If Py = $800, Pz= $200, and M = $5,000,what is the inverse demand function for good X?2). Consider a market characterized by the following demand and supply functions: Px = 10-2Qxand Px2+2Qx.(a). Compute the equilibrium price and quantity in this market and show in graph.(b). What will be the impact on market when an $8 per unit floor price is imposed? How many unitswill be exchanged in this market? Show in the same graph.3). If the price of ground beef falls from $7 to $4, and this leads to an increase in demand for beansfrom 80 to 120 cans, what is the cross-price elasticity of beans and ground beef at a ground beefprice of $4?

1. The utility function for an individual is given by the equation: U = X1 0.25X2 0.75 and their budget constraint is P1x1 + P2X2 = M (1) Using the Lagrange, and showing all work, Derive the demand functions for good X1 and good X2 (ii) Given that the price for good 1, p1= k2.5 and the price for good 2, p2=k5, and the consumer's income is k100. Calculate and graphically present the optimal choice for good 1 and good 2
The demand for Good A is Qd = 1000 - 0.5P + 0.011. If, on average, an income increase of 3% increases quantity demanded by 1%, all else constant. Using Qd = 500, how do you write the demand equation?
Floyd's utility function is given by U(X,Y)=2XY. MUx=2Y and MUy-2X. The price of good X is Px=2, while the price of good Y is Py = 1. Floyd's income is 1,000. Which of the following is true given that the price of good X falls to 1? The substitution effect for good X results in an increase of X consumption by about 1,043 units and a decrease in Y consumption by about 14 units. The substitution effect for good X results in X consumption of about 250 units. The substitution effect for good X results in X consumption of about 500 units. The substitution effect for good X results in an increase of X consumption by about 250 units and no change in Y consumption.
Xander has a utility function u(x,y) = xy and an income of M. Assume that the price of x is $4 and the price y is $2. If Xander's income rises from M = 104 to M = 152, what the resulting increase in demand for good x? increases by 6 units increases by 9 units increases by 11 units increases by 14.5 units
Jack sells 40 widgets when it charges a price of $40 per widget, and 10 widgets when it charges a price of $100 per widget. Assume the demand for widgets is linear. Write down the inverse demand function of Jack's customers.
True/False? Briefly explain. Assume good x is a normal good. In terms of consumer behavior, a cash grant and a small (relative to the initial consumption of x) limited non-matching grant on good x (with the limit that is equal to the cash grant) are essentially equivalent.
Suppose i's preferences are represented by the following utility function: u= x-y. Which of the following statements is true? O i's Marshallian demand for good x is x = - Px i will consume more good y than good x i will consume the same amounts of good x and good y i's Marshallian demand for good y is y=- Ру
Bob has utility function U(x,y)=x2+y over goods x and y a) Do we have a name for this type of utility function? Are Bob's preferences well-behaved? b) Let Bob have budget I=$60, and let prices be Px=$30, Py=$10. Find Bob's optimal basket of goods x and y. Is this an interior or corner solution? c) What will happen if the price of good y doubles? [Think about: can we use this utility function to describe preferences over pet snakes and pet mice?]
Suppose that the price of good A increases, the demand for good B increases. This shows that good A and good B are substitute goods complement goods not related
Elsie sells homemade lemonade. If she prices a glass of lemonade at $3, she sells 12 glasses a day. If she gives a $0.50 discount (per glass), she can sell 3 more glasses per day. Write a linear demand equation q = mp + b, where p is the price per glass, and q is the number of glasses she can sell per day. Suppose that it costs her 20 cents a glass to make lemonade. There is no fixed cost. Write down the revenue function, cost function, and profit function as functions of p. How much should she charge per glass to maximize her profit? What is the maximum profit?
