Answer:
a) see attached image
b) Atlantis's opportunity cost of producing one helmet = 200 / 100 = 2 baseballs
c and d) Atlantis's opportunity cost of producing one baseball = 100 / 200 = 0.5 helmets
Zanadu's opportunity cost of producing one baseball = 100 / 400 = 0.25 helmets ⇒ Zanadu has a comparative and absolute advantage in the production of baseballs
e) yes, Atlantis would produce 100 helmets, and if it trades 50 to Zanadu, it will get 150 baseballs in return. So it will gain from trade. If Zanadu produces 400 baseballs and trades 150 of them for 50 helmets, it will also benefit.

Answer:
$855,903.20
Explanation:
Real discounting rate=> i= [i'-f]/[1+f]. Where i is the real interest rate. i' is the nominal interest rate which is given as 5% and f is the rate of inflation
i = (5%-3%)/1+3%)
i = 2/1.3
i = 1.94%
Her after tax earnings = 45,000*(1-0.15) = $38,250
Personal consumption = 25% of this, 38,250*0.75 = $28,688.
We are discounting her earnings back 45 years at 1.94%. The equation will be: 28,688 * {1-(1+0.01940)^-45} / {0.01940}
= 28,688 * {1 - 0.42120322099] / 0.01940
= 28,688 * 29.83488551597938
= 855903.1956824165
= $855,903.20
So, the amount of life insurance necessary for Jenny using the Human Life Value method is $855,903.20
The correct answer is side streets.
If you are in a hurry, it may be better to take a different route and drive through side streets in order to avoid the traffic which is usually present in the more 'popular streets.' However, side streets have a lot of traffic control lights, which may slow down your ride even more.
