Suppose your only source of income is work and that you are paid $20 per hour. This determines a budget constraint. You can buy free time at the expense of your income by working less. Likewise, you can get more income at the expense of your free time by working more. Suppose that you can choose how many hours you work. 5- Which of the two effects is the strongest in this example? How can you tell?

- consider your decision about how many hours to work. draw your budget constraint assuming that you pay no taxes on your income. on the same diagram, draw another budget constraint assuming that you pay 15 percent tax. show how the tax might lead to more hours of work,fewer hours or the same number of hours.explain.John works at Frito-Lay distribution center. He is paid $20 per hour and can choose how many hours he can work a week. However, if he works 30 hours per week he is eligible for health insurance and other benefits worth $100 to him. Which of the graphs below show John’s budget constraint in this scenario?Juan is currently working in a job that pays $25 an hour and he chooses to work 8 hours per day. Assume that Juan can work a maximum of 16 hours a day, and he has complete flexibility in how many hours a day he works. Illustrate Juan’s budget constraint and his optimal choice of consumption and leisure. What is the slope of his budget constraint? What does this slope represent? (As on any graph you draw, make sure that you label the axes, the intercepts and the optimal choice.) Juan begins receiving a government transfer payment of $100 per day. Add his new budget constraint to your graph in (a) and show his new optimal choice. Does he choose more or less consumption? More or less leisure? Explain why for both goods. The government imposes a tax of 25% on Juan’s earnings from work and increases his government transfer to $150 per day (the government transfer payment is not taxed.) Redraw the budget constraint from part (b) (omit the part (a) budget constraint), and add a new budget…
- Why does a change in income cause a parallel shift in the budget constraint?(18 points) Suppose you have $30 and you are going to rent some movies and buy some sodas. Suppose movie rentals are $6.00 each and sodas are $1.00 each. Your original consumption bundle is 3 movies and 12 sodas. Show all calculations. (Hint: put movie rentals on the X axis) (2 points) Draw your budget line showing the different combinations of Movies that you can rent and sodas that you can purchase. (2 points) Suppose that movie rentals turn out to be half off ($3.00). Draw your new budget line on the same graph. (4 points) Draw the income compensated budget line and show the calculation for the income compensated budget line (2 points) Draw an indifference curve tangent to your original budget line at your original purchase point. (2 points) Draw an indifference curve showing where you will purchase at the new prices (6 points) Breakdown the shift from the original point of consumption to the new point of consumption using the income and substitution effects. Please provide a…Assuming the two good case. When a person is attempting to maximize utility and income increases, then: a. The budget constraint expands, shifting the budget line outward indicating more choices are now affordable and a higher utility level is now possible. b. The budget constraint contracts, shifting the budget line outward indicating more choices are now affordable and a higher utility level is now possible. c. The budget constraint expands, shifting the budget line inward indicating more choices are now affordable and a lower utility level is now possible. d. The budget constraint contracts, shifting the budget line outward indicating more choices are now affordable and a lower utility level is now possible.
- Assuming the two good case. When a person is attempting to maximize utility and the price of one of the two goods increases, then: The budget constraint will contract (rotate towards the origin), shifting the budget line inward indicating more choices are now affordable and a lower utility level is now possible. The budget constraint will contract (rotate towards the origin), shifting the budget line outward indicating fewer more are now affordable and a higher utility level is now possible. The budget constraint will contract (rotate towards the origin), shifting the budget line inward indicating fewer choices are now affordable and a lower utility level is now possible.Anne has a job that requires her to travel three out of every four weeks. She has an annual travel budget and can travel either by train or by plane. The airline on which she typically flies das a frequent-travel program that reduces the cose of her tickets according to the number of miles she has flown in a given year. When she reaches 25,000 miles, the airline will reduce the price of her tickects by 25 percent for the remainder of the year. when she reaches 50,000 miles, the airline will reduce the price by 50 percent for the remainder of ther year. Graph Anne's budget line with train miles on the vertical axis and plan miles on the horizontal axis Note:- Do not provide handwritten solution. Maintain accuracy and quality in your answer. Take care of plagiarism. Answer completely. You will get up vote for sure.Suppose you have a monthly income of $1000, $850 in monthly expenses, and you can put money in a savings account that yields a monthly interest rate of 4%. Create a budget constraint showing the trade-off between present consumption (horizontal axis) and future consumption (vertical axis). How much will you have in the future if you choose to consume $850 now? Show this point on your budget constraint.
- 6. MRS and utility maximization Suppose your classmate Bob loves to eat dessert—so much so that he allocates his entire weekly budget to apple crisp and pie. The price of one bowl of apple crisp is $1.25, and the price of a piece of blueberry pie is $3.75. At his current level of consumption, Bob's marginal rate of substitution (MRS) of apple crisp for pie is 2. In other words, Bob is willing to sacrifice two bowls of apple crisp for one piece of pie per week. Does Bob's current consumption bundle maximize his utility? That is, does it make him as well off as possible? If not, how should he change it to maximize his utility? Bob could increase his utility by buying more apple crisp and less pie per week. Bob could increase his utility by buying less apple crisp and more pie per week. Bob's current bundle maximizes his utility, and he should keep it unchanged.Explain why the lifetime budget constraint must be satisfied as a strict equalitySuppose you have $30 and you are going to rent some movies and buy some sodas.
