Nope it doesn't get scaled down. Most kids rote learn journal entries/relied on perdisco and get raped in finals.

Why is it 1400? Since the contractor will want to maximise profit, wouldn't he ask for $1500, which is the highest reservation price out of the two neighbours? Unless I misread the question...

Incentive principle. The buyer has no desire to build the driveway if the benefit does not exceed the cost.

what the answer to that question.
where they give you the information that 2 company's marginal cost are equal. and ask you what the profit maximizing point is.
answers are between make price elasticity the same or make the marginal revneue equal.

I originally had price elasticity, then I changed to make marginal revenues equal

"Incentive principle"?? In pertinence to the cost-benefit principle, an individual will take an action if the benefit of that action is at least as great as the cost. As such, the neighbour will agree to the construction of the driveway as long as the cost of it does not exceed her reservation price. If you look at the demand curve of a good, a consumer will agree to buy the good as long as the cost of the good does not exceed his or her's reservation price. If the cost equals the reservation price, the consumer will still agree to buy the good, and the economic profit consequent of the transaction yields the producer's surplus. That is why the demand curve is essentially the marginal benefit curve.
