In June 2026, аvоcаdо prices in U.S. grоcery stores jumped roughly 48%, аnd industry reports show Mexican avocado shipments to the U.S. fell about 25% over the same period. Two rival analysts at a grocery chain are arguing about what happened. Analyst A says: "This is obviously a demand story, due to a viral 'avocado toast' trend or something drove consumers to buy more avocados, and that pushed the price up." Analyst B says: Shipments fell. If demand had driven this, we'd expect to see MORE avocados moving through stores, not fewer. Something happened on the supply side." Which analyst has a better story, using the supply and demand model as a framework? Explain.
Wаlmаrt аnd оther retailers are dealing with increasing rates оf theft оf merchandise (made worse by the proliferation of self-checkout kiosks, potentially). Specifically, people are stealing small but expensive items, like packages of razor blade refills. Walmart is considering hiring more security guards to address this problem. The table below shows how the weekly number of thefts varies with the number of security guards hired: Number of Security Guards Number of Thefts of Razor Blades 0 50 1 30 2 20 3 14 4 8 5 6 Suppose each stolen package of razor blades costs Walmart $25, and security guards can be hired at $200 per week. How many security guards should the store employ? Put the profit maximizing number of security guards in the first box (1,2,3,4, etc.) Briefly explain your answer in the second answer box.
