Answer:

1. Inside the dorm room, the movies are <em>Non-Rival</em> which means that one person can watch the movie and it will not diminish the ability of others to watch as well.

Also as they are all in the same dorm, the showing of the movie is <em>Non-Excludable</em> as well because no one can stop the other from watching.

Public good is both Non-Rival and Non-Excludable so the showing of a movie IS a public good.

2.

Musashi   Sean    Bob   Eric   Total Willingness to pay

10   9   8   3   30

8   7   6   2   23

6   5   4   1   16

4   3   2   0   9

2   1   0   0   3

The optimal number of movies that can be rented is dependent on their total willingness to pay. If their Total willingness to pay for the movie is above $8 which is the cost of a movie, then they will get it. From the table, the fifth movie is below the price of $8 so they <u>should rent 4 movie</u>s.

3. If they rent 4 movies and there are 4 of them then the cost per person is;

= (8 *4)/4 people

= 24/4

= $8

This means that each roommate will pay <u>$8</u>.

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

-1.33

Explanation:

Cross price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded of good X to changes in price of good Y.

Cross price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded of good X / percentage change in price of good Y

Percentage change in quantity demanded = (1700 / 1350) - 1 = 0.2593 = 25.93%

Percentage change in price = (1.65 / 2.05) - 1 = -0.1951 = -19.51%

25.93% / -19.51% = -1.33
