一、判断题(判断并必须说明理由,必要时可以用图形。

每题4分,共28分。

)1.一国生产其所需要的全部产品而不从事国际贸易,能够使得该国的经济更快地增长。

错误。

国际贸易使得该国生产其具有比较优势的产品并从交换中获益,并没有减少该国的总产出。

相反,国际贸易带来经济增长,这与技术进步的影响类似。

2. A higher rate of saving leads to higher growth indefinitely.False. A higher rate of saving leads to higher growth temporarily but not indefinitely. Since capital is subject to diminishing returns, as the higher saving rate allows more capital to be accumulated, the benefits from additional capital become smaller over time, and so growth slows down.3.From 1950 to 2000, manufacturing employment as a percentage of total employment in theU.S. economy fell significantly. At the same time, manufacturing output experienced slightly more rapid than the overall economy. Policy makers should concern about the decline in the share of manufacturing employment.False. If manufacturing output is rising and the number of workers is declining, then output per worker, or labor productivity, must be rising, and this is beneficial to the economy. After all, the reduction in manufacturing jobs will allow labor resources to move to other industries, increasing total output in the economy.4.You use your $200 paycheck to buy bond in AT&T. This situation represents investment asdefined by a macroeconomist.错误。

经济学原理2(19春)_答案

经济学原理2(19春)_答案

经济学原理 I(2021 年春季学期)期中考试 1(A 卷答案)(2019/4/3)(所有题目答案需写在另发的答题本上,否则无效。

本试卷满分 50 分。

)1.判断以下陈述是否正确,并阐述理由。

(3 分*3 题=9 分)1.1通常将企业的利润看成是“企业家精神”的回报。

和其他生产要素一样,该回报是在竞争性市场上按其边际贡献取得的。

错误。

前半句正确,后半句错误。

利润并非按企业家的边际贡献取得的,而是一种“剩余索取权”。

由于企业家提供了独特的“非竞争性”要素,最终体现在企业产品的独特性上,获得的是一种“垄断性”的回报。

1.2教育的信号理论认为,清华大学的毕业生能获得比其他学校毕业生更高的薪水,是因为清华大学比其他学校拥有更高的教学质量。

错误。

教育的信号理论认为教育的作用是帮助先天能力强的学生发出高质量的信号。

因此清华大学的毕业生能获得更高薪水是因为高质量学生通过选择清华大学才能发出高质量信号。

这种选择机制可能来自于清华大学录取标准高,或者清华大学的课业完成难。

但不一定对应着较高的教学质量。

1.3在市场经济中,每个市场都是由供求力量决定的均衡结果。

所有市场的均衡结果加总成成为经济总的产出和价格。

因此微观经济学足以解释经济整体,不需要有单独考虑经济总产出和价格的宏观经济学。

错误。

所有市场的均衡结果的简单加总忽略了市场之间的相互关联。

这一关联会使得对于整体经济进行分析变得极为困难。

而经济总体的产出和价格的变化规律未必一定要从所有市场的关联中推导出来,实际上某些经济局部的变动相互之间可以抵消。

因此宏观经济学仍然有独立的意义。

2.选择题。

每个题目只有一个正确答案。

(2 分*5 题=10 分)2.1行为经济学中定义的禀赋效应,是指人们对于自己已经拥有的物品的评价(即出售意愿)高于自己尚未拥有时对该物品的评价(即支付意愿)。

以下张三的哪个行为说明了禀赋效应的存在:A.张三愿意花 15 元钱购买一个马克杯,但不愿意以 15 元出售一个马克杯。

清华大学双学位经济学原理期中考试及答案A

清华大学双学位经济学原理期中考试及答案A

经济学原理(2008年春季学期,全校选修课)期中测验2(A卷答案)(2008/5/6)注意:中文回答即可(留学生可用英文)。

