(a) Explain how allocative efficiency is related to the concepts of consumer surplus and producer surplus. Consumer surplus is defined as the highest price consumers are willing to pay for a good minus the price actually paid. As shown in the diagram‚ P1 is the highest price consumers are willing to pay for a good. Pe is the equilibrium price determined by the market. Any consumers are willing to pay price higher than Pe will end up paying Pe. This means they pay less than they expect‚ therefore

Calculating Efficiency. Efficiency (%) = Useful Energy Out x 100 Total Energy In Questions 1) A light bulb takes in 30J of energy per second. It transfers 3J as useful light energy and 27J as heat energy. Calculate the efficiency. 2) A kettle takes in 2000J of energy per second. It transfers 1500J as useful heat energy and 500J is wasted as sound energy. Calculate the efficiency of the kettle. Remember: In the exam they may not

Pareto efficiency‚ or Pareto optimality‚ is a central theory in economics with broad applications in game theory‚ engineering and the social sciences. Given a set of alternative allocations and a set of individuals‚ a movement from one alternative allocation to another that can make at least one individual better off‚ without making any other individual worse off is called a Pareto improvement or Pareto optimization. An allocation of resources is Pareto efficient or Pareto optimal when no further

Efficiency Ratios The efficiency ratio is an indicator of how well Johnson and Johnson (J&J) is run on an organizational wide basis. Efficiency ratios are also defined as asset turnover ratios (Finkler‚ Kovner & Jones‚ 2007). The asset turnover ratio measures how productive J&J is in managing all of its assets to generate Sales. This efficiency ratio is calculated by dividing sales by total assets by total revenue. For year 2010‚ J&J had an asset turnover of 0.6. Comparing J&J’s
