In a small country near the baltic sea, there are only three commodities: potatoes, meatballs, and jam. prices have been remarkably stable for the last 50 years or so. potatoes cost 2 crowns per sack, meatballs cost 4 crowns per crock, and jam costs 6 crowns per jar. (a) write down a budget equation for a citizen named gunnar who has an income of 360 crowns per year. let p stand for the number of sacks of potatoes, m for the number of crocks of meatballs, and j for the number of jars of jam consumed by gunnar in a year. (b) the citizens of this country are in general very clever people, but they are not good at multiplying by 2. this made shopping for potatoes excruciatingly difficult for many citizens. therefore it was decided to introduce a new unit of currency, such that potatoes would be the numeraire. a sack of potatoes costs one unit of the new currency while the same relative prices apply as in the past. in terms of the new currency, what is the price of meatballs? . (c) in terms of the new currency, what is the price of jam? . (d) what would gunnar’s income in the new currency have to be for him to be exactly able to afford the same commodity bundles that he could afford before the change? . (e) write down gunnar’s new budget equation. is gunnar’s budget set any different than it was before the change?

An employer who is considering hiring eva has asked donna, eva’s former supervisor, for a report on eva. in truth, eva’s work for donna has been only average. however, eva is donna’s friend, and donna knows that eva probably will not get the job if she says anything negative about eva, and donna knows that eva desperately needs the job. further, donna knows that if the situation were reversed, she would not want eva to mention her deficiencies. nevertheless, it has been donna’s policy to reveal the deficiencies of employees when she has been asked for references by employers, and she knows that some of eva’s faults may be bothersome to this particular employer. finally, this employer has leveled with donna in the past when donna has asked for a report on people who have worked for him. should donna reveal deficiencies in eva’s past performance? (remember to use one of the three moral theories acceptable for this test to solve this dilemma. any discussion of any personal opinion, religious perspective, or theory other than the moral theories acceptable for this test will result in a score of "0" for this question.)