请将所有题目的答案写在答题本上并标明A、B 卷,写在本试题册上一律无效。

考试结束后,试题册和答题本一并上交。

一、判断题(判断并简要说明理由,必要时可以用图形。

每题4分,共28分)1.“我们不允许任何人通过付费就可以制造污染。

”(美国前参议员埃德蒙•马斯基的话)错误。

在污染的问题上存在社会收益和成本的权衡,零污染并非社会最优。

向污染者适当收费可以使得污染者将其社会成本考虑在内,达到社会有效率。

2.为了遏制全球变暖问题,每个国家都应该稳定自己现有的二氧化碳排放水平。

错误。

减少(或稳定)二氧化碳总量的排放,并不需要使得每个国家同等程度地减少(或稳定)排放,这样会提高给定排放量下的减排成本。

采取排放许可证等方式,允许减排成本低的的国家进行减排,其并通过出售许可证等方式给予补偿,可以更有效率地达到总水平相同的排放,且各国都受益。

3.集体宿舍的卫生状况坏于单身公寓,原因是集体宿舍住的人多。

错误。

集体宿舍卫生状况坏于单身宿舍,是由于共有地悲剧,即破坏卫生产生了负外部性(或者相反的,打扫卫生产生了正外部性)。

4.对于决定短期内是否停止营业的竞争性企业来说,其固定成本无论如何不能节省,说明这是一个真实的成本。

因此,在做出这一决策时必须将固定成本考虑在内。

错误。

固定成本此时是一种沉没成本,并不影响企业的决策。

因此可以不予考虑。

5.在一个没有垄断力量的(竞争)市场上有正利润的企业必定不在其规模经济处生产;而在一个具有垄断力量的市场上有正利润的企业则可能在其规模经济处生产。

正确。

我们知道,竞争市场上价格等于边际成本,而正利润意味着价格大于平均成本。

因此企业的边际成本必然大于平均成本,而这意味着平均成本上升,必定不在规模经济处。

(另一种推导:反证。

假定在规模经济处,则此时企业增加产量,利润= (P-A TC)*Q,必定上升。

本试卷满分为50分。

I.选择一个正确的答案(每小题4分,共12分)I.1.Suppose more college students major in engineering and computer science. Consider its effect on the market for labor in the computer manufacturing industry. For any given quantity of employment, the marginal product of labor will ; in equilibrium the marginal product of labor will .A.not change; decreaseB.decrease; decreaseC.increase; increaseD.not change; increase or decrease (cannot decide)I.2.活力社区中的一半的居民在一年中的奇数月份挣到1.5万元,在偶数月份挣到0.5万元,另一半居民在奇数月份挣到0.5万元,在偶数月份挣到1.5万元。

安稳社区中的一半居民在一年的每个月中总是挣到1万,另一半居民每个月总是挣到0.5万。

从单独一个月来看,社区的收入差距更小。

从一整年的总收入来看,社区的收入差距更小。

总体上看社区更合意。

A.活力;活力;活力B.安稳;活力;活力C.安稳;安稳;安稳D.活力;安稳;活力I.3.Many years ago, Peggy paid $500 to put together a new record collection. Today, she sold her albums at a garage sale for $100. How do all her actions mentioned above affect current GDP? GDP many years ago?A.Her actions will increase GDP many year ago by $500 but not affect current GDP.B.Her actions will increase GDP many year ago by $500 and increase current GDP by $100.C.Her actions will affect neither current GDP nor GDP many years ago.D.Her actions will increase current GDP by $100 but not affect GDP many years ago.II.判断正误并说明理由(5分)。

收入法GDP(即从收入角度衡量的GDP)和支出法GDP(即从支出角度衡量的GDP)可以不相等。

因为家庭的支出可以大于或者小于收入。

错误。

单独从一个家庭来说,其支出可以大于或者小于收入。

但这里的支出法GDP包括了消费、投资、政府购买和净出口,不仅仅指家庭的消费。

这里的收入法GDP也可能不仅仅是家庭的收入,还包括企业未分配利润。

收入法GDP和支出法GDP必定相等,是因为:第一,支出法GDP必定等于产品法GDP,出于市场等价交换原则;第二;产品法GDP必定等于收入法GDP,出于企业获取的增加值必定分配完毕(包括留利在内)的核算原则。

