A consumer’s budget set for two goods (X and Y) is 500 ≥ 4X + 5Y.a. The budget set is illustrated below. What are the values of A and B?
The horizontal axis is labeled Good X. The vertical axis is labeled Good Y. A line begins at a point on the vertical axis goes down to the right and ends at a point on the horizontal axis.
A =
B =
b. Does the budget set change if the prices of both goods double and the consumer’s income also doubles?
multiple choice
Yes, it rotates clockwise
Yes, it shifts out from the origin
Yes, it shifts in toward the origin
No, it does not change
c. Given the equation for the budget set, what are the prices of the two goods?Good X: $ Good Y: $
What is the consumer’s income?
$
What happens to the original budget line if the price of good ? doubled? (i.e., Will there be a change in the slope and/or intercepts of the original budget line? If yes, what are those changes?). Interpret economically how the change in the price of good ? affects the consumption decision of the consumer
Explain in detail what are indifference curve and what do they measure. What are the three characteristics of indifference curves, MRS, slope of IC curve and the budget line? What is budget line and what does it represent. Explain with formula and graph what is the point of consumer’s equilibrium, conditions of the equilibrium, and how does this equilibrium shift in (a) Income effect; (b) Price effect and (c) substitution effect and explain the pivot under price effect and under substitution effect. What is PCC?
