Answer to Question 1

Unemployment compensation is a state government transfer program that pays cash benefits for a certain period of time to laid-off workers who have worked for a specified period of time for a covered employer.

Answer to Question 2

a. By accepting this offer, you will gain 2 (10  8).
b. Yes. By accepting this offer, you will gain 8 (10  2). If you choose to accept an offer from a different seller, your surplus will be lower. By accepting the lowest ask price of 2, you will maximize your surplus from this trade.
