- Eren’s two main hobbies are taking vacations overseas (V) and eating expensive meals (M). His utility function is given as: U(V,M) = V^2MLast year, the average price of taking a vacation overseas was US$200 and the average price of an expensive meal is $50. However, due to supply problems in Onions, the average price of an expensive meal rose to $75. The average price of a vacation did not change. His income, which is $1500, did not change. Suppose that the Department of Welfare wants to know how much should be given to Eren to offset his change un utility due to the price increase of an expensive meal. Calculate the compensative variation (CV).i will 10 upvotes urgent Say Anna's utility function is given by UA = MAMM, where MA is Anna's wealth and MM is Marie's wealth. Initially, Anna has 160 units of wealth and Marie has 40. When Anna maximizes her utility, her utility level is equal to: Multiple Choice 10,000. 5,000. 100. 200.Pls help with below homework. Describe the model of optimal distribution of Paul and peter with an appropriate graph.
- Because Income depends on work effort and work effort depends on nutrition, suppose the relationship between income (Y) and total food availability (F) in a poor household is given by: Y = 10F + 20F2 – 0.6F3 a) If food availability in a two-person household is 20, would it be “rational” to share the food? Explain. b) If food availability in a two-person household is 30, would it be “rational” to share the food? Explain.Suppose there are two goods, co ee (C) and tea (T). The consump-tion set is R2+, so both goods can be consumed in arbitrary non-negativequantities.Abdul owns 2000 grams of co ee but does not own any tea. He hasno other wealth. The price of co ee is pC = 2 (in Dhs per gram) andthe price of tea is pT > 0 (in Dhs per gram). Abdul can sell co ee toearn income, which he can then use to buy tea or co ee. He can alsothrow co ee away (at no cost).Abdul's preferences can be represented by the utility functionu(c; t) = -(800 - c)2 - (800 - t)2;where c is the quantity of co ee (in grams) and t is the quantity of tea(in grams).(a) In separate diagrams, illustrate (i) the map of Abdul's indi erencecurves, (ii) Abdul's constraint set.(b) How much co ee and tea does Abdul decide to consume when (i)pT = 2, (ii) pT = 3, and (iii) pT = 4?(c) Illustrate Abdul's demand for co ee as a function of the price of tea (pT > 0) in an appropriate diagram.Now,suppose N=3 with a market clearing interest rate. The first two agents are the same as earlier. The third agent has an endowment of 20 in the first period and consumes 15 in the second period. If the first two agents each consumed 21 units in the first period, how much did the third agent consume in the first period? Plz do fast
- On a given evening, J. P. enjoys the consumption of cigars (c) and brandy (b) according tothe functionU(c, b) = 20c− c²+ 18b − 3b²a. How many cigars and glasses of brandy does he consume during an evening? (Cost isno object to J. P.)b. Lately, however, J. P. has been advised by his doctors that he should limit the sum ofglasses of brandy and cigars consumed to 5. How many glasses of brandy and cigarswill he consume under these circumstances?Budget Constraints: Sam has an income of $1000 a week from a rental property he owns. Sam also has a job as a legal assistant where he gets paid $50 an hour for the first 50 hours he works. However, he can’t work for more than 50 hours, so for every hour, he works more than 50 he can work as a cashier making 20 an hour. John’s time endowment is 100 hours. a) Draw and label Sam's budget constraint b) What is John’s maximum potential income? c) What is the price/hour of leisure when Sam works fewer than 50 hours, and more than 50 hours/week?

- 4. Show how to construct the reference dependent utility function for two friends Kate and Mary whose gains and losses are listed as follows : Kate's net worth is $ 4.5 million ( decreased from $ 5.5 to $ 4.5 million ) Mary's net worth $ 3.2 million ( increased from $ 3 to $ 3.2 million ) ( First determine the reference point ( use a parameter ) and then derive reference utility function for each ) .Eren’s two main hobbies are taking vacations overseas (V) and eating expensivemeals (M). His utility function is given as: U(V,M) = V2MLast year, the average price of taking a vacation overseas was US$200 and the averageprice of an expensive meal is $50. However, due to supply problems in Onions, theaverage price of an expensive meal rose to $75. The average price of a vacation did notchange. His income, which is $1500, did not change. Suppose that the Department of Welfare wants to know how much should begiven to Eren to offset his change un utility due to the price increase of an expensivemeal. Calculate the compensative variation (CV).Individuals may not act in the rational, calculating way described by the economic model of decision making, measuring utility and costs at the margin, but can you make a case that they behave approximately that way?
