- Suppose that a consumer has a choicebetween two goods, X and Y. If the price of X is $2 and the priceof Y is $3, how much of X and Y does the consumer purchaseper period, given an income of $17 per period? Use the followinginformation about marginal utility:Units MUX MUY1 10 52 8 43 2 34 2 25 1 2Sanjay won a poker game against his friends. Now he has to choose between $600 (the winnings) and the chance to play a new game. In this new game, Sanjay has a 50% chance of winning nothing and a 50% chance of winning $1000. The following graph presents the utility function of Sanjay with respect to money: 1. By how much money would his winnings need to increase or decrease so that Sanjay isindifferent between the $600 and the new game? At a different table, Juan wins $800 in a blackjack game. Similarly, he has to choose between $800 or the chance to win a new game. In this game, Juan has a 45% chance of winning nothing and a 55% chance of winning $1000. The following graph presents the utility function of Juan with respect to money: 2. By how much money would his winnings need to increase or decrease so that Juan is indifferent between the $800 and the new game? Please enter a positive number for an increase or a negative number for a decrease.4. Suppose a person has $8 to spend only on apples and bananas. Apples 1 cost $0:4 each, and bananas cost $0:1 each. Furthermore, his preferences for apples (A) and bananas (B) can be represented by U = pAB. a) If A = 5 and B = 80, what will utility be?b) If A = 10, what value of for B will provide the same utility in part a? c) If A = 20, what value of for B will provide the same utility in parts a and b?d) Graph the indi§erence curve implied by parts a through c.e) Give the budget constraint, which of the points identiÖed in parts a through c can be bought by this person?f) show through some examples that every other way of allocating income provides less utility than does the point identiÖed in part b. graph this utility maximizing situation.
- Let MUA = z = 10 − x and MUB = z = 21 − 2y, where z is marginal utility per dollar measured in utils, x is the amount spent on product A, and y is the amount spent on product B. Assume that the consumer has $10 to spend on A and B—that is, x + y = 10. How is the $10 best allocated between A and B? How much utility will the marginal dollar yield?1. Suppose that on the island, the currency is shell beads. The going price for coconuts is 2.4 beads and that for fish is 1 bead. You earn 20 beads per period from your job as a harvester. Given the data in the table, your equilibrium or maximum satisfaction coconut-fish combination will be ____? coconuts and ____? fish. Explain why this will be the chosen combination. 2. Your total utility from the coconut-fish combination is ____?What are four responses to the claim that people should not behave in the way described in this chapter?
- 2.Suppose the firm uses a two-part tariff to implement first-degree price discrimination. Determine the tariff to be applied to each type of consumer.

Now suppose the firm cannot identify each consumer’s utility function. What take-it-or-leave-it offers should the firm propose to ensure incentive compatibility? How much profit does the firm make?ASAP!! ANSWER PLEASE Danish Wali has Rs.70 to spend on apples and bananas and wants to maximize his utility on his purchase. Based on the data in the table: How many apples and bananas should Danish purchase? What is his total utility from the purchase? Does the utility-maximizing rule hold true for his purchase? Explain.

- 33. Suppose MRSx,y = MUx/MUy = 0.1(a) If the consumer substitutes 10 units of X for one unit of Y, then the utility remainsunchanged(b) Regardless of prices, the consumer will only consume Y(c) If the consumer substitutes 1 unit of Y for 0.1 unit of X, then the utility remainsunchanged(d) Regardless of prices, the consumer will only consume Xb) Suppose a household is faced with the choice between consuming gasoline (G) and all other goods (OG). Today the household consumes 800 liter of gasoline a year. Suppose then that a gasoline price increase is perfectly compensated by a wage increase. If the family followed the utility maximization model, how would tis affect their consumption of gasoline? Explain by using a figure.Roxanne is considering chipping in to pay for some tree trimming in her neighborhood. If the trees are trimmed, everyone's view improves by the same amount. Roxanne's utility function is given by u(x,t)=3x+1200t, where x is the amount of money she has to spend and t is a variable that equals 1 if the trees are trimmed and 0 if they are not. 1st attempt See Hint Suppose Roxanne starts with $8000. Her utility of that amount of money without the trees being trimmed is 24000 (that is, u(8000,0)=24000). Calculate her reservation price for contributing to the tree-trimming project. $
