Suppose you are taking a luxury tour of a city in a limousine. With just a few passengers, the tour is pleasant and everyone has plenty of space to stretch and move around to see the sights. As more people get in the limo, it may start to become crowded. Suppose the 5th and 6th individuals enter the limousine together. What is your marginal utility (x) associated with this increase of passengers

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

Note: This question is incomplete and lacks necessary data about the number of passengers and total utilities. However, I have found a similar question on the internet and will using its data to solve for this problem. Besides that, I have attached the data in the attachment that I am using in this question.

Solution:

First of all, we are asked to calculate the marginal utility. In order to do that, we need to know the formula for Marginal Utility.

Formula:

Marginal Utility = TU2 - TU1/C2-C1

Where,

MU = Marginal Utility

TU = Total Utility

C = Number of units

So, according to the data provided.

For 0 number of passengers:

MU(0) = 0

For 2 number of passengers:

MU(2) = (100 - 0)/(2-0) = 100/2 = 50

Similarly,

For 4 number of passengers:

MU(4)=(225-100)/(4-2)= (125/2) = 62.5  

For 6 number of passengers:

MU(6)=(355-225)/(6-4) = (130/2) = 65

For 8 number of passengers:

MU(8)=(400-355)/(8-6) = (45/2) = 22.5

For 10 number of passengers:

MU(10)=(425-400)/(10-8)= (25/2) = 12.5

Direct materials $35.00
Direct labor 18.00
Factory overhead (40% of direct labor) 7.20

Auto Shoppe is considering the purchase of a new engine computer code reader for $30,000. Auto Shoppe can charge $50 for the service of reading the codes from a single car engine, while the actual cost of the reading would only be $10 per car engine. Suppose that the manager of Auto Shoppe is concerned about this purchase, and has stated that if Auto Shoppe were to buy the new engine computer code reader, "..the machine needs to pay for itself by the time we use it to read the codes of 200 car engines." The manager says this is because, "…those sorts of engine computer code readers go out of date very quickly, so if we don’t get our money back soon, we will probably just wind up replacing the machine before it ever breaks even." What would Auto Shoppe need to charge for the service of reading each car engine, to just break-even when it reads the codes from 200 car engines?

The price of trade Suppose that Italy and Sweden both produce beer and cheese. Italy's opportunity cost of producing a pound of cheese is 4 barrels of beer while Sweden's opportunity cost of producing a pound of cheese is 10 barrels of beer. By comparing the opportunity cost of producing cheese in the two countries, you can tell that has a comparative advantage in the production of cheese and has a comparative advantage in the production of beer. Suppose that Italy and Sweden consider trading cheese and beer with each other. Italy can gain from specialization and trade as long as it receives more than of beer for each pound of cheese it exports to Sweden. Similarly, Sweden can gain from trade as long as it receives more than of cheese for each barrel of beer it exports to Italy. Based on your answer to the last question, which of the following prices of trade (that is, price of cheese in terms of beer) would allow both Sweden and Italy to gain from trade?
a. 4 barrels of beer per pound of cheese
b. 7 barrels of beer per pound of cheese
c. 6 barrels of beer per pound of cheese
d. 1 barrel of beer per pound of cheese
