Semester page for ECON4120 - Spring 2010

Answers to the problems suggested for this week can be found together with the answers to the seminar problems under the heading "11 May answers". Note that in the version handed out in class on the 11th there was a bad misprint in equation (6) on page 4. It should be z (y-x) = mu (y-x), with y-x as a factor on both sides of the equation.

One person still hasn't picked up his copy of the term paper from 13 April. If you are that person, you can get it back from the reception on the 12th floor.

About the exam: The exam in ECON3120/4120 is an "open book exam". This means that you are allowed to bring all written material that you want: books, notes, etc. (but books that you haven't read yet are unlikely to be of any help). You are also allowed to use calculators (but not laptop PCs!).

Good luck!

There will be two extra lectures in this course: Monday 10 May, 14:15-16:00 in Auditorium 2, ES; Tuesday 11 May, 14:15-16:00 in Auditorium 3, ES. Note the change in time and place for the Tuesday lecture - it will not be 12:15-14:00 as previously announced. In addition to discussing elasticities I will also discuss the solutions of the following exam problems: 48, 67, 79, 106, 111, and 143(a). You might also like to try your hand at problems 16, 39, 118, 130, 141. Arne Strøm

Do you have any questions or need to talk about mathematics? You are welcome to knock on my door (room 1119) at any time. I'll not always be in, but I will try to be available on Thursdays between 11:15 and 12:00. A.S.
