

the test? Explain your reasoning.

(g) Explain the notion of a type 1 error. What is the probability of a type 1 error

in the above test?

This question uploaded just for study, not for examination help.. Kindly answer

A college senior who took the Graduate Record Examination exam scored 630 on the Verbal Reasoning section and 600 on the Quantitative Reasoning section. The mean score for Verbal Reasoning section was 455 with a standard deviation of 108, and the mean score for the Quantitative Reasoning was 449 with a standard deviation of 147. Suppose that both distributions are nearly normal. Round calculated answers to 4 decimal places unless directed otherwise.

1.What is her percentile score on the Verbal Reasoning section? Round to nearest whole number.

2. What is her percentile score on the Quantitative Reasoning section? Round to nearest whole number.

3. What percent of the test takers did better than she did on the Verbal Reasoning section?  %

4. What percent of the test takers did better than she did on the Quantitative Reasoning section?  %

5. What is the score of a student who scored in the 65th65th percentile on the Quantitative Reasoning section? Round to the nearest integer.

6. What is the score of a student who scored worse than 41% of the test takers in the Verbal Reasoning section? Round to the nearest integer.

Draw a diagram where you display output Y on the y-axis and physical capital K in the x-axis. Draw all the relevant curves for analyzing the Solow-Swan model and explain in words what each of those describes. Assume that the economy starts at steady state and is then hit by a shock that increases the saving rate. Point out what the new steady state levels of capital and output are. Do they increase or decrease? Why? Explain in words the process that leads to the new steady state.
