Identify the title: And then she began to dance, a slow sensuous movement; the smoke of a hundred cigars clinging to her like the thinnest of veils. She seemed like a fair bird-girl girdled in veils calling to me from the angry surface of some gray and threatening sea. I was transported. . .And all the while the blonde continued dancing, smiling faintly at the big shots who watched her with fascination, and faintly smiling at our fear. . . . As the dancer flung herself about with a detached expression on her face, the men began reaching out to touch her . . .and above her red, fixed-smiling lips I saw the terror and disgust in her eyes, almost like my own terror and that which I saw in some of the other boys.  

Identify the title of the quote: “That was why Chicken Little was missing for three days and didn’t get to the embalmer’s until the fourth day, by which time he was unrecognizable to almost everybody who once knew him, and even his mother wasn’t deep down sure, except that it just had to be him since nobody could find him. When she saw his clothes lying on the table in the basement of the mortuary, her mouth snapped shut, and when she saw his body her mouth flew wide open again and it was seven hours before she was able to close it and make the first sound.”  

Identify the author: Much acclaimed at her death in 2019, this winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature writes of loneliness, pain, sudden inexplicable violence but also about endurance and great love. She writes often of the racism in American society with characters who face difficult lives. Her highly-honored novel Beloved was made into a movie by Oprah Winfrey.  

We refer to a “game” every time we consider a scenario in which the action of one agent (either individual, firm, or government) affects other agents’ well-being. Elements of the game: (1) Player: The set of individuals, firms, governments or countries, that interact with one another. We consider games with 2 or more players. (2) Strategy: A complete plan describing which actions a player chooses in each possible situation (contingency). (3) Payoff: What every player obtains under each possible strategy path. Consider 2 people (i.e., Bob and Nathan) who are arrested by the police and are placed in different cells. They cannot communicate with each other. The police separately offer to each of them the deal represented in the following matrix (where positive values indicate the amount of fine that causes disutility): The “Nash Equilibrium (NE)”, named after Nash (1950) builds on the notion that every player finds her “best response” to each of her rivals’ strategies. A strategy profile is a NE if every player chooses the best response to her rivals’ strategies. The strategic profile of two Nash Equilibrium (NE) in the above game are: The first Nash Equilibrium (NE):  (Nathan does not confess and pays $2000 as a fine and Bob does not confess and pays $2000 as a fine) — case 1. The second Nash Equilibrium (NE): (Nathan confesses and pays $3000 and Bob confesses and pays $3000 as a fine) — case 4. Based on the above results, Two individuals (i.e., Nathan and Bobs) , charged with jointly committing a crime, would be best off in this setting if neither confess (i.e., the first Nash Equilibrium (NE); however, individually rational behavior leads to a jointly inefficient outcome (i.e., both confess which is the second Nash Equilibrium (NE)). The name of this well-known game in game theory is ______________________.

In the above figure, The number of firms in monopoly is (2) _________________________

Hint: A price-taker is an individual or company that must accept prevailing prices in a market, lacking the market share to influence market price on its own. In the above figure, a firm in perfect competition is price-taker (7) ____________ (True or False)

The excess capacity theorem states that, in equilibrium, a monopolistically competitive firm will produce an output _________ the one that would minimize its unit costs of production. 

Suppose an industry is made up of ten firms, all with equal sales. The two-firm concentration ratio of that industry is _____.
