- Suppose a consumer can afford to buy 6 units of good 1 and 8 units of good 2 if she spends her entire income. The prices of the two goods are Rs 6 and Rs 8 respectively. How much is the consumer’s income?Anthony spends all his income on two goods, X and Y and his tastes don't change between 2008 and 2009. The prices he paid and the quantities he consumed in 2008 are as follows: PX = 15, X = 20, PY = 25 and Y = 30. Suppose the prices in 2009 are PX = 6 and PY = 30, and his income in 2009 is €1,020, Anthony is as well off in 2009 as he is in 2008 Anthony is better off in 2009 than in 2008 Anthony is better off in 2008 than in 2009 There is not enough information to answer this questionE1 Suppose the Federal Government issues $100 worth of food stamps to everyone in your city. These stamps are coupons that can be exchanged for $100 worth of food at the grocery store and they can be used only by the person to whom they are issued. Draw your budgetline between “food’ and “all other goods” both before and after the food stamps are issued. Assume the price of food = price of “all other goods” = $1.00 and the individual’s initial income is $200.
- Q43 Laurie spends all of her money buying bread and cheese. The marginal utility she receives from the last loaf of bread is 60 and from the last block of cheese is 30.

Should buy more bread and more cheese in order to maximise her utility. c. Spends too much money on bread and cheese. d. Should buy more bread and less cheese in order to maximise her utility. e. Is buying currently the utility-maximising amount of bread and cheese.Assume a household can choose to consume units of food and units of housing. Say that the price of housing rises and that both food and housing are normal goods. What would happen to housing consumption and food consumption? Increase/Decrease/Uncertain? Explain.The reason the substitution effect works to encourage a consumer to buy less of a product when its price increases is: a. the product is now relatively more expensive than it was before. b. other products are now relatively more expensive than they were before. c. the real income of the consumer has been increased. d. the real income of the consumer has been decreased
- Q19 Suppose a consumer can purchase only two goods: pasta and rice. Let the quantity of pasta be measured on the vertical axis and the quantity of rice be measured on the horizontal axis. If the price of pasta falls, with no change in the price of rice or in the consumer's money income, then the budget line for the consumer will rotate... a. Outward parallel to the existing budget line. b. Toward the origin and become flatter. c. Away from the origin and become steeper. d. Away from the origin and become flatter. e. Toward the origin and become steeper.It is given that the price of goods X and Y are both Rs.10 each, a consumer consumes 10 units of X and 10 units of Y at equilibrium.a. Draw the budget line and indifference curve and show the point of consumer equilibrium. b. If the price of X falls to Rs.5, PY and money income remaining the same, what is the real income increase?c. At the new equilibrium caused by a fall in price of X, the consumer has a combination of 16 units of X and 12 units of Y. Show the price effect of a change in price of X using the PCC.d. Why are more units of Y consumed even though its price has not fallen?Steve's utility for socks (q1) and other goods (q2) is given by U(q1,q2) = 10q10.1 0.1q² 0.9 The price of the composite good is p2=1 and the price of a pair of socks is p1=2. Steve's income is Y=100. Every year, Steve's mom buys him 20 pairs of socks. How many dollars is the equivalent variation of the $40 that his mom spends on socks every year?
- A consumer has utility u(x,y) = x^4 y^2 where x is this year’s consumption, and y is next year’s consumption. She makes 600 dollars income this year and 720 dollars income the next year. There is also a bank where she can borrow money at the interest rate r=%50 and lend money (to the bank) at the interest rate r=%20 (of course, she will decide to borrow or lend this year and pay off her debt or receive her savings the next year). a. Should she borrow money from or lend to the bank this year? How much b. If her utility were u(x,y) = xy2 instead, re-solving (a), would she borrow money or lend? How much? c. If her utility were u(x,y) = x^c y^2, what should “c” be so that she ends up neither borrowing nor lending?A basket of goods for a given consumer includes two goods, X and Z. Consumer income is equal to $1,500 and the prices of these two goods are as follows: Px = $25 Pz = $25 This consumer is consuming10 units of good X. Suppose that over the course of a year, the price of good X changes by 10% and the price of good Z changes by −10%. How much income would be required for the consumer to afford the same quantity of goods X and Z with the new prices? $______Consumer demand for Caramel Iced Mochas (a kind of drink) at a coffee shop is given by p=7−.25x dollars per drink, where x items are drinks are sold every day.
