(a)_Suppose we have preferences U(X, Y) = X² Y2.. What is the utility at the bundle X = 5 and Y = 20? Create a table then graph/sketch the indifference curve through (5, 20). Interpret the MRS (with MRS = Y/X) at this bundle. < (b)_Let prices be Px = $5, Py = $5 and income M = $1000. Draw/sketch the budget constraint. Explain what the slope of the budget line means in economic terms.< (c) State the consumer's utility maximization problem and express this in words. What are the two conditions (equations) that identify the optimum? Sketch this in a figure and explain.

6 If someone has an income of 20 and he wants to buy Pepsi and hamburgers. Hamburgers are sold in an unusual way. There is only one supplier and the more hamburgers he buys, the higher the price per unit. So, hamburgers cost is a total of 2h^2 (squared) for hamburgers. Pepsi is sold at a price of $2. 1. In this case, write out the budget constraint of hamburgers and Pepsi. 2. His utility function is u(h,p) = 12h + 4p. Draw his 1) budget line and 2) a few indifference curves on a graph. 3. What is the optimal bundle for him?

Assume the prices of product X and Y are $1.50 and $1.00, respectively, and that Mr. Chen has $24 to spend. Assume a normal indifference curve. Assume that Mr. Chen needs 4 of product X to maximize utility. a. What is the slope of Mr. Chen's budget constraint. b. Write out Mr.Chen's equation to his budget constraint. c. What combination of X and Y will Mr. Chen purchase? d. Now assume that the price of Y changed from $1.00 to $2.00, redo part a, b and c,

4. Tim wants to maximise his utility given his utility function of U(A, B) = A²B4. He faces the following prices and income: PA = 25; PB = 20; M = 250. However, a change in the price of good A to PA = 22 will change his optimal bundle. If he is only interested in being able to consume his original bundle of goods, how much income would he need after the price change? (a) Tim would require £54 less income (b) Tim would require £18.33 more income (c) Tim would require £10 less income (d) Tim would require £16.66 more income (e) Tim would require £16.66 less income
