Answer:

In your own words (not copied and pasted from the textbook or another source), explain what the following sentence means:

"Attachment theories assume that the relationship between early experiences and subsequent outcomes is probabilistic, not deterministic."

A U.S. electronics firm is considering moving its production to a plant in Mexico. Its estimated production function is q = L^0.5K^0.5. In the U.S., the wage, w is ten dollars, and the cost of capital, r is also ten dollars. In Mexico, the wages is half that in the U.S., but the firm faces the same cost of capital: w^∗ = 5 and r = r^∗ = 10. If the firm wants to produce q = 100 units of output, what amount of labor and capital will it choose to utilize in the U.S.? What amount of labor and capital will it choose to utilize in Mexico? What are the total costs of producing at each plant? (Hint: With q = L^0.5K^0.5, M P_L = 0.5L^−0.5K^0.5 and M P_K = 0.5L^0.5K^−0.5.)

Press 1 to modify Student

Press 2 to modify Staff

Press 3 to modify Professor

Press 0 to exit program

1. Suppose a fair, two-sided coin is flipped. If it comes up heads you receive $5. If it comes up tails you lose $1. The expected value of this lottery is (a) $2 (b) $3 (c) $4 (d) $5 (e) None of the above

2. An individual has a vNM utility function over money of u(x) = p3 x , where x is final wealth. She currently has $8 and can choose among the following three lotteries. Which lottery will she choose? • Lottery 1: Give up her $8 and face the gamble (0.1, 0.5, 0.4) over final wealth levels ($1, $8, $27). • Lottery 2: Keep her $8. • Lottery 3: Give up her $8 and face the gamble (0.2, 0.8,0.0) over final wealth levels ($1, $8, $27) (a) Lottery 1 (b) Lottery 2 (c) Lottery 3 (d) She is indifferent between the three lotteries.

3. An individual has a vNM utility function over money of u(x) = px, where x is final wealth. Assume the individual currently has $16. He is offered a lottery with three possible outcomes; he could gain an extra $9, lose $7, or not lose or gain anything. There is a 15% probability that he will win the extra $9. What probability, p, of losing $7 would make the individual indifferent between to play and to not play the lottery? (a) p = 0.15 (b) p = 1.08 (c) p = 0.415 (d) p = 0.05 (e) None of the above

Literature Review

Guidelines

Guide only, feel free to organise however else you like to as long as you address the learning outcomes and elements in the rubric.

* Introduction

Introduce the general issue and its importance

Identify key trends or perspectives

Identify the specific focus of this literature review (your identified issue)

Give a brief outline of the structure of the body

* Body

Cluster your literature around common themes or threads of ideas. Structure your writing thematically and not author by author. This allows you to compare, contrast, and make sense of the different authors’ perspectives on one point./ And if you find there are a lot of authors with some contribution to one point, then maybe that point needs to be teased out into sub-themes

Try not to hide behind what the literature is saying. Remember, it is up to you to interpret it and make sense of it for your reader. Listing what they have found or believe is part of a literature review, but in itself is not enough, you need to clarify what the reader is to take away from this body of research

Never be afraid to narrow your topic. You have a word limit, which is enough to make one meaningful point, but not to include detail for its own sake. It is better to dig deep into a topic rather than be broad and superficial

You may have to limit your question many times before you finalise your draft. Spend time considering your question/topic, because this provides the guidelines for your writing and your research. You need to have clear guidelines so that you can research with purpose and efficiency, even if these guidelines are modified later. Otherwise a lot of time and energy will be wasted, either, looking at irrelevant material, or material that cannot fit into your review

* Conclusion

Summarize the major contributions, evaluating the current position, and pointing out flaws in methodology, gaps in the research, contradictions and areas for further study

Conclude by summing up and identifying the significance of the topic in relation to the literature

* Please ensure that you write succinctly to avoid wasting your word count. Note that unnecessary words weakens your argument. You should keep within +/- 10% of your word count

* Check for spelling and grammatical errors. Loosing marks from errors that could be addressed through editing is not worth it.

* Make sure that all references are correctly referenced using APA style

* Refer to Unit Guide for more information about the unit requirements
