Numerical exam questions for Environmental Economics Spring 2006 Krister Hjalte Question 2. (29/3 1998) The inverse demand function for a non-renewable resource is Pt = a- bRt‚ where Pt is the market price and Rt the extraction in period t. The total gross benefit from extracting this resource can be written as an integral The extraction cost Ct= cRt‚ where c is a constant. Total available amount of the resource is denoted by S. From a social point of view we want to maximise the net benefits from

Differential association theory argues that we learn deviant behavior in precisely the same manner we learn about conventional behaviors: from our primary contact groups such as our peers‚ family‚ and coworkers. This theory states that we become more deviant; which is nonconformity to a given set of norms in a community or society‚ when exposed to higher levels of deviant persons and influences. I believe this theory best explains underage drinking on college campuses. This is because individuals

Error Analysis 1 REz z* z z 0.000003 0.000012 4 0.25 In the practice of numerical analysis it is important to be aware that computed solutions are not exact mathematical solutions. The precision of a numerical solution can be diminished in several subtle ways. Understanding these difficulties can often guide the practitioner in the proper implementation and/or development of numerical algorithms. Definition 1.1 Suppose x is an approximation to x*. The absolute error is Ex = |x*

1. What are the current challenges faced by Bombardier? The main problem that Bombardier was facing was to find out how to implement an ERP system that would contribute to the large inherited data and processes between different sectors of the company. Due to the efficiency and the lack of integration of their legacy information systems‚ at this point Bombardier was facing compatibility issues with their systems. 2. What were the strong points in the second implementation process and what areas
