Microeconomics question:

1a. Suppose Constance Wu is choosing different amounts of Californian sourdough bread and Portuguese codfish to consume. Her income is N. The price of one Californian sourdough bread is Pc and the price of one Portuguese codfish is Pp. Draw and label a graph showing her budget line and her standard indifference curves. Indicate in your graph the optimal amount of Californian sourdough bread and the optimal amount of Portuguese codfish that she should consumer in order to maximize her total utility.   At the optimal consumption point, what is the relationship between the slope of the budget line and the slope of the indifference curve?

1b. Suppose Constance Wu’s income increases, and the price of a Californian sourdough bread stays the same and the price of a Portuguese codfish stays the same, show in a separate graph how her optimal consumption of the two goods changes.

I am writing a paper on superfluidity for my physics class and was wondering if anyone could give me some ideas of what to write on and how to write a scientific style paper. If you have any sources that could help that would be great.

The Cradle to Cradle (C2C) concept is a system of thinking based on the belief that industry can be transformed into a sustaining enterprise—one that creates economic, ecological, and social value— through thoughtful and intentional design that mirrors the safe, regenerative productivity of nature and eliminates the concept of waste.

Write a 300-word essay discussing whether you think this concept has business value.  

following criteria:

• will demonstrate understanding of the Cradle to Cradle concept along with appropriate and accurate use of terminology from the book by Michael Braungart and William McDonough.
• will demonstrate critical thinking by using logic, evidence (at least one example) and well-reasoned argument.  
• The essay will be written in appropriate, standard written English.

1. Consider the market for surgical face masks in Albuquerque which is currently in equilibrium at a price of $3.00 per mask and a quantity of 10,000 masks per week traded.

• Draw a supply and demand curve showing this equilibrium.
• For each of the following cases, explain (verbally and using your Supply and Demand curve) what would happen to the market:
  • The city is gripped by a fear of COVID-19, the Corona Virus.
  • The Centers for Disease Control issue a public notice that surgical masks offer no protection against COVID-19.
  • The University of New Mexico cancels class for two weeks and urges students to return to their homes.
  • The Federal Government offers subsidies to manufacturers and distributers to increase the production and distribution of surgical masks.
  • The City of Albuquerque imposes a price cap of $5 each on surgical masks.
  • Major local retailers impose a limit of three masks per purchase.
  • An informal secondary market for surgical masks develops in order to get around the price and quantity limitations imposed by retailers and government agencies.
  • The City of Albuquerque issues an order cancelling all public gatherings of more than 1,000 people for the month of March.
  • The Governor of New Mexico Issues a price-gouging measure requiring retailers to seek approval for daily price variation of more than 5%.

VBA question, write a function check keyword in a string.

Question:

Function sentimentCalc(tweet As String) As Integer

This function should check each word in the tweet and if the word exists as one of the keywords in the positive list or negative list it should impact the overall sentiment value. The positive list and negative list words exist in the keywords sheet. Access the keywords as ranges within your VBA code. The case of the word is inconsequential. For instance, happy, HAPPY, or hApPy are all treated as positive words regardless of their case (Hint: StrComp).

We have a keyword excel show that which word is positive and which is negative. How to get the keyword please see the hit part below.

If the word is in the positive list, it should increase the sentiment value by 10, if it is in the negative list it should decrease it by 10.

For instance, if the positive list includes “happy”, “rally”, “growth” and the negative list includes “crash”, “scam”, “bad” then:

If the Tweet is “I am Happy that Bitcoin is showing growth.”. The sentiment value will be 10 + 10 = 20

If the Tweet is “I am happy that Bitcoin is a scam and will CRASH!” The sentiment value will be 10 – 10 – 10 = -10

You must remove the following punctuation characters from the tweet text in your VBA code before calculating the sentiment: ! . , ? : ) ( ;

You may do this using multiple lines each calling the Replace function or with an array, loop and one call to the Replace function. Both methods will be marked as correct.

HIT:

You will need to use the string functions StrCom p, Split and Replace In this function.To get the ranges from the keywords Sheet use Worksheet and Range object like so:

Dim positive As Range

Set positive = Worksheets("keywords").Range("A2:A76")

Dim negative As Range

Set negative = Worksheets("keywords").Range("B2:B76")

This will give you the range A2:A76.From the sheet namedkeywords As the variable named positive.You can do the same for the negative range (but with different cell references And variable names).

You will need to use nested loops. One to go through each word in the keywords and one to Go through each word in the tweet text.

Y0 100,000.00 100,000.00

Y1                          35,000.00          35,000.00

Y2                          28,000.00          35,000.00

Y3                      32,000.00          35,000.00

Y4                      40,000.00             35,000.00

Required: Calculate the Payback period of each project and advise EEF’s board of directors which project they should invest in.

A company has two different bonds currently outstanding. Both bonds have a face value of R100. Bond A matures in 10 years. The bond makes no coupon payments for the first four years and then pays R8.50 semi-annually for the subsequent four years, and finally pays R10.50 semi-annually for the last two years. Bond B also matures in 10 years; it makes coupon payments of R4.50 semi-annually over its life. The yield to maturity on both bonds is 12% per annum, compounded semi-annually.

What is the current price of each bond?
