YASHARI earns $27,000 per year, is single, and lives in Wyoming. She has $7000 in subsidized loans and another $19,000 in unsubsidized loans. She is trying to save up an emergency fund of at least 6 months’ take-home pay, so she’s torn about how much she should devote to her student loans and how much to the emergency fund every month. Yashari’s monthly take-home pay is $1850. What percentage of her paycheck will go toward student loans if she chooses standard repayment? Does that payment amount seem reasonable? Why or why not?

Which plan has the longest repayment period? How long will Yashari be paying her student loans?

How do you think Yashari should prioritize between her emergency fund goal and her student loan payments?

Which repayment plan do you think Yashari should select? Why?

Suppose the marginal damage and marginal benefit curves in a polluted neighborhood are md = p/3 and mb = 4 – p. also, suppose that transactions costs are low, so that the consumers and the firm can bargain. we saw that in this case, the socially-optimal level of pollution is achieved. start by computing the socially-optimal p. then, for each of the following cases, compute the amount of money transferred through the bargaining process, and indicate who pays whom (i. e., whether consumers pay the firm, or vice versa). also, compute the gains to each party relative to the status quo (i. e., the starting point of the bargaining process).a)consumers have the right to clean air; firm is dominant in the bargaining process. b)consumers have the right to clean air; consumers are dominant in the bargaining process. c)firm has the right to pollute; firm is dominant in the bargaining process. d)firm has the right to pollute; consumers are dominant in the bargaining proces
