1.1 Discuss the relationship between the three short-run total cost curves. Use a
diagram to motivate your answer.
1.2 Explain the three categories of returns to scale relating to the long-run average
cost curve.
2.1 Illustrate and examine how the individual supply of labor curve demonstrates the
way an individual divides his/her time between work and leisure.
2.2 Distinguish between income elasticity of demand and cross price elasticity of
demand. Include in your answer a provision of their formula.
3.1 Explain the three possible profit maximizing positions of perfectly competitive
firms in the short-run.
3.2 Describe the nature of the goods produced by a monopolistically competitive
firm.
4.1 Distinguish between the short-run aggregate supply curve and the long-run
aggregate supply curve.
Process control and acceptance sampling are two types of quality control that
organizations utilize. In light of the above explain which type would be more
suitable for a manufacturing canned beverage
Imagine you are working for a Durban based company that is evaluating whether it should move it's manufacturing to India or China. You have been asked to present pros and cons of this investment. Based on what you have learned, what political, legal, economic and technological, social and business factors would you need to assess for each country

4. The marginal cost of a corn farmer in Dorman Ahenkroh has been estimated by a team of agricultural economists from UENR as P=10.0+ 0.075Q. The team also estimated the marginal benefits of corn consumption in the community as P= 42.0-0.125Q; where P is price of corn (C/tonne) and Q is the quantity of corn produced (measured in tonnes).
a. Determine the equilibrium quantity and price of corn in this market.
b. Assume the application of chemicals on the farm generates some external cost to the nearby fish pound, estimated at 0.05Q. What is the social optimal corn production level if this harm is internalized?
c. Graph the marginal benefit and marginal costs curves and estimate the deadweight loss due to the externality
"The production function of a given firm Is given by Q =200sqrtLK and the.\nassociated cost function is given by 2L + 5K = 1000\n\nA. Calculate the level of labor and capital input at the optimum level of production\n\nB. Calculate the MRTSL, K and MRTS k, L\n\nc. What is the level of output at the least cost combination of labor and capital inputs?"
