what is satiation point? And how it is helpful in deriving indifference curve?
Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- Elaborate difference varieties/types of indifference curve?If an indifference curve is a vertical line, does theamount of the good on the y -axis influence theconsumer’s utility?We claimed in the text that if preferences were monotonic, then a diagonal line through the origin would intersect each indifference curve exactlyonce. Can you prove this rigorously? (Hint: what would happen if itintersected some indifference curve twice?)
- As per indifference curve analysis, producer always try to reach higher indifference curve t or fExplain the consumer equilibrium point by using Indifference Curve Approach andthe Budget Line. What is the necessary condition for the consumer equilibrium? Explain whyconsumer is not in equilibrium if this condition does not fulfilEconomists use "indifference curves" to indicate individuals' preferences. These curves are parallel to each other and do not intersect. Which of the following statements is true? A) The further away an indifference curve is from the origin at (0,0), the lower is the individual's happiness. B) On a downward-sloping indifference curve, the points lower down (towards the right-hand-side) on the curve are preferred by the individual. C) The closer an indifference curve is to the origin at (0,0), the higher is the individual's happiness. D) The further away an indifference curve is from the origin at (0,0), the higher is the individual's happiness.
