Two grad students go out to lunch and decide to split the bill evenly between them. Each student has a quasi-linear utility function given by ui(fi, xi) = φi(fi)+xi, where φi(·) is strictly concave, fi is the amount of food consumed by student i, and xi is a composite numeraire good. Each student has a fixed budget of mi. EVALUATE THIS CLAIM: Both students eat too much!

A consumer has preferences on Amazon original shows (x), and the composite good (y) described as u(x,y) = x2y (HINT: MUx = 2xy and MUy = x2) and she has I = $300 budget in total. Assume pY = $1, so we can think of y as the saved dollars in her pocket for other uses. Now, if she is not an amazon prime member, each show costs pX = $10, but if she is a prime member, then pX = $4. Amazon prime membership costs $120. (a) Draw her feasible budget set on the x-y axis for the no-prime-membership case, and the prime-membership case, separately. (b) If she chooses not to be a prime member, what is her optimal bundle (x,y) ?(c) If she chooses to become a prime member, what is her optimal bundle (x,y) ?(d) What is her optimal utility in (b)?in (c)? Would she want to become a prime member?

Consider an economy with one consumption good, 100 identical consumers and 100identical firms. Each consumer is endowed with one unit of time and one unit ofcapital. The agent can spend time either working or enjoying leisure. A represen-tative consumerís utility function is u (x; l) = ln x + 2 ln l, where x is consumptionof goods and l is leisure. Each firm hires consumers to work and rents capital fromconsumers to produce goods: y = f (K; L) = K^1/2L^1/2, where L is the amount oflabor hired and K is the amount of capital rented. Both consumers and firms takegoods price p, wage rate w and rental rate r as given. Normalize p = 1. 1.
