Suppose the market demand can be separated into two distinct markets, where, p1= 80-5y1, p2=180-2y2, and the common cost function is C=50+40(y1+y2).
Determine the equilibrium prices and quantities in each market and the overall profits that result from actions of a third degreeprice-discriminating monopoly.
Determine the price elasticity of demand in each market, evaluated at the equilibrium prices and quantities.
What is the relationship between the price elasticity of the demand in each market and the price prevailing in each market?

You are considering investing $1,000 in a complete portfolio. The complete portfolio is composed of Treasury bills that pay 5% and a risky portfolio, P, constructed with two risky securities, X and Y. The optimal weights of X and Y in P are 60% and 40%, respectively. X has an expected rate of return of 14%, and Y has an expected rate of return of 10%. To form a complete portfolio with an expected rate of return of 9.7%, you should invest ________ of your complete portfolio in Treasury bills.

3. Business schools A and B reported the following summary of GMAT (Graduate Management Aptitude Test) mathematics scores. Test the claim that there is a difference in means between two schools A and B. (a) At α = 1%, use the Classical approach to conclude it. (b) Using the P-value approach to conclude it. Business school A : n=50, X bar=37, S2=100 Business school B : n=40, X bar= 33, S2 = 80

With its given resources and technology, an economy can produce either 50 units of good Y or 100 units of good X. For each of the following combinations of goods indicate whether the combination is NF (not feasible), FE (feasible and efficient), or FI (feasible but inefficient). Enter the two letters only.
20 units of good Y and 60 units of good X
25 units of good Y and 40 units of good X
30 units of good Y and 80 units of good X

The local library if they get more patrons visiting by shifting some early morning hours to evening. They take a sample of days with morning hours included 8-5pm compared to 12-9pm.
8am-5pm hours: 50, 40, 60, 60, 70, 35, 40
12-9 PM hours : 40, 80, 70, 60, 85, 90, 70
