Uber is a ride-sharing service started in 2009. If you are not familiar with Uber, you can learn more about the services it provides at Uber.com.Construct an eight-page analysis of Uber using the following criteria.Analyze the market before Uber’s entry. Describe the inefficiency Uber exploited.Explain Uber’s surge pricing in the context of shifts in supply and demand.Evaluate Uber’s surge pricing in the context of price discrimination.Apply the concepts of economies of scale and economies of scope to Uber’s business model.Apply the concepts of game theory to Uber’s market.Assess Uber’s potential for international expansion and potential trade policy issues.Explain the incentive pay model Uber uses and how it affects the principal-agent problem.Discuss any asymmetric information issues with Uber’s business model.Your essay must be at least eight pages in length (not counting the title and references pages) and include at least five peer-reviewed resources. Adhere to APA Style when writing your analysis, including citations and references for sources used. Be sure to include an introduction. Please note that no abstract is needed.

Part 1 (150 words plus 1 reference)An externality constitutes a market failure. An example of an “negative” externality is air pollution from power-generating facilities (e.g., coal-fired power plant). Identify and explain two market-based solutions that would help to mitigate negative externalities, like air pollution? How would government, if at all, need to play a role in pollution abatement?Part 2 (150 words plus 1 reference)Have legislative remedies, like the Clean Air Act and Clean Water Act, produced results to mitigate negative externalities? At what cost? Have the benefits of the legislation outweighed the costs to industry? Identify and describe two additional measures that state and/or city governments are undertaking to reduce contributions to climate change by addressing degradation of air, land, and water (e.g., efforts in California, City of Phoenix).

Module 2 Simulation help Posted Jan 11, 2022 12:01 AM How to Play-see attached as well. • Each morning, you split 30 minutes between preparing burgers and preparing fries for later sale. • Your screen tells you how many fries and how many burgers you make per minute. • You divide your time by using the plus buttons and pressing Prepare Food. o Because you have 30 minutes in total, as you increase time preparing an item, time spent on the other decreases. Earnings Computation • You sell only one item: Combos consisting one one burger and one order of fries. • Your earnings equal the number of Combos you bring. o I.e., whichever is smaller: the number of fries you bring or the number of burgers you bring. Example o You make 2 burgers per minute you spend on burgers. o You make 1 order of fries per minute you spend on fries. o You spend 14 minutes preparing burgers and 16 minutes preparing fries. Earnings = Combos=minimum{Burgers, Fries} Earnings = minimum{14 × 2, 16 × 1} 16 = minimum{28, 16} Attachment(s): ComparativeAdvantageStudentInstructions(1).pptx (581.46 KB) ComparativeAdvantage_NoTrade_Instructions.mp4 (4.36 MB) Comparative Advantage (without Trade): Module Two External Learning Tool STOP: Please read the instructions before clicking on the simulation link.

The United States has a comparative advantage over China on the production of specialized and capital-intensive labor. It also has a comparative advantage in the production of services, such as travel and tourism. For this discussion, first play these simulation games in the MindTap environment: Comparative Advantage (Without Trade) Comparative Advantage (With Trade) In your initial post, share your experience playing the games, and include an image of one of your simulation reports. (See Module Two Simulation Discussion Screenshot Instructions PDF.) Then address the following: Countries trade goods just like the food trucks do in the simulation. Did the food trucks benefit from specialization and trade? How can the United States benefit from specialization and trade? Provide examples from the textbook. Research and share a current news article on international trade that supports the argument economists make in favor of free trade agreements (FTAs). In what ways is the article supportive of FTAs? In your responses, comment on at least two of your peers' posts. Critique the arguments made in each peer's article by weighing the costs of FTAs against the benefits. Support your position with sources from the news or the textbook. To access your simulations, click the simulation link found in the module.
