Please solve the only part f and part e. The answers should be very detailed and clear, THANK YOU!!! Mahmut Tuncer derives utility from Halay course (a Turkish traditional dance) (H) and çiğ köfte (a Turkishtraditional food) (C) as given by the following utility function:U (H, C) = VHCThe average price for the halay course is 20 TLs and for çiğ köfte 16 TLs. Moreover, Mahmut Tuncer has a budgetof 80 TLs.a) Use Lagrange optimization method to find Mahmut Tuncer's utility maximization choice of consumptionbundle. Find also his utility level from consuming that bundle.b) Assume that price of çiğ köfte increases to 25TLS. Suppose Mahmut Tuncer also changed his budget forconsumption and we do not know it. Denote Mahmut Tuncer's budget by a and find his demand for H and Cunder the new conditions as a function of a.c) Find the income level which is necessary to make Mahmut Tuncer reach the same utility level as before theprice change.d) Compute the quantities demanded with the new prices and the income you found in section c.e) Compute the quantities demanded with the new prices and the original budget of 800TL.f) Using the results you get above, calculate the total change in quantity of çiğ köfte due to the price increase?What part of that change is due to income or substitution effects? Also describe what income and substitutioneffects mean.g) Draw a graph showing the income and substitution effects that you have calculated in part f).

The motive of a rational consumer is to allocate his/her/their income among different goods and/or…

Marina decides to purchase a ring made from an alloy composed exclusively of gold (G) and titanium (T). The price of gold is $60 per gram, and the price of titanium is $30 per gram. Her total budget for the ring is $600. Her utility function is given by U(G,T) =GT. Suppose the price of titanium falls to $20 per gram. At the final basket, the optimal amount of titanium is（）grams.
Two students go out to lunch and decide to split the bill evenly between them. Each student has a quasi-linear utility function given by ui(fi , xi) = φi(fi) + xi , where φi(·) is strictly concave, fi is the amount of food consumed by student i, and xi is a composite numeraire good. Each student has a fixed budget of mi . EVALUATE THIS CLAIM: Both students eat too much!

Explain the technique of constrained optimization in relation to utility functions and how it relates to consumer equilibrium.
Jane receives utility from days spent traveling on vacation domestically (D) and days spent traveling on vacation in a foreign country (F), as given by the utility function U(D,F) = 10DF. In addition, the price of a day spent traveling domestically is $100, the price of a day spent traveling in a foreign country is $400, and Jane’s annual travel budget is $4000. Suppose F is on the horizontal axis and D is on the vertical axis. Jane's marginal rate of substitution between F and D is equal to 10 1 F/D D/F
You have £20 per week to spend, and two possible uses for this money: telephoning friends back home, and drinking coffee. Each hour of phoning costs £2, and each cup of coffee costs £1. Your utility function is U(X,Y) = XY, where X is the hours of phoning you do, and Y the number of cups of coffee you drink. What are your optimal choices? What is the resulting utility level? You can use the standard result on the constrained maximization of such a function, but must state it clearly. Now suppose the price of telephone calls drops to £1 per hour. What are your optimal choices? What is the resulting utility level? How much income per week will enable you to achieve the same quantities at the new prices as the ones you chose before? What income will enable you to attain the same utility as you did before? Comment on your answer in the context of equivalent variation and compensating variation.
