Which consumption theory best explain the consumption behaviour of consumers in our economy
Consider an overtime rule that requires that workers get paid double for any weekly hours over 40. Draw a picture that shows how a worker decides how much to work. Label everything in your picture and explain what is happening. Consider an investment that costs $100 and pays back $10 each year as long as the person making the investment is alive. Construct an equation for the net present value of the investment. An individual has a utility function, U = AX1 X2 where X1 and X2 are consumption of goods 1 and 2. The individual also faces a budget constraint. Show mathematically how an increase in Aa§ects the individualís decisions about consumption of each good.
Suppose the utility function for goods x and y is given Utility = U(x,y) = xy +y Suppose price of both x and y is $1. You have total $10 to spend. Suppose price of x changed to $0.5. Price of y and your disposable income remain the same: a. calculates the change in the amount of good x, that is caused by the substitution effect (the effect on consumption due to a change in price holding real income or utility constant). b. calculate the change in the amount of good x, that is caused by the income effect (the effect on consumption due to a change in real income caused by a change in price).
Which of the following is true regarding income along a price-consumption curve? A. Income is increasing. B. Income is decreasing. C. Income is constant. D. The level of income depends on the level of utility.
A consumer spends all her income on the two goods A and B. The quantity of good A bought is determined by the demand function QA = f(PA, PB,M) where PA and PB are the prices of the two goods and M is real income. A change in the price of A will also affect real income M via the function M = g(PA, PB, £M) where £M is money income. Derive an expression for the total effect of a change in PA on QA.
If preferences for pizza increase and the price of labor to produce pizza decreases, the equilibrium quantity of pizza will ____ and the equilibrium price of pizza will _____ . increase, increase decrease, be indeerminate increase, be indeterminate increase, decrease Assume an intertemporal budget constraint that shows how consumption can be traded off between two periods, t and t+1. Assume the consumer can save and borrow at the same interest rate of 10%. Assume the consumer collects income of $100 in each period. To gain an extra $10 dollars in period t+1, what must the consumer give up in period t? $11 $9.10 $1 $10 A convex indifference curve implies what type of behavior? diminishing marginal utility complementary goods perfect substitutes inferior goods
For each of the following events, consider how you might react. What things might you consume more or less of? Would you work more or less? Would you increase or decrease your saving? Are your responses consistent with the discussion of household behavior in this chapter? a. You have a very close friend who lives in another city, a 3-hour bus ride away. The price of a round-trip ticket rises from $20 to $45. b. Tuition at your college is cut 25 percent. c. You receive an award that pays you $300 per month for the next 5 years. d. Interest rates rise dramatically, and savings accounts are now paying 10% interest annually. e. The price of food doubles. (If you are on a meal plan, assume that your board charges double.) f. A new business opens up nearby offering part-time jobs at $20 per hour.
Is optimal consumption basket the same as associated level of utility?
