Explain how a consumer budget and product price changes impact the budget line by drawing hypothetical example budget lines.
Course: MicroeconomicsConsider a consumer who has income equal to 100 and who faces prices Px = 2 and Py = 1, of 2 goods, X and Y. Consumer is in equilibrium consuming basket (X*, Y*) = (20, 60). If price of Y increases and becomes Py = 2, and income increases and becomes equal to 160, which consumption basket will consumer choose in new situation? Explain and graph
Scruffie the cat has $15 to spend each month on cat toys, which cost $3 each, and cat treats, which cost $1.50 each. Draw a budget line to show the combinations of each good that Scruffie can afford if she spends her entire budget. Now suppose that cat treats go on sale for $1 each. How does this change in price affect the budget line (describe and show on a graph)?
A consumer’s budget set for two goods (X and Y) is 500 ≥ 4X + 5Y.a. The budget set is illustrated below. What are the values of A and B? The horizontal axis is labeled Good X. The vertical axis is labeled Good Y. A line begins at a point on the vertical axis goes down to the right and ends at a point on the horizontal axis. A = B = b. Does the budget set change if the prices of both goods double and the consumer’s income also doubles? multiple choice Yes, it rotates clockwise Yes, it shifts out from the origin Yes, it shifts in toward the origin No, it does not change c. Given the equation for the budget set, what are the prices of the two goods?Good X: $ Good Y: $ What is the consumer’s income? $
12) Leyla consumes goods X and Y. The price of good X is Px and the price of good Y isPy, Leyla’s income is I. If both prices and Leyla’s income increases by 50%, then theA) budget constraint will be unchanged.B) slope of the budget constraint will increase.C) slope of the budget constraint will decrease.D) budget constraint will shift outward in a parallel fashion.E) None of the above .
K A budget line is a line that describes limits to consumption possibilities and that depends on a consumer's OA. demand; prices B. demand; supply C. budget; costs D. budget; prices and of goods and services.
E2 Draw a budget line for 2 goods with prices of $1 and $2 for the first and second good, respectively, and income of $8. a. Find some prices and income that will lead to a new budget line that intersects the old budget line ONLY at the midpoint of the old budget line. b. Can the old and new budget line have the same slope? c. Can the old and new budget line have the same prices? d. Can the old and new budget line have the same income and only one different price?
A consumer has initial income of $100 and face prices Px=$1 and Py=$5. Graph the budget line, and show how it changes when the price of good X increases to Px’=$5. what happens when income increases from 100 to 200$
Ryan has $30 per week to spend on snacks. She is a bit health conscious so she prefers to buy either alkaline water which is $5 per liter or protein bars which cost $3 per bar A. Use the graph to plot her budget line given the info above B. The price of protein bars increases to $4. Draw her new budget line(assume she can purchase fractions of water bottles or protein bars. C. Ryan’s weekly budget decreases to $24 while the price of protein bars stays at $4 and the price of water bottles stays at $5. Draw her new budget line (assume she can purchase fractions of water bottles or protein bars)
urgent part 1 2 3 David’s utility function for good X and Y is given by U (x, y) = x2 y3 . Where Px, Py and I are the price of good X, price of good Y and consumer income respectively. i. Write the budget equation of the consumer and draw the line of this equation. ii. Using the budget line drawn in (i) show the effect of a 100 percent increase in the price of good X hold the price of good Y and income constant. iii. Using the budget line drawn in (i) show the effect of a 100 percent increase in his income holding the price of both goods constant. iv. What combination of X and Y maximizes the consumer’s utility at I=100, Px = 4 and Py = 5. v. Calculate the marginal rate of substitution between X and Y at equilibrium and interpret your results vi. Suppose all prices double and income is held constant, what is the effect of this on the optimal combination of X and Y? vii. What happens to the optimal combination of X and Y if price of good X decreases to 2 whiles the price of good Y and…
What happens to the original budget line if the price of good ? falls to 4$? (i.e., Will there be a change in the slope and/or intercepts of the original budget line? If yes, what are those changes?). Interpret economically how the change in the price of good ? affects the consumption decision of the consumer.
1. A person has $ 100 to spend on two goods X and Y whose respective prices are $3 and $5. a. Draw the budget line. b. What happens to the original budget line if the budget falls by 25%? c. What happens to the original budget line if the price of X doubles? d. What happens to the original budget line if the price of Y falls to $4?
