joja [24]

Desire-based advertising is used to drive people to purchase items based on a desire for it. An example for desire-based advertising is to draw people in to a store based on a sale of an item that they desire. A fear-based advertisment can be for insurance. They advertise against the "what ifs" and "what could happen" if you do not hold car insurance and end up needing it.

The cob Douglas production function is given by Q(K,L)=AK^1.4*L^1.6

Alexeev081 [22]

Part a) The Cob Douglas production function is given as:

$Q(K,L)=AK^{1.4} L^ {1.6 } .$

To show that this function is homogeneous with degree 3, we introduce be a parameter, t.

$Q(tK,tL)=A(tK)^{1.4} (tL)^ {1.6 } .$

Using properties of exponents, we on tinder:

$Q(tK,tL)=At^{1.4}K^{1.4} t^ {1.6 }L^ {1.6 } .$

This implies that:

$Q(tK,tL)=t^{1.4} \times t^ {1.6 }(AK^{1.4} L^ {1.6 } )$

$Q(tK,tL)=t^{1.4 + 1.6}(AK^{1.4} L^ {1.6 } )$

Simplify the exponent of t to get;

$Q(tK,tL)=t^{3}(AK^{1.4} L^ {1.6 } )$

Hence the function is homogeneous with degree, 3

Part b) To verify Euler's Theorem, we must show that:

$K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L}=3AK^{1.4}L^{1.6}$

Verifying from the left:

$K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L} =K(1.4AK^{0.4} L^{1.6}) + L(1.6AK^{1.4} L^{0.6})$

$K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L} =1.4(AK^{1.4} L^{1.6}) + 1.6(AK^{1.4} L^{1.6})$

$K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L} =(1.4 + 1.6)(AK^{1.4} L^{1.6})$

$K\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: K}+L\frac{\partial Q}{\partial \: L} =3(AK^{1.4} L^{1.6})$

With a patent on drug Z27, why would Able Drug Company charge customers $7 per 100 units even though its cost of producing 100 u

Dafna1 [17]

If Able Drug Company already has a patent on a drug called drug Z27, then they have the rights to charge it higher than cost of production. They do this so that they would gain profit from the drug that they have patented and to be able to expand their business more with it.
