Anna is a Vancouverite who starts off her day drinking either a coffee or a bubble tea. From her part-time job, she has earned P15 that she can spend on either coffee or bubble tea over a month. A coffee costs P1, and a bubble tea costs P1.
Draw her budget line, with bubble tea on the y-axis. If she chooses to drink only coffee or only bubble tea for one month, how many of each can she drink?

David gets $3 per week as an allowance to spend any way he pleases. Since he likes only peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, he spends the entire amount on peanut butter (at $0.05 per ounce) and jelly (at $0.1 per ounce). Bread is provided free of charge by a concerned neighbor. David is a picky eater and makes his sandwiches with exactly 1 ounce of jelly and 2 ounces of peanut butter. He is set in his ways and will never change these proportions. a) How much peanut and jelly will David buy with his $3 allowance per week? b) Suppose the price of jelly increases to $0.15 per ounce.

- 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…arrow_forwardQuestion Ebrima gets $3 per month as an allowance to spend any way he pleases. Because he likes only peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, he spends the entire amount on peanut butter (at $.05 per ounce) and jelly (at $.10 per ounce). Bread is provided free of charge by a concerned neighbor. Ebrima is a picky eater and makes his sandwiches with exactly 1 ounce of jelly and 2 ounces of peanut butter. He is set in his ways and will never change these proportions. How much peanut butter and jelly will Ebrima buy with his $3 allowance in a week? Suppose the price of jelly were to rise to $.15 per ounce. How much of each commodity would be bought? By how much should Ebrima’s allowance be increased to compensate for the rise in the price of jelly in part b? Graph your results of part a through part c. In what sense does this problem involve only a single commodity—peanut butter and jelly sandwiches? Graph the demand curve for this single commodity.

- Suppose that with a budget of $100, Deborah spends $60 on sushi and $40 on bagels when sushi costs $2 per piece and bagels cost $2 per bagel. But then, after the price of bagels falls to $1 per bagel, she spends $50 on sushi and $50 on bagels. How many pieces of sushi and how many bagels did Deborah consume before the price change? At the new prices, how much money would it have cost Deborah to buy those same quantities (the ones that she consumed before the price change)? Given that it used to take Deborah’s entire $100 to buy those quantities, how big is the income effect caused by the reduction in the price of bagels?arrow_forwardA student has a monthly budget of $120 to spend on either burritos, which cost $6 each, orsodas, which cost $4 each.What is the largest number of burritos that the student could afford to purchase in onemonth?What is the largest number of sodas the student could afford to purchase in one month?

Her utility function for pairs of shoes, S, and the number of times she goes dancing per month, T, is U(S,T) = 2ST, so MUs = 2T and MUT = 2S. It costs Linda $50 to buy a new pair of shoes or to spend an evening out dancing. Assume that she has $500 to spend on shoes and dancing. A. What is the equation for her budget line? Draw it (with T on the vertical axis) and label the slope and intercepts. B. What is Linda's marginal rate of substitution? Explain. C. Use math to solve for her optimal bundle.
