Two friends are discussing their plans for the month.One works at a movie theater and gets 10 free movietickets; the other works at a concert venue and gets10 free concert tickets. What can we predict about thefirst person’s marginal rate of substitution betweenmovies and concerts? What can we predict aboutthe second person’s marginal rate of substitutionbetween the two? How does this relate to the slopeof each of their indifference curves?
