Jane has 11 liters of soft drinks and 10 sandwiches. Bob, on the other hand, has 9 liters of soft drinks and 10 sandwiches. With these endowments, Jane's marginal rate of substitution (MRS) of soft drinks for sandwiches is 5 and Bob's MRS is equal to 7. Draw an Edgeworth box diagram to show whether this allocation of resources is efficient. If it is explain why. If it is not, what changes will make both parties better off? 1.) Using the three-point curved line drawing tool, draw an indifference curve for Jane when consuming 11 liters of soft drinks and 10 sandwiches. Label this curve Uj. 2.) Using the three-point curved line drawing tool, draw an indifference curve for Bob when consuming 9 liters of soft drinks and 10 sandwiches. Label this curve Ug.

The following diagram shows his budget constraint: SUCES OF PIZZA 20 18 16 14 12 4 2 0 4 6 U BC 10 SODAS According to the diagram, sodas cost 5 12 14 16 18 20 each, and puzza costs $ BC ? per slice. Adjust the diagram to show how Van's budget constraint would change if he had brought more money to the ballpark (Assume the prices of sodas
The utility possibility frontier is defined as the set of maximum utility levels for all consumers that is feasible in the economy, given resource constraints and preferences. For a two-consumer economy, it is defined formally as the solution to: u (ūB) = max u A (xA) subject to ug(xB) > ūg and (xA, XB)feasible. For each of the economies above, find an equation for the utility possibilities frontier, and graph it.

A and B consume only two goods, cider (C) and dumplings (D). A has an initial endowment of 10 bottles of C and 30 of D. Bob has an initial endowment of 50 bottles of cider and 50 dumplings. Alice’s utility function is uA(CA,DA) = 9ln(CA) + 10ln(DA), where CA and DA represent consumption of C and D, respectively. B’s utility function is uB(CB,DB) = CBXDB, where CB and DB denote B's consumption of C and D. a) Find the competitive equilibrium, i.e. the price ratio, of this exchange economy and the resulting equilibrium allocation. b) Find the expression of the contract curve for this economy and use your answer to check that the equilibrium allocation you found in (b) is indeed Pareto optimal.

Question 6 Listen Efficient resource allocation should be accomplished when any production of a product shows the marginal benefit outweighs marginal cost of its output. 1) True 2) False Question 7 ) Listen If we say that two variables are inversely related, this means that an increase in one variable is associated with a decrease in the other. 1) True 2) False Question 8 ) Listen Consider the problem Amy faces of how to allocate her weekly allowance between books and videos. An increase in Amy's allowance will a) shift her budget line to the right b) rotate her budget line, allowing her to buy more videos but not more books c) rotate her budget line, allowing her to buy more books but not more videos O d) shift her budget line to the left
4. Aaron and Burris have the following utility functions over two goods, x and y. Aaron’s utility function: UA(xA, yA) = min{xA/3, yA} Burris’s utility function: UB(xB, yB) = 9xB + 3yB Aaron’s endowment is eA = (2, 4). Burris’ endowment is eB = (10, 8). In an Edgeworth Box diagram, show which allocations are in the core. Solve for the set of Pareto optimal allocations (i.e. the contract curve) in the Edgeworth Box. Illustrate the contract curve in an Edgeworth Box diagram. Let good y be the numeraire (i.e. set py = 1 and let px = p). Solve for the Walrasian competitive equilibrium allocation and price ratio.

Suppose there are two consumers, A and B. There are two goods, X and Y. There is a TOTAL of 8 units of X and a TOTAL of 8 units of Y. The consumers' utility functions are given by: UA(X,Y) = 2X + Y UB(X,Y) = X*Y2 Which of the following allocations is Pareto Efficient? None of the other answers are Pareto Efficient. Consumer A gets 3 units of X and 8 units of Y, and Consumer B gets 5 units of X and O units of Y. Consumer A gets 4 units of X and 4 units of Y, and Consumer B gets 4 units of X and 4 units of Y. Consumer A gets 1 units of X and 4 units of Y, and Consumer B gets 7 units of X and 4 units of Y. Consumer A gets 8 units of X and 8 units of Y, and Consumer B gets 0 units of X and O units of Y.

1.2 Ann and Bob each own 10 bottles of beer and, altogether, they own 20 bags of peanuts. There are no other people and no other goods in the economy, and no production of either good is possible. Using a to denote bottles of beer and y to denote bags of peanuts, Ann's and Bob's preferences are described by the following utility functions: UA (XA, YA) = TAYA and UB (XB, YB) = 2xB+ YB. In each of the following cases, determine the market equilibrium price ratio and allocation and depict the equilibrium in an Edgeworth box diagram. (a) Bob owns 20 bags of peanuts and Ann owns no peanuts. (b) Bob owns 15 bags of peanuts and Ann owns 5 bags. (c) Ann owns 20 bags of peanuts and Bob owns no peanuts.
