Vacation spending for 2020 will be: A. $ 50,000 b. $ 25,000 c. $ 25,000 plus the amount they use in 2021 before the 2020 financial statements are released

3. Consider a society of identical individuals who live for two periods. They have the following utility: In co + 3 5 In ci Each individual earns $600 when young, in period 0, and no income in period 1, when old. They can borrow and lend at interest rate r, and the price of consumption is 1. (a) Write down this individual's lifetime budget constraint (b) Solve for this individual's consumption in period, and savings, as a function of r. (c) Suppose now that there is a Social Security program. The gov- ernment collects $ 60 from this individual in period 0, and gives it back with interest r in period 1. i. What kind of social security system is this? ii. What is the new amount of savings? iii. What is the impact of this program on the individual's wel- fare? (d) Suppose some individuals have utility 1 In co +In c₁ 9 The social security system still forces them to save $60. i. If they are still free to borrow and lend at r, what will their optimal choice of consumption and savings be,…

28. What is the level of investment, I? (A) $250 billion. (B) $305 billion. (C) $345 billion. (D) $555 billion. The next two questions involve the following information. The real interest rate, r, is the nominal interest rate, i, minus inflation, 7. In formal terms, r = i- T. For example, if an investment offers an annual return of 5 percent, and inflation is 2 percent, then the real interest rate is 3 percent. 29. You purchase a $1,000 face-value bond for $800. The coupon is $100 per year, and inflation is 4 percent per year. What is the nominal yield on the bond? (A) 6 percent. (В) 8.5 рercent. (C) 10 percent. (D) 12.5 percent. 30.

1---consider a consumer who earns income each month. person has to spend each month on essential goods, such as food and personal. person has no access to reliable savings, so person must spend her entire income each month. The consumer is interested in taking a loan to finance a large purchase. The cost of capital for banks is fixed at each month and the monthly interest rate charged to borrowers is . Both and are equal to one plus the interest rate as we are used to seeing it – e.g., if a loan charges 5% monthly interest, then = 1.05 2---What is the largest nonessential purchase that the consumer can make each month without borrowing? Express it as a function of y c 3--Under the zero profit condition for lenders (i.e. banks), what will the interest rate charged to borrowers be? Assume there is no risk of default and no fixed costs and express it as a function of(capital k), y,c 4--What is the borrower’s monthly disposable income (exclusive of essential purchases) with a loan, under…

The consumer views present and future consumption as perfect complements and would like to consume equal amounts in both periods, i.e., . Suppose, however, that there is a credit market imperfection that prevents this consumer from borrowing at all, i.e., . a. Show the consumer's lifetime budget constraint and indifference curves on a diagram. Note that because the consumer prefers to purchase present and future consumption in equal amounts, the indifference curves will be kinked at. Note also that because the consumer cannot borrow, the budget constraint will be kinked at the consumer's initial endowment. Recall that the budget constraint is given by: Recall also that the consumer's endowment for each period can be expressed as: b. Calculate the consumer's optimal current-period and future-period consumption and optimal saving and show this in your diagram. Does the existence of the credit market imperfection affect the consumer's choices? Recall that savings is given by: c. Suppose…