最终收入法GDP和支出法GDP必定相等。

III. Labor Market and Goods Market (11 pts)Suppose a freeze destroys part of the Florida orange crop.a. Explain what happens to the price of oranges and the marginal product of orange pickers asthe result of the freeze. (2 pts)The price of oranges will (generally) go up, because in the orange market supply decreases. The marginal product of orange pickers will go down, because the other input (oranges on the trees) becomes scarier.b. Suppose the demand for oranges is perfectly elastic . What happens to the equilibrium wageand quantity of orange pickers? Use graphs for both orange market and orange picker market to explain you answers. (4 pts)See the graph below. Since the demand for oranges is perfectly elastic, the price of orange would not change. And since the MPL of orange pickers goes down, the VMPL of/demand for orange pickers will go down. As a result, the equilibrium wage and quantity of orange pickers will go down.c. Suppose the demand for oranges is perfectly inelastic . What happens to the equilibriumwage and quantity of orange pickers? Use graphs for both orange market and orange picker market to explain you answers. (4 pts)See the graph below. Since the demand for oranges is perfectly inelastic, the price of orange would go up but the equilibrium quantity of orange would not change. Since the MPL of orange pickers goes down, then in equilibrium the quantity of orange pickers must go up to keep the quantity of orange in equilibrium at the same level. This in turn requires that the demand for orange pickers will go up. Thus the equilibrium wage and quantity of orange pickers will go up. In other words, the price of oranges goes up so much that it dominates the effect of decreasing MPL and finally make the VMPL go up.d. In general, can you say the freeze is a good news or bad news for orange pickers? (1 pt) No. It can increase or decrease the demand for orange pickers, thus benefit or hurt them.PQ L Q1 Q2 P1=P2 w1w2L1 L2IV. 根据通货膨胀调整电影票价(11分)电影《飘》在1939年上映时的票房收入为2亿美元。

电影《阿凡达》在2009年上映时的票房收入为8亿美元。

1939年一张电影票的平均价格....为0.25美元,2009年一张电影票的平均价格....为8美元。

(1) 按照一种合理的计算方式,两部电影中哪一部的票房收入更高?计算回答。

(4分) 合理的计算方式需要考虑1939年和2009年的价格水平的变化。

根据题目给出的信息,这一价格变化可以通过平均一张电影票的价格变化来体现,即价格上升了8/0.25-1=31倍。

类似的,我们可以用当年的票房收入除以当年的电影票平均价格来计算不变价格的票房收入(也即以平均票价衡量的观影人数)。

则:《飘》的不变价格票房收入为:2/0.25=8(亿人次)《阿凡达》的不变价格票房收入为:8/8=1(亿人次)。

《飘》的不变价格票房收入更高。

《飘》的票价在当年是0.4美元,《阿凡达》的票价在当年是16美元。

(2) 以上信息会改变你在第(1)问的答案吗?如果会,如何改变?如果不会,请说明理由。

(2分)不会。

当我们计算票房收入时,考虑的应该是消除价格水平的影响。

这能通过电影票的平均价格而非单独一部电影的价格更好体现。

单独一部电影相对平均价格的价格,更多反映了消费者偏好或者制作成本的差异,与价格水平无关。

(3) 在一个合理的意义上,哪一部电影是票价更贵的电影?解释你的回答。

你觉得怎样的因素能解释为什么这部电影票价更贵? (3分)《阿凡达》是更贵的电影,因为它相对于当时的平均票价更高,是平均票价的2倍,而《飘》的票价仅是平均票价的0.4/0.25=1.6倍。

(2分)《阿凡达》更贵可能是因为相对于当时的其他电影其制作成本更高,或者是因为观众相对于其他电影更喜欢它。

(1分)(4) 两部电影的实际观影人数各是多少?你认为哪些因素能够解释二者观影人数的差别?(2分)?《飘》的观影人数是:2/0.4=5亿人次。

《阿凡达》的观影人数是:8/16=0.5亿人次。

(1分)这个差别可以用供给和需求来解释。

从需求来看,1939年时人们对于电影的替代品较少,PQ L Q1=Q2w2 w1L2 L1需求较大。
