Discuss Assignment 6: # 1, Page 526 of Econ.
a. A family buys a new refrigerator durable consumption added to C
b. Aunt Jane buys a new house fixed investment (If) added to I
c. Selling car from inventory has two effects 1. negative change in inventories = negative
inventory investment (Ii) subtracted from I2. Added to C or I or X or G
1 and 2 Cancel each other Net effect zero. Is that ok ? Note the value of car was accounted for
when it was added to inventories

# 1, Page 526 of Econ.d. You buy Pizza none durable consumption
added to Ce. California repaves highway government
purchases added to Gf. Your parents buying French wine has two
effects1. Addition to C2. Addition to Imports M goes up net exports go
down 1 and 2 Cancel each other. Is that ok?
g. Honda expands its factory in Ohio If added to I

#4, Page 526 of Econ. When prices don’t change (2006),
RGDP goes up by as much as NGDP does
When prices go up as much as NGDP does (2007) , RGDP does not change
Part (c) Economic well being is more closely
associated with RGDP than NGDP In 2007, economic well being did not rise

f. NGDP grew more than RGDP because prices went up.

Note
What increases RGDP? Increase in Q %ΔRGDP = %ΔQ
What increases NGDP? Increase in P and increase in Q %ΔNGDP = %ΔQ + %ΔP
Or %ΔNGDP = %ΔRGDP + %ΔP

Relatively speaking, India probably has more household production than USA. So the gap between the true per capita RGDPs (the one that includes household production) of US and India may not be as high as indicated in this table

To prepare yourself for Exam 21. Study Chapters 5, 6 and 23 of your Econ book and
answer the end of the chapter questions.2. Study Section 3.4 though Section 4.2 of your Stat
book (pages 102-143) and answer the end of the section questions. The formulas will not be given to you The binomial table will be given to you
3. Review your notes and the Power Point Slides covering Sections 7 through 12.
4. Review Assignments 3 though 6.
15
Exam 2 consists of
Econ multiple choice questions Econ problems Econ essays Stat short problems/questions Stat longer (more involved) problems
16
Let’s do some sample Stat questions
Question 3.21, Page 111 of Stat P (U) = P (use internet)=0.4 P (NU) = P (not use internet) =0.36 P (DN) = P (don’t know)=.24a) P(U) = 0.4b) Let’s modify it to: What is the lowest
probability that only …
17
Let’s do a picture for part bYou are selecting two individuals
P(U)= 0.4
P (NU) = 0.36
P (DN) = 0.24
P (U) = 0.4
P (NU) = 0.36
P (DN) = 0.24
P (U) = 0.4
P (NU) = 0.36
P (DN) = 0.24
18
Part (b) There are two ways to select one person
who uses internet and one that doesn't 1. What is the probability of the first person
using the internet and the second person not using internet?
O.4 X 0.36 = 0.1442. What is the probability of the first person
not using the internet and the first person does?
0.36 X 0.4 = 0.144 The lowest probability that only one will
use internet = 0.144+0.144=0.288

3.23, page 111 of stat
Two devices to activate the sprinkler The sprinkler will be activated by
device A or device B or both Reliability of A is 0.91 Reliability of B is 0.95 P (sprinkler being activated)=? P (sprinkler being activated)= P (A or
B or both work)
20
Note: You don’t want to double count the case that both devices will work
P (AUB) = union = Probability of A or B or both
P (AUB) = P (A) + P (B) – P (AB)
P (AUB) = 0.91 + 0.95 – (0.91 X 0.95) = 0.9955
21
Let’s do 3.35, Page 123
61% like term limit We select three individuals
22
Part a What is P( none likes term limit)?
0.39 X 0.39 X 0.39 =0.0593 What is P (one likes term limit)?
(0.39 X 0.39 X 0.61) + (0.39 X 0.61 X 0.39) + (0.61 X 0.39 X 0.39) =0.2783
What is P (two likes term limit)? (0.39 X 0.61 X 0.61) + (0.61 X 0.39 X 0.61) +
(0.61 X 0.61 X 0.39) = 0.4354 What is P (all like term limit)?
0.61 X 0.61 X 0.61 = 0.2270

Note: Sum of probabilities = 1, why?

E(x) = μ = Σx * P (x) E(x) = 0.2783 + (2 * 0.4354) + (3 * 0.2270)=
1.83 Variance σ2= Σ (x – μ)2 P (x) σ2= (– 1.83)2 * 0.0593 +(1- 1.83)2 * 0.2783 + (2-
