He has a utility function for cigarettes smoked indoors (q1) and a composite good (q2) given by U(q1,q2) = 10q10.5 + q2. Joe's income is $1,000 and faces prices p1 = 4 and p2 = 1. Compute the compensating variatioA young connoisseur has $600 to spend to build a small wine cellar. She enjoys two vintages in particular: a 2001 French Bordeaux (xf) at $40 per bottle and a less expensive 2005 California varietal wine (xc) priced at $8. If her utility is U(xf, xc) = xf2/3xc1/3, then how much of each wine should she purchase?
- Suppose Hannah spends $3 to buy five biscuits. The marginal utility of the fifth biscuit is valued at $0.60. The total utility derived from five biscuits is valued at $4.20. Hannah’s consumer surplus is valued at _____ Group of answer choices $5.00. $1.20. $2.40. $20.00. $15.00.6 If someone has an income of 20 and he wants to buy Pepsi and hamburgers. Hamburgers are sold in an unusual way. There is only one supplier and the more hamburgers he buys, the higher the price per unit. So, hamburgers cost is a total of 2h^2 (squared) for hamburgers. Pepsi is sold at a price of $2. 1. In this case, write out the budget constraint of hamburgers and Pepsi. 2. His utility function is u(h,p) = 12h + 4p. Draw his 1) budget line and 2) a few indifference curves on a graph. 3. What is the optimal bundle for him?Can you assist me with this? Troy has preferences for laptops (L), and drones (D). Laptops costs $750 a unit and drones costs $2000 a unit. Troy has $15000 to spend on both goods. Troy is a utility maximizer. Describe the utility maximization condition. Using the available information at what value is utility expected to be maximized
- The graph below shows the utility function of Mr. Ahmer for herbal tea. Given the information below find the level of marginal utility he attained from the third cup of tea. a. 10 b. 50 c. Given information is insufficient to find the answer d. 0For Unit 4 Learning Journal, you will use the marginal utility formula to choose between two products. Catherine is having dinner at the Yellow Restaurant. She wants desert after eating her entree. She is trying to decide between a cookie or a slice of pie. The cost of a cookie is $5 and the cost of a slice of pie is $8. Refer to the Unit 4 Learning Journal Marginal Utility spreadsheet Compute the marginal utility for cookie and slice of pie Compute the marginal utility per dollar What is the utility maximizing choice for a cookie and slice of pie? Explain what the utility maximizing choice means. Discuss how you could use marginal utility to make consumer choicesIf Utility =.5lnX+3Z+10+4√W then Marginal utility from X is....;. and the Mu of Z is ..
- True/False/Uncertain: 1. In taking an exam, Atack, a rational student, allocates his time to the various questions so as to equalize hismarginal point utility per minute on all questions. 2. The marginal utility of food to Zecher depends only on the amount of food (and not on the amount ofhousing) and the marginal utility declines as more food is consumed; likewise for housing. Therefore,both food and housing are normal goods. (Hint: Express the optimality condition for Zecher’s [UMP], MUF/MUH = PF/PH. Notice that PF/PH is fixed. If all of an increase in income is spent on F, can the equality be maintained?)Suppose some friends of Ali call to say they are having a party tonight. Ali calculates that the party is now his best alternative to study, and he increases his estimate of the cost of each hour of study. One hour of study now costs 70; two hours cost 140; three hours 210, four hours 280; five hours 350; and six hours 470. a) Draw the Total and marginal Utility curves for Ali’s study hours. b) Based on the marginal decision rule, identify the solution that maximizes the net benefit of study time.abby is a single mom with a weekly budget of $100. She can spend her weeklyincome on food and diapers for her son. Price of food is $1 and price of a diaperis 50 cents. Her son needs at least 5 diapers a day, therefore she must purchaseat least 35 diapers weekly. Jennifer’s utility function is U (f, d) = f 0.9d0.1,where f and d represent quantity of food and diapers, respectively.Question 1 Part aFind abbys optimal consumption bundle. Make sure to draw her budgetconstraint and indifference curves and clearly demonstrate your solution.
