Would you expect total utility to rise or fall with additional consumption of a good? Why?
Jeremy is deeply in love with Jasmine. Jasmine lives where cell phone coverage is poor, so he can either call her on the land-line phone for five cents per minute or he can drive to see her, at a roundâ€”trip cost of 2 in gasoline money. He has a total of 10 per week to spend on staying in touch. To make his preferred choice, Jeremy uses a handy utilimometer that measures his total utility from personal visits and from phone minutes. Using the values in Table 6.6, figure out the points 011 Jeremys consumption choice budget constraint (it may be helpful to do a sketch) and identify his utility-maximizing point.
The rules of politics are not always the same as the rules of economics. In discussions of setting budgets for government agencies, there is a strategy called closing the Washington Monument. When an agency faces the unwelcome prospect of a budget cut, it may decide to close a high-visibility attraction enjoyed by many people (like the Washington Monument). Explain in terms of diminishing marginal utility why the Washington Monument strategy is So misleading. Hint: If you are really trying to make the best of a budget cut, should you cut the items in your budget with tile highest marginal utility or line lowest marginal utility? Does the Washington Monument strategy cut the items with the highest marginal utility or line lowest marginal utility?
1.(a) Suppose a consumer derives satisfaction from consuming hamburgers and hot dogs.How will the budget line change when the consumer is offered a "buy two, get one free" deal for hotdogs (limit one free hot dog). Please show the changed budget line on the graph given below. (b) Please explain how “Buy one get one free” is different from a half price (50% off) sale. Note:- Do not provide handwritten solution.

Those goods’ marginal utilities will: a. increase and then eventually decrease b. decrease and then eventually increasec. increase.d. decrease.e. not change.

PS2(3d) Question: d – Only!!! d. Show with Equations and a Graph what happens to the Demand Curve if Income increases to 100? Using the Bartleby’s Expert Solutions for Previous Questions a & b ↓ Previous Questions a & b: Already Answered!!! What is the Consumer’s Utility Maximizing Combination of Goodx & Goody & Why? Bartleby’s Expert Answer: Consumer’s Utility Maximizing Combination is: qx = 4.8 & qy = 2.4 What is qx at px = 15? Bartleby’s Expert Answer: At px = 15 qx = 3.6 Given: Consumer’s Utility Function → U = 4qx * qy qx = Quantity Demanded for Goodx qy = Quantity Demanded for Goody Marginal Rate of Substitution → MRS = qy / qx Consumer’s Current Income → I = 60 Price of Goodx → px = 10 Price of Goody → py = 5 Answers / Information by A Bartleby’s Expert from Previous Questions Equation for Budget Line is: 10qx + 5qy = 60 At Optimum, MRS = px / py Therefore, qx / qy = 10/5 qx / qy = 2 qx = 2qy Inserting…
4. URGENT Given that maximize utility of two goods, x and y, is where MUx/Px=MUy/Py MUx/MUy=Px/Py , where MU is marginal utility, and P is price. a. Explain what happens to the marginal utility of x, when more of x is consumed. b. Explain what a rational person should do when MUx/Px>MUy/Py , and how each MU, and MU/P changes or not. c. Graph and explain the intercepts and the slope of the budget line (constraint) when the budget is 100 and the price of x is 5 and the price of y is 4. d. Graph and explain an indifference curve that is tangent to a budget line. This is a general graph with no numbers.
