The rules of politics are not always the same as the rules of economics. In discussions of setting budgets for government agencies, there is a strategy called closing the Washington Monument. When an agency faces the unwelcome prospect of a budget cut, it may decide to close a high-visibility attraction enjoyed by many people (like the Washington Monument). Explain in terms of diminishing marginal utility why the Washington Monument strategy is So misleading. Hint: If you are really trying to make the best of a budget cut, should you cut the items in your budget with tile highest marginal utility or line lowest marginal utility? Does the Washington Monument strategy cut the items with the highest marginal utility or line lowest marginal utility?

TopGames’ economist realizes they have two groups of customers: the 2,000 hard-core fans of this game who will pay up to $150 a year to be able to play this game; and the 10,000 casual gamers who will pay up to $50 a year to play this game. If TopGames can NOT price discriminate, what is its profit-maximizing price? What is its profit? a. Price = $50; Profit = negative $100,000 b. Price = $50; Profit = $300,000 c.

Assume you have your car broken down just before the weekend. You value your weekend trip as muchas v and if you have to stay home you get the zero utility. There are two dealerships in your town. Atthe beginning of the day they simultaneously choose a price for repair. Dealers know that when you cometo one of them and observe the price, you can always call to another dealer to make an inquiry about hisprice. The call is costless. The other dealer, however, can be occupied for this day. Assume, this happenswith probability which is a common knowledge (but the dealers do not know whether the other dealer isoccupied or not). Assume zero repair cost for the dealer and find a symmetric equilibrium of the game.
