2 COLD BREW VS. ICED COFFEE Lauren's preferences over cold brew, C, and iced coffee, I, are given by the following utility function: U(C, I)=C+I a. Plot indifference curves associated with U = 5, U = 10, and U = 15. b. Calculate Lauren's marginal rate of substitution (MRS) at the bundles (C=3,1=1) and (C=1,I=3). What does this imply about Lauren's preferences in words? c. Suppose Lauren's brother Christopher has preferences over cold brew and iced coffee that is given by the following utility function: U(C, I)=√C+I Redo parts (a) and (b) using Christopher's utility function. What changes, if anything? Ex- plain.

In recent years fresh bagel sales have been growing at about 30% per year. Once considered an ethnic food to be eaten only by some consumers, bagels now “have become the new doughnut to bring to the office.” But one problem with bagels is that they get stale fast. In the words of Ray Lahvic, editor emeritus of Bakery Production and Marketing, “The worst thing in the world is a day-old bagel.” If a market researcher asserts that the slope of the typical consumer’s indifference curve between fresh bagels and day-old bagels is -1, would you agree with Mr. Lahvic’s statement about fresh and day-old bagels given above? Please explain. Note: Slope of the indifference curve is the marginal rate of substitution (MRS) and the MRS is defined as “How much of good A will a consumer give up to get one more unit of good B such that the total utility before and after the change in consumption of A and B is the same.”

Her profit, in dollars, is represented by the function P(x) = x - 22x2 - 240x, where x is the number of computers sold. Part A: Diane hopes to make a profit of at least $10,000 by the time she sells 36 computers. Explain whether or not Diane will meet her goal. Justify your reasoning. Part B: Diane states that there are three possible values of x for which she will have a profit of$0. Find the values of x that produce a zero profit to show whether Diane is correct or not. Justify your reasoning.

If Soltani factory produces 1000 pieces of products, its total cost is equal to 50,000 monetary units, and if it produces 2,000 pieces of the same product, its total cost is equal to 80,000 monetary units. If each product is sold at a price of 40 monetary units, it is desirable: a. By drawing a diagram, specify the breaking point for it. B. If we want to make a profit equal to 20,000 units by selling 2500 pieces of product, what should be the variable cost? Use equations below: F Profit(P) = pQ - (F + vQ) TR=pQ TC=F+vQ Q=F/(p-v)
