For the Cobb-Douglas utility function: the income and substitution effects are necessarily the same size. there is only an income effect, no substitution effect. there is only a substitution effect, no income effect. O the demand for each good is independent of changes in the price of the other good.

10. Assume an individual's preferences are represented by the following indifference map and he has an income of S400. Which of the following is shown when the price of Good I is $20 and the price of Good 2 increases from $10 to S16? Note: Even though the price of Good 2 is increasing, the steps to determine the income and substitution effects are the same. 50 45 40 35 30 25 20 15 10 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 Good 1 Good 2 is a normal good. Good 2 is an inferior good, but not a Giffen good. Good 2 does not satisfy the Law of Demand. • Ignoring the Income Effect, the Substitution Effect will cause the individual to consume more of Good I. A.

Which of the following is true about utility? O Utility same for all the consumers O Utlity is subjective Utility for a good is constant O Utlity is same as usefulness
Consider the increase in the price of a can of soda and assume that soda is a normal good. Describe how the income and substitution effects impact on the demand for the cola if its price increases. Also describe how these two effects interact for inferior goods if there is a fall in the price of the good. Use bullet points
Answer the following short questions:a. Suppose that a consumer’s preferences between goods x andy are represented by the utility function u(x, y) = x^2 + 16xy + 64y^2. If these two goods have the same price, describe the optimal consumptionchoice of this consumer.b. Suppose that when the price of a good change, the incomeand substitution effects change the consumer’s demand for that goodin opposite directions.i. Is this good a normal or an inferior good? Explain.ii. Is this good a Giffen or an ordinary good? Explain.c. Is the following statement true or false? The differencebetween a monopolist’s marginal cost and its profit-maximizing price issmaller when the demand is more elastic.
Please see below. I need help with these. Note this goes together.
In two commodities world, utility function for a consumer and her income are given respectively. 11 U = x2y2 I= 480 If the price of these goods are Px= 15 and P, = 60 what would be her demand for these two goods * =? and y =? If the price of first good P has increased from 15 to 60. To keep her utility fixed how much does she need to spend for these two goods at least. In other words what should be her minimum income.
Consider the following graph. Assume that income increases, and the budget constraint line shifts to the right. The utility-maximizing choice on the original budget constraint is A. Enable ZoomPan

Question In the utility function above, x and y are substitutes.The Consumer Maximization Problem is as follows:Max(x;y)=5x + 6y subject to x + 2y = 10, We know MRSxy=5/6, find it by setting U(x, y) = U¯ and solving the utility function for y and what is the price ratio? Full explain this question and text typing work only thanks
A consumer has income of 15000. Masks costs $35 per mask, and sanitizers cost $70 per bottle. The price of mask rises from $35 to $40 per mask, while the price of saniizer is unchangeD. For a consumer wih consant income of 15000, show what happens to consumption of both goods (assume both goods are normal goods) decompose the change into income and substitution effects
