- Suppose Jenny has 16 hours per day to allocate between work and leisure and she earns a wage rate of $25 per hour. If at the utility-maximizing level of employment (i.e., MRSy; = w), Jenny's MUy is 20 utils, what is her MUl? O A. 1.25 utils O B. 0.8 utils O C. 500 utils O D. Cannot be determined with the information provided.(i) Keith’s marginal utility of leisure is C – 20 and his marginal utility of consumption is L – 50. There are 110 hours in the week available to split between work and leisure. Keith receives £250 of welfare payments each week regardless of how much he works (assume he spends all of his welfare payments on consumption). What is Keith’s reservation wage? (ii) Suppose Danny receives the same welfare payments each week as Keith and has the same number of available hours (110). However, Danny’s indifference curve is flatter than Keith’s. How would his reservation wage compare to Keith’s? Why?Consider worker 1 with non-labour income Y facing a wage offer w and a utility function defined over consumption and leisure. U(c,l) = lnC + 4lnl a.Provide the functional form of the income effect from a marginal decrease in income and provide the functional form of the substitution and total income effects of a marginal increase in wage.
- Consider a consumer who could earn $400 per week and has 50 weeks available each year to allocate between work (H) and nonmarket time (L). They have no non-labour income. Their utility function is U = C2L , where C is the value of consumption goods. What is their optimal choice for the number of weeks in nonmarket time and consumption? Show this in a diagram. Suppose the government introduces a policy that (i) offers no benefits to people who do not work, (ii) offers a wage subsidy on earnings at a rate of 25%, with a maximum benefit of $5000, and (iii) the benefit is subject to reduction at a rate of 25% for every dollar earned above $20,000 in the year. Show the person’s new budget constraint in a new diagram, and discuss how the person’s optimal choice might change (you do not have to calculate this, but point to where it is likely on the new budget constraint). Discuss how income and substitution effects play a role.Consider worker 1 with non-labour income Y facing a wage offer w and a utility function defined over consumption and leisure. U(c,l) = lnC + 4lnl a) Derive worker’s income elasticity. Is leisure a normal or inferior good for this worker? b) Provide the functional form of the income effect from a marginal decrease in income. c) Provide the functional form of the substitution and total income effects of a marginal increase in wage.4. Akua gains utility from consumption C and leisure L. The most leisure she can consume in any given week is 110 hours. Her utility function is U (C, L) = C × L. Akua receives 660 GHS each week from her great-grandmother—regardless of how much she works. a. What will be Akua’s marginal rate of substitution. b. What will be Akua’s reservation wage? (Explain in detail)

U(C,L) = C^2/3L^1/3 C = wN + π – T H= N+ L Where C: consumptionL: leisureN: hours workedH = 50 : total hoursw = 4 : hourly wageπ = 20 : non-labor income T = 10 : lump-sum tax Suppose the hourly wage changes to w = 5. Perform a decomposition and fill in the table C L N Substitution Effect Income Effect Total EffectConsider worker 1 with non-labour income Y facing a wage offer w and a utility function defined over consumption and leisure U(c,l) = lnC + 4lnl 1) Provide the functional form of the income effect from a marginal decrease in income. 2) Provide the functional form of the substitution and total income effects of a marginal increase in wage. 3) Show that the Slutsky equation holds for this worker.True or False. Explain why. Deniz’s preferences for consumption and leisure is as follows:U(C,L)=C2LDeniz has 100 hours in the week available to split between work and leisure. She earns $10 per hour after taxes. She also receives $260 worth of welfare benefits each week. Deniz’s optimal amount of leisure time will be 45 whereas labour supply will be 55.
- James has a wage income of $50.000 in the present and $200.000 in the future. His utility is given as U = min (2Cp, Cr) - that is, his utility is the lesser of twice the dollars spent on present consumption or the dollars spent on future consumption. The interest rate is 30%. (A) What is the minimum amount of money James would be willing to accept today to have the interest rate at 40% rather than 30%? Explain and show work (B) What is the maximum amount of money James would pay today to have the interest rate at 30% rather than 40%? Explain and show workConsider worker 1 with non-labour income Y facing a wage offer w and a utility function defined over consumption and leisure. U(c,l) = lnC + 4lnl Derive worker’s income elasticity. Is leisure a normal or inferior good for this worker?Suppose that the owner of Boyer Construction is feeling the pinch of increased premiums associated with worker’s compensation and has decided to cut the wages of its two employees (Albert and Sid) from $25 per hour to $22 per hour. Assume that Albert and Sid view income and leisure as “goods,” that both experience a diminishing rate of marginal substitution between income and leisure, and that the workers have the same before- and after-tax budget constraints at each wage. Draw each worker’s opportunity set for each hourly wage. At the wage of $25 per hour, both Albert and Sid are observed to consume 12 hours of leisure (and, equivalently, supply 12 hours of labor). After wages were cut to $22, Albert consumes 10 hours of leisure and Sid consumes 14 hours of leisure. Determine the number of hours of labor each worker supplies at a wage of $22 per hour. How can you explain the seemingly contradictory result that the workers supply a different number of labor hours? (LO2, LO3, LO7)
