did anyone attend the stochastic lectures? what did he say about how much we need to know about the calculations and formulae?

can someone tell me what the dericed factor demands are for perfect complements?? using calculus doesn't lead anywhere so my guess would be x1 = y/2 x2 = y/3 and cost function = 5y/3 never mind ;)

yep that's me and i'm in stephane's tute so you think it won't be heavily maths based?

if people have done them could you please help with tute 8? i' having troubles with review questions 22.5 and 23.4 can't seem to get it at all :(

hi guys i'm starting to get a little more worried the amount of stuff we've learnt is heaps!! so how are you guys preparing for the exam? :worried:

hahaha i think they even used the same question order as last year! when are results expected?

thanks i think i get it! good luck today

ive got a question lecture 9 page 11 why was no conclusion drawn from the PQI? isn't it is PQI <=1 PtXt <= PtXb and so Xb RP Xt ? and from the LPI, if >=1, PtXb >= PbXb so can't we conclude that prices have risen?

yeah i'm starting to think it'd be a little ridicuolous for them to ask us to draw all the different types but i think if they give us a curve then we should be able to deduce properties from it eg some positive sloping engel curve leads us to conclude it's a normal good

and another question if we study from the lecture notes will we be covering everything we need to know, or should we know everything from the textbook eg only price and income elasticities in the notes, but there's a whole heap of other ones in the textbook thanks

got another question for lecture 5 where we go through engel curves and demand functions and stuff are we supposed to know engel curves (x1 against m) and demand functions x1 again p1 for all different types of goods/ cause some of them are pretty complicated and my fiagrams are pretty sucky...

thanks much appreciated did your mate happen to remember what the MC questions were previously like? chances are they wont change much at all

so i take it noone has access to any past papers good to know it's not me having some lamer errors another question - does anyone have any study tips or techniques for this subject? the lecture notes are quite useless on their own, so does everyone read from the textbook? and how are you...

hi guys does anyone have any ideas what the econ200 upcoming MC test is going to be like? all the ones on the webct thing come up with cannot be found errors i'm starting to get a little worried cause the lecture slide diagrams are getting pretty damn complicated the varian ones are so much...

hahaha thank you guys! i wrote down the 2-way anova formulae and got some pity marks :D edit well it seems contrary to popular thought V does not help maintain concentration :rolleyes:

guys i got a question tute 8 q4 Q4. Exactly 10 years ago an insurer sold 100,000 15 year term insurances to a group of lives all aged 25 at the time. Each policy has a sum insured of $30,000, to be paid at the end of the year of death, for a level annual premium of $25. All except 525...

what about theiele's lamer equation? think that'll be put in there? and a side note, i wouldn't count the variances out completeley was reading over some tutorials and noticed they could give some sample data - think it was bilbies or something and ask you to calculate variance from that
