please urgent EXERCISE 2 Ravi has £21 to spend on pastries and biscuits. If he spends all the money on pastries, he can afford 15 pastries. The slope of Ravi’s budget line (assuming his pastries consumption is measured on the horizontal axis and his biscuits consumption is measured on the vertical axis) is -3.5 (3.5 in absolute terms). a) Calculate the price of a pastry and the price of a biscuit. Write down Ravi’s budget equation and draw the corresponding budget line. Mark the consumption bundle mentioned above. In your graph, clearly label the axes, the budget line, and calculate the coordinates of the points of intersection of the budget line with each axis. Interpret each of those points. b) Discuss how Ravi’s budget set would change if his budget doubles. Show the relevant changes graphically. How could the price of a pastry increase so that Ravi could still afford to buy 15 pastries? c) Discuss how Ravi’s budget constraint would change if the government imposed a tax of £0.50…
4. John has a utility for the quantity of sandwiches, Xs, and quantity of burgers, Xp, that he consumes, represented by the following equation: U(X,X) = XX His income is Y = $24. The price of a sandwich changes from X, = $1 to X, = $4 while the price of a burger remains at X, = $6. Solve for the compensating variation and equivalent variation associated with this price increase.

The following figure shows the indifference curves and two budget line of student Tuna whose choices are apple and banana. The Initial price of Banana is €4/kg, when budget line is B1. Initially Tuna was at equilibrium at point A. Answer the following questions according to the information given on the diagram. Show your calculations below. a. What is the weekly Income of Tuna? (). b. If Tuna's initial preference is at A how much Banana she consumes? (" c. If Price of Banana decreases to €3/kg and she moves to point B, how much Apple she will consume at B? (. d. If the demand curve for Banana will be derived by using the indifference curves on figure 1, what will be the Price and quantity coordinates of Point A and Point B on figure 2? Apples Price Bananas Quantity

3. Based on each scenario in this question, indicate whether the following statements is true or false, and briefly explain your reasoning. You may also want to use a graph in your explanation if you think it's necessary. a) Mike makes $500 per week and spends all her income on books and tea. Books cost $25 each, and Mike buys 16 each week. Tea costs $5 per cup, and Mike buys 20 cups. When Mike's income falls to $450 per week, he cuts his consumption of books by 3 books and purchases 5 more cups of tea. Based on Mike's consumption behaviors, books are an inferior good and Tea is a normal good. b) Lucy consumes food and clothing. For incomes near her current income, her income expansion path is negatively sloped. Assume that food is measured along the horizontal axis and clothing is measured along the vertical axis. Therefore, at current income levels, both food and clothing must be inferior good. c) For any normal goods, the income and substitution effects work in the same direction.…

With RM13 of income, the household intends to spend all the income on both goods. a. Compute the marginal utility for each quantity in Table 1.1. b. Solve the utility maximizing problem by identifying the number of Good X and Good Y that the household should purchase (based on marginal utility per price).
