Practice these randomly selected questions to test your readiness.
Question 1
A consumer's indifference curve is represented by the equation u(x,y) = 2x + 3y. If the consumer's initial \endowment is (x0, y0) = (10, 20), and the price of good x is ₦5, while the price of good y is ₦3, what is the consumer's optimal bundle?
Question 2
A firm's \cost function is given by C = 2L + 3K. If the firm's current inputs are L = 10 and K = 5, what is the firm's current \cost?
Question 3
A firm's revenue function is given by R = 100L + 200K. If the price of labor (L) is ₦100 per unit and the price of capital (K) is ₦200 per unit, calculate the total revenue of producing 50 units of output.
Question 4
A monopolist faces a demand curve given by Q = 100 - 2P. The marginal \cost curve is MC = 10. What is the profit-maximizing price?
Question 5
Suppose a firm is operating in a perfectly competitive market with a given market demand curve and a given market supply curve. If the firm's marginal revenue (MR) curve intersects the market demand curve at a point where the quantity demanded is 100 units, and the market price is ₦100, what is the firm's marginal \cost (MC) at this point?
Question 6
A firm is considering investing in a new project with the following cash flows: Year 0: ₦100,000 (initial investment), Year 1: ₦50,000 (revenue), Year 2: ₦75,000 (revenue), Year 3: ₦0 (salvage value). If the firm's \cost of capital is 10%, what is the net present value (NPV) of the project?
Question 7
A firm's production function is given by Q = 100L^0.5K^0.5. If the price of labor (L) is ₦100 per unit and the price of capital (K) is ₦200 per unit, calculate the marginal product of labor.
Question 8
A country's balance of payments account is given by the following equation: BOP = \( X - M \) + \( F - I \) + \( S - T \). If the country's current account balance is ₦100, the capital account balance is ₦200, and the government's budget deficit is ₦300, what is the country's overall balance of payments?
Question 9
A country's GDP is ₦100 billion. The government decides to increase the price of a good by 10%. What is the new GDP?
Question 10
A firm's production function is given by Q = 2L^0.5 K^0.5. If the firm's current inputs are L = 16 and K = 9, what is the firm's current output?
Question 11
A firm's production function is given by Q = 100L^0.5K^0.5. If the price of labor (L) is ₦100 per unit and the price of capital (K) is ₦200 per unit, calculate the total \cost of producing 100 units of output.
Question 12
A consumer's indifference curve is represented by the equation u(x,y) = x^2 + 2y^2. If the consumer's initial \endowment is (x0, y0) = (10, 20), and the price of good x is ₦5, while the price of good y is ₦3, what is the consumer's optimal bundle?
Question 13
The following table shows the production schedule of a firm producing two goods, X and Y. U\sing the data in the table, calculate the opportunity \cost of producing one more unit of good X.
Question 14
A country's GNP at market price is ₦1,500,000. If the value added tax (VAT) rate is 10%, calculate the GNP at factor \cost.
Question 15
A firm is considering investing in a new project with the following cash flows: Year 0: ₦100,000 (initial investment), Year 1: ₦50,000 (revenue), Year 2: ₦75,000 (revenue), Year 3: ₦0 (salvage value). If the firm's \cost of capital is 10%, what is the internal rate of return (IRR) of the project?
