Answer:
... whereas the fish in the private pond are <u>rival in consumption</u> and excludable.
... the fish in the river are an example of <u>common resource</u>, and the fish in the private pond are an example of <u>private good.</u>
<em>* the first sentence is wrong, the fish in the river are nonexcludable since anyone can fish on the river, or at least try to.</em>
Explanation:
If a good is rival in consumption, it means that if one person consumes it, it will lower the ability of another person to consume the good.
If a good is excludable, ten it can only be consumed by those that are willing and able to pay for it.
When a good is both nonexcludable and rival in consumption, it s a common resource.
A private good is both rival in consumption and excludable

Explanation:
The quantity theory of money states that there is a proportional relationship between the money supply and the general level of prices. An increase in the money supply will increase the general level of prices in the same proportion (called inflation).

So if inflation increases, the nominal inflation rate will increase to keep the real interest rate the same.

Answer:
33.33%
Explanation:
Let weight of T-bill be x, therefore weight of stock will be 1-x
Portfolio = Weight of stock*Beta of stock + Weight of T-bills*Beta of T-bills
1 = (1-x)*1.5 + x*0
1 = 1.5 - 1.5x
x = 0.5/1.5
x = 0.3333
x = 33.33%
Therefore, the percentage of the portfolio invested in treasury bills is 33.33%.
