Question: Problem One: At time t = 0, a country has a total population P(0) = 80, 000 and has U(0) = 30, 000 urban residents.





Problem One: At time t = 0, a country has a total population P(0) = 80, 000 and has U(0) = 30, 000 urban residents. Some 12 years later, at time t = 12, the respective totals are P(12) = 110, 000 and U(12) = 40, 000. Please find:
(a) The continuous rates of growth of the urban population and the total national population between t = 0 and t = 12;
(b) The pace of urbanization between t = 0 and t = 12. Be sure to explain the pace of urbanization measure that you have used in answering.
(c) If the continuous rates of growth of the national and urban populations stay fixed until time t = 15, what will be the ratio of U(15)/P(15) at that time? By stay fixed, I mean that the rates of growth that were in effect from t = 0 to t = 12 stay in effect until t = 15.
Problem Two: This problem has to do with a two-sector model of manufacturing and agricultural labor markets in equilibrium, with full employment. By "full employment", I mean that everyone in the labor force has a job, whether in manufacturing or in agriculture.
Let DM = 65 ? 4 wM be the demand for manufacturing labor, which depends on the manufacturing wage wM, and let DA = 120 ? wA be the demand for labor in agriculture, with wA being the agricultural wage. There is a total of L = 120 workers in the labor force as a whole.
Please find:
(a) The economy-wide equilibrium wage;
(b) The number of workers employed in manufacturing EM and in agriculture EA;
(c) The total wages paid to manufacturing workers and to agricultural workers (the "wage bills"); and
(d) The total value of production in manufacturing and in agriculture.
(e) Summarize by drawing a carefully-labelled graph depicting your answers to (a)-(d).
Problem Three: This problem extends Problem Two. It also has to do with a two-sector model of manufacturing and agricultural labor markets?the difference is that the economy is not in equilibrium. However, everyone in the labor force has a job, either in manufacturing or in agriculture.
Again let DM = 65 ? 4 wM be the demand for manufacturing labor, which depends on the manufacturing wage wM, and let DA = 120 ? wA be the demand for labor in agriculture, with wA being the agricultural wage. There is a total of L = 120 workers in the labor force as a whole. This is exactly the same set-up as in Problem Two.
Assume that the number of workers employed in manufacturing is fixed at EM = 9. Please find:
(a) The wage rate wM in manufacturing;
(b) The number of workers employed in agriculture EA and the agricultural wage wA;
(c) The total amounts paid to manufacturing workers and to agricultural workers (the "wage bills"); and
(d) The total value of production in manufacturing and in agriculture.
(e) Summarize by drawing a carefully-labelled graph depicting your answers to (a)-(d). (f) Finally, compare your answer to part (d) with its equilibrium counterpart in part (d) of Problem Two. What is the economy-wide loss in the value of production, relative to its value in equilibrium (as calculated in Problem Two)





Background: The J&J Corn Growers is a family-owned, 200-acre farm that grows and sells Nebraska corn to grocery stores, wholesalers, and small roadside stands. J&J has 5 full-time employees and hires 75 to 100 seasonal workers for the harvest. For the past six summers, you have picked corn for J&J.

The company's bank statement for the month of October showed that the company had a cash balance of $17,230 as at October 31. A comparison of the bank statement and the accounting records revealed the following information: -Bank service and credit card charges for the month were $65 The cash receipts for October 31 amounted to $3,600 and had been deposited in the night drop slot at the bank on the evening of October 31. These were not reflected on the bank statement for October. -During the last week of the month, one of South Raver's customers made an electronic payment directly to South River's bank in the amount of $2,740. Because the customer had not notified South River of the payment, the company was unaware of it until it received the bank statement for October South River had written and mailed out cheques with a value of $6.200 that had not yet cleared the bank account A cheque for $2 610 from one of South River's customers that had been deposited during the last week of October was returned with the bank statement as "NSF."
