- For this question, assume that indifference curves are strictly convex, consumption andleisure are normal goods, and the optimal amounts of consumption, leisure, and labor arealways positive. A wage increase ______. (SE = substitution effect; IE = income effect)(a) increases labor supply via the SE and decreases labor supply via the IE(b) decreases labor supply via the SE and decreases labor supply via the IE(c) increases labor supply via the SE and increases labor supply via the IE(d) decreases labor supply via the SE and increases labor supply via the IE(e) Can’t tell without knowing the utility functionKarina is able to select her weekly work hours. When a new busway route opens up and starts to operate immediately, it cuts one hour off Karina’s total daily commute to work. If both leisure and income are normal goods, what is the effect of the shorter commute on Karina’s work time? Hint: Draw the budget constraint before and after new busway route opens up and explain what happen. You may set up Karina’s initial condition hypothetically. Following, describe about substitution and income effect.A person is more likely to increase labor supply in response to an increase in the real wage, the ________ is the income effect and the ________ is the substitution effect.
- Consider the market for Netflix Subscriptions. Show graphically and explain using economic intuition, what happens to the market price and quantity in each of the following 3. Bruno can spend his income on two different goods: smoothies and energy bars. For each of the following three situations, decide if the given consumption bundle is within Bruno’s consumption possibilities. Then decide if it lies on the budget line or not. a) Smoothies cost $2 each, and energy bars cost $3 each. Bruno has income of $60. He is considering a consumption bundle containing 15 smoothies and 10 energy bars.b) Smoothies cost $2 each, and energy bars cost $5 each. Bruno has income of $110. He is considering a consumption bundle containing 20 smoothies and 10 energy bars. c) Smoothies cost $3 each, and energy bars cost $10 each. Bruno has income of $50. He is considering a consumption bundle containing 10 smoothies and 3 energy bars. 4. In each of the following situations, describe the substitution…This week Sara’s income falls from $12 to $9 a week, while the price of popcorn isunchanged at $3 a bag and the price of a smoothie is unchanged at $3.g.

What is the effect of the fall in Sara’s income on the relative price of a smoothiein terms of popcorn? What is the slope of Sara’s new budget line if it is drawnwith smoothies on the x-axis?I already have parts 1,2,3. I just need help with parts 4 and 5. Robinson Crusoe lives in an island. There are onlytwo food sources in this island: coconut and berries. There is no money in the island but Robinsonuses his time to collect coconuts and berries. He sleeps 8 hours in a day. Collecting a coconut takes2 hours. Picking a pound of berries takes one hour. 1. Considering the food collection times as the prices in the island, write the budget line equationand draw Robinson’s budget line graphically. Specify the intercepts and the slope in the budgetline on the graph.Robinson falls from coconut tree and injures his leg. After the injury collecting coconut takes longer.He can only collect a coconut in 4 hours, but he can still pick berries at the same pace as before. 2. What happens to Robinson’s budget line? Show on the graph. Robinson’s injury makes him more sleepy. Now he sleeps 12 hours in a day. 3. What happens to Robinson’s budget line? Show on the graph.Two weeks after the…

Availability of goodsAkua is a School of Agriculture graduate and consumes 2 goods: Yoghurt and Bread. Akua also earns a typical student income from the parents, GHS 400 a month. She can either spend it all on Yoghurts and get 50, or she can spend it all on Bread and get 200 loaves. a. Given this information, construct the equation for Akua’s Budget Line. c. Akua gets a research grant and her income increases to GHS 800 per month. What is the new equation of her budget line? What if income stays constant at GHS 400 and the price of Yoghurts increase to GHS10? d. Assume that prices are the same as used in part a.

- For this problem, assume that Joe has $80 to spend on books and movies each month and that both goods must be purchased whole (no fractional units). Movies cost $8 each, and books cost $20 each. Joe’s preferences for movies and books are summarized by the following information: MOVIES BOOKS NO. PER MONTH TU MU MU/S NO. PER MONTH TU MU MU/S 1 50 — — 1 22 — — 2 80 — — 2 42 — — 3 100 — — 3 52 — — 4 110 — — 4 57 — — 5 116 — — 5 60 — — 6 121 — — 6 62 — — 7 123 — — 7 63 — — a. Fill in the figures for marginal utility and marginal utility per dollar for both movies and books. b. Are these preferences consistent with the law of diminishing marginal utility? Explain briefly. c. Given the budget of $80, what quantity of books and what quantity of movies will maximize Joe’s level of satisfaction? Explain briefly. d. Draw the budget…Suppose housing constitutes 45% of the typical basket of goods for a typical consumer, education constitutes 3%, and all other goods make up the remaining 52%. Assume the price of housing rises by 4%, the price of education falls by 10%, and prices remain constant for all other goods. Based on the information given, we can definitely say Select one: a.because the price of education fell by more than the price of housing rose, the consumer price index (CPI) must have decreased. b.the CPI is higher than in the previous year. c.if consumers get a 4% pay raise, they are worse off in terms of their real income compared to inflation as measured the CPI. d.because housing is a luxury (as is education), consumers are certainly no worse off in terms of their real wages as measured by the CPI. e.the CPI is unchanged from the previous year.Consumption when young and consumption whenold are both normal goods for Seymour, a workersaving for retirement.
