A society consists of two people with utilities U1 and U2, and the social welfare function is W = à ƒ Ž ±1U1 + à ƒ Ž ±1U2. Draw a utility possibility frontier similar to the ones in Figure 10.9. When social welfare is maximized, show that as à ƒ Ž ±1/à ƒ Ž ±2 increases, Person 1 benefits and Person 2 is harmed
Adrienne and Sarah consume pizza, Z, and cola, C. Adrienne’s utility function is UA = ZACA, and Sarah’s is Z0.5 D C0.5 D . Adrienne’s marginal utility of pizza is MUZA = CA. Similarly, MUAC = ZA, MUDZ = 1 2 Z-0.5 D C0.5 D , and MUDC = 1 2 Z0.5 D C-0.5 D . Their endowments are ZA = 10, CA = 20,ZD = 20,CD = 10. a. What are the marginal rates of substitution for each person? b. What is the formula for the contract curve? Draw an Edgeworth box and indicate the contract curve.
In a pure exchange economy with two goods, G and H, the two traders have Cobb-Douglas utility functions. Amos⠀ ™ utility is Ua = (Ga)Î ±(HÎ ±)1-Î ± and Elise⠀ ™s is U e = (G e Î ² ) (H e ) 1-Î ². What are their marginal rates of substitution? Between them, Amos and Elise own 100 units of G and 50 units of H. Thus, if Amos has Ga and Ha, Elise has Ge = 100 -Ga and He = 50 -Ha. Solve for their contract curve.
Two people trade two goods that they cannot produce. Suppose that one consumer’s indifference curves are bowed away from the origin—the usual type of curves—but the other’s are concave to the origin. In an Edgeworth box, show that a point of tangency between the two consumers’ indifference curves is not a Pareto-efficient bundle
The two people in a pure exchange economy have identical utility functions. Will they ever want to trade? Why or why not?

STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION  

PRACTICE SET 5 

  1. The Creep Company has the following accounts in year-end 2020.  
  2. Kindly prepare the SFP in both report and account forms. 


Accounts Payable ₱    600,000 

Unearned Revenue 1,210,000 

Salaries Payable- current 120,000 

Owner’s Withdrawals   280,000 

Owner’s Capital 1,500,000 

Comprehensive Income  3,000,000  

Total Current Assets 80% of total liabilities  

Cash 250,000 

Inventories 480,000 

Prepaid Expenses 600,000 

Property, Plant and Equipment ? 

Accounts Receivable ? 


The demand functions for each of two goods depend on the prices of the goods, p1 and p2: Q1 = 15 -3p1 + p2 and Q2 = 6 -2p2 + p1. However, each supply curve depends on only its own price: Q1 = 2 + p1 and Q2 = 1 + p2. Solve for the equilibrium: p1, p2, Q1, and Q2
The demand functions for the only two goods in the economy are Q1 = 10 - 2p1 + p2 and Q2 = 10 - 2p2 + p1. There are five units of each good. Solve for the equilibrium: p1, p2, Q1, and Q2?

STATEMENT OF COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Practice Set 12

1. The Swift Company presented the balances of each income and expense account and you are tasked to make its EXPANDED INCOME STATEMENT for the year ended 2020.

2. Always apply the income tax expense as 25% of operating profit.

Gross Sales = ₱ 3,822,300

Sales Returns= ₱ 219,700

Gross Purchases = ₱ 1,000,000

Purchase Discounts = ₱ 180,000

Beginning Inventories = ₱ 920,500

Ending Inventories = ₱ 450,800

Distribution Expenses = ₱ 760,200

Administrative Expenses = ₱ 440,900

Other Comprehensive Income = ₱ 210,000


suppose the government implements a price ceiling of $20/unit in this market. Is this price ceiling binding on the market? What are the quantities demanded and supplied at the price ceiling? How many units are exchanged at this price? Given the effects of the policy, is there a potential for illegal trade? Briefly explain your answers where necessary.
