Lisa consumes only two goods, pizzas and burritos. In equilibrium, her marginal utility per slice of pizza is 10 and her marginal utility per burrito is 8. Instructions: Enter your answer rounded to two decimal places. If a slice of pizza costs $3, then the price of a burrito must be $
A consumer has a budget of £12 to split between two goods: good 1 has a price of 2, good 2 has a price of 3. Write the consumer’s budget constraint algebraically. Convert this budget constraint into the formula for the budget line. Show this line on a suitably labelled graph. The consumer’s budget increases to £24. Show the effect of this change graphically. A consumer dislikes good 1, and dislikes good 2. Show these preferences on a suitably labelled graph with an indifference curve. Label the graph: which areas would be preferred to those on the line?
The prices she's considering are shown in the table below. Calculate the utility for each of the prices in the table. What is the average of the calculated utilities?
Peter's preferences over two goods, x and y, are represented by the utility function u(x, y) = y + 2x. a) Peter is currently consuming bundle A = (2,4) with 2 units of good x and 4 units of good y. Calculate his current level of utility from consuming this bundle. b) Write the expression the indifference curve representing Peter's current level of utility (i.e., the one you found in part (a). Next draw this indifference curve. c) By looking at the indifference curve you drew in part (b), answer the following questions: Does Peter like good x? Good y? Explain. What can you say about the marginal rate of substitution of good x for y, MRSxy? Is it positive? Negative? Constant? Increasing? Decreasing? Interpret/explain your answer in terms of the tradeoffs Peter is willing to make between goods to keep the same utility level. d) On the same graph you drew in part (b), draw the indifference curve for a utility level of 10. Plot and label in the graph bundles B = (1,2), C = (1,6), and D =…
