Long Response.   Please analyze the 2024 presidential election, and in the analysis provide a paragraph about each of these three items: What happened in 2020; The 2024 Electoral College landscape for the candidates; and  Expectations about each candidate’s performance among demographic groups, including the campaigns’ tactics for reaching their goals.

Information for questions 13-19 The following figure shows the cost curves for a firm in a perfectly competitive market. Only exact answers are accepted. For numeric questions, enter 0, if the question cannot be answered with the information provided. In particular, since the figure does not have a grid, do not try to approximate any numbers using its scale. You can only use the numbers provided on the figure to perform an exact calculation. If you feel that an exact calculation is not possible for a given question, then the correct answer would be 0, or “none of the above.”   The last three questions in this group assume that we have reached the long-run equilibrium, following the process of the previous question. In particular, we’ll assume that the free entry or free exit of firms has stopped, the market is in equilibrium, and demand is sufficient to accommodate many (>100, say) firms.   In the long-run equilibrium, how many firms will operate in the market?

Information for questions 2-4 The following are some equations that may be useful for this group of questions. The third equation assumes that we graph isoquants and isocost lines with labor on the horizontal axis, and capital on the vertical axis. Marginal Product of Labor:

Information for questions 20-22 Suppose that demand for a monopolist is given by Q = 2100 – 20 P. The monopolist’s total cost function is given by TC = 100 + 50 Q + Q2 / 200.   Derive an equation for Marginal Revenue, as a function of quantity Q. Enter the equation in the blank provided. To be graded correctly, your answer must be exactly in the format “MR=A±BQ”, where A and B are whole or decimal numbers for you to calculate, and it’s for you to decide whether it should be “+” or “-” before the number B. Note that there are no spaces, and MR and Q are in capitals. So, for example, answer “MR=26-4.1Q” would be accepted (if the numbers 26 and 4.1 were the correct ones, and the sign was -), but answer “MR = 26 – 4.1Q” would not be accepted (it has spaces), nor would answer “mr=26-4.1q” (did not capitalize MR and Q).
