ECO 200 USC Advanced Microeconomics Wage Subsidy on Competitive Market Cover Letter
As an economist, in addition to being able to analyze a situation, you will need to be able to communicate your ideas to others. In this writing assignment, you will be acting as an economic policy advisor. Scenario: Mayor McNeill has just taken over as the mayor of Doronto, a city famous for its lively food-cart industry. All over Doronto there are food carts selling all kinds of different cuisines, and the reputation Doronto has developed as being foody-friendly has been great for tourism. Part of Mayor McNeill’s plan for improving Doronto is to promote this food-cart culture, focusing on the business aspect. One of his policy advisors has suggested that one way they could promote this kind of industry in Doronto is to subsidize the wages of food-cart workers: every year when the food carts submit their taxes to the city, the city would subsidize the hourly wages by $1, which would be deducted from the taxes that firm (food cart) would have to pay that year. Mayor McNeill’s advisor suggested that this would be popular with the people who work in these firms, and the firm owners, and promote the overall growth of the food-cart industry. Of course, Mayor McNeill is interested in the well-being of these workers, the profitability of the firms, the growth of the industry, and the city’s overall finances. Mayor McNeill’s office has hired your consulting firm to look into the matter further and provide some guidance as to whether implementing this subsidy would be a good idea overall, and specifically who benefits from this policy. Your firm has done some preliminary research, and discovered the following things: firms in the food cart industry (regardless of what kind of food they are selling) are perfectly competitive, and have the same production technology (cost structure). That is, each firm is essentially identical. There is a large supply of labor in Doronto, willing to work at the (currently) prevailing wage rate of $10/hour –so large, in fact, that firms have no problem finding workers willing to work for $10 per hour (which would continue to be true even if they hired significantly more workers than they currently do). There are no barriers to entry –new food trucks start up all the time. The industry is currently in an equilibrium where firms are earning zero economic profit. Your task is to think about the proposed policy. Notice that this is not a calculation problem –we have not specified the functions you would need in order to perform exact calculations –instead, we want you to be thinking of this more generally. What would happen in this market if we implement this subsidy in the short run? In the long run? Who benefits from this policy?Instructions:Your task contains two parts, an analysis and a cover letter. Analysis: In this section of your writing assignment, you should analyze the above scenario. If you arrive at a conclusion about whether the policy is a good idea or not, you should explain your reasoning. If you cannot determine from what you know, you should explain what you know and what you would have to consider when making the decision to implement the policy or not. You should be clear about what you are considering when making your policy recommendations, and how those factors impact your decision. If you make any additional assumptions (beyond those mentioned above), you should clearly state them and if relevant, address what would happen if those assumptions do not hold. Length: Your analysis part of the writing assignment should be approximately 700 words.Cover Letter: In this section, you are communicating the main results from your analysis to Mayor McNeill in a clear and concise way. This letter should be professional but not technical in nature –it should explain the main ideas of your analysis in a way that can be understood by someone who is not an economist. The purpose of the cover letter is to summarize the information from your analysis –the things you say in your cover letter should be supported in your analysis section, and the main results of your analysis should be included in the cover letter. The cover letter should provide some kind of guidance–this could be to implement or not implement the policy under consideration. Or, if you cannot make a clear recommendation without more information, describe what more you need to know, and how it would help you to make this decision. Length: Your cover letter should be no more than one page (about 250 words), including the formatting. We will not require a specific style for the letter, but it should include an appropriate salutation and closing, and be written in a professional tone.

Walden Supply and Demand Model & Aspects of Buyer Behavior Paper
Assignment: Applying the Supply and Demand ModelThe supply and demand model forms the basis of much microeconomic analysis. It combines information about buyers’ preferences for purchasing products or services with information about the sellers’ willingness to supply them. In market-based economies, it is the interaction between buyers and sellers, as illustrated in the demand and supply model, that determines equilibrium prices and output.For this Assignment, you will apply the concepts of the supply and demand model by explaining aspects of buyer behavior, seller behavior, shifts and movements along the demand curve, and market equilibrium. You will also calculate the cross elasticity of demand and describe the effects of government intervention in markets.To prepare for this Assignment:Review this week’s Learning Resources.Refer to the Week 1 Optional Resources on graphing if you need additional support to complete this Assignment.Refer to the Academic Writing Expectations for 1000-Level Courses as you compose your Assignment.By Day 7Submit your responses to the following prompts.Over the past 10–20 years, the use of landline phones has fallen while the use of cell phones and smartphones has increased. Explain how changes in consumer tastes and preferences are affecting the demand functions for each product. Draw graphs for each of the two products (landlines and cell phones/smartphones) illustrating what has happened to the demand curve for each one. Your response should be at least 75 words (1 paragraph) in length; include graphs to support your explanations.Explain why the law of demand is not violated when you observe the quantity demanded of ice cream cones at your local park is lower in December than in July even though the price is higher in July than it is in December. Your response should be at least 75 words (1 paragraph) in length. This week, Super-Save Supermarket lowered the price of apples from $1 to 90 cents per pound. The quantity of apples sold last week was 200 pounds. This week, the quantity sold was 250 pounds. Calculate the price elasticity of demand. Is it elastic, inelastic, or unitary elastic? What happens to total revenue? Your response should be at least 75 words (1 paragraph) in length. Using the information given in the previous question, assume that last week Super-Save Supermarket sold 150 pounds of bananas and this week it sold 120 pounds of bananas. Are bananas and apples complements or substitutes? What is the cross elasticity of demand? Explain your answer. Your response should be at least 75 words (1 paragraph) in length. Farmer Brown plants both soybeans and corn. If the price of soybeans increases and the price of corn remains the same, what do you expect to happen to the amount of acreage that he devotes to planting each crop? How does your answer help to explain the law of supply? Does the supply curve of corn or soybeans shift? Use graphs to illustrate your answer. Your response should be at least 75–150 words (1–2 paragraphs) in length, including graphs with explanations.Amy’s Diner and Joe’s Burger Stop are located in the same neighborhood. Both have similar menus that include hamburgers, french fries, and soft drinks. Assume Amy’s supplier raises the price of hamburger meat, while Joe’s does not. Using the supply and demand model, graphically show and provide a written explanation for each of the following:The equilibrium price and quantity of hamburgers Amy soldThe equilibrium price and quantity of french fries Amy soldThe equilibrium price and quantity of hamburgers Joe soldThe equilibrium price and quantity of soft drinks Joe soldYour response should be at least 150–225 words (2–3 paragraphs) in length, including graphs.In the United States, price floors are commonly used to support farmers, such as for dairy products. Assume several U.S. trading partners impose tariffs on dairy products exported from the United States. The tariffs are effective and are reducing dairy exports from the United States and have pushed the domestic equilibrium price of milk below the price floor.Using a supply and demand model, illustrate what happens to the U.S. domestic price of milk, quantity of milk sold in the United States, and any surplus or shortage of milk. Be sure to support your graph with a written explanation.Your response should be at least 75–150 words (1–2 paragraphs) in length, including the graph and explanation.Note: For each prompt, be sure to reference at least one scholarly source to support your answer. Use the Walden Undergraduate Paper Template, provided in this week’s Learning Resources, to complete this Assignment.
