Trish must be at work exactly 40 hours/week where she earns $10/hour. While at work she can engage in either Hard Work Hours or Easy Work Hours (where Hard Work Hours = 40 – Easy Work Hours). Trish earns a $15/hour commission for each hour of hard work she engages in, and also receives a $200 bonus if she engages in at least 30 hours of hard work in a given week. What is the vertical value of the vertical intercept for Trish’s choice set over (Easy Work, $) bundles?
Maximum total income that Trish can earn = (Wage*Hard work hours) + (Commission*Hard work hours) + Bonus = (10*40) + (15*40) + 200 = 400 + 600 + 200 = $1200
So, the vertical value of the vertical intercept for Trish’s choice set over (Easy Work, $) bundles is $1,200.

Kate earns $300/week which she spends entirely at the grocery store where she buys either food (F) or alcohol (A). Let XF represent the quantity of food Kate purchases, and XA the quantity of alcohol. Let PF = $1 and PA = $3. Illustrate Kate’s budget constraint (place XF on the horizontal axis). What is the vertical value of the vertical intercept for your budget constraint? (Please enter only a number).

I am not sure what i did wrong here:
2,414/ month 35 hour work week
2,414*12= 28,968 Annual
28,968/52= 557.08 Weekly
557.08/35= 15.92 Hourly
15.92*1.5= 23.87 OT
10 extra hours 2 are over 40 so 8 reg 2 OT
8*15.92= 127.33
2*23.87= 47.75 OT
1207+127.33+47.75= 1382.08 However this is wrong ... what did I
do wrong please advise.

Andreas Drauschke and Angie Clark work comparable jobs for comparable pay at department stores in Berlin and suburban Washington, DC. But there is no comparison when it comes to the hours they put in. Mr. Drauschke’s job calls for a 37-hour week with 6 weeks’ annual vacation. His store closes for the weekend at 2 p.m. on Saturday afternoon and stays open one evening each week-a new service in Germany that Mr. Drauschke detests. “I can’t understand that people go...
Quick intuition check via True or False Questions 1. 2. If all prices double and income triples, then the budget line will become steeper There are two goods. You know how much of good 1 a consumer can afford if she spends all of her income on good 1. If you knew the ratio of the prices of the two goods, then you could draw the consumer's budget line without any more information. lf good l is on the horizontal...
