Zog is in equilibrium with an income of $300, facing prices P=$4 and Py-$10. a. How much X does Zog consume? b. If the price of X falls to $2,50, while income and the price of Y stay constant, how much X will Zog consume? c. How much income must be taken away from Zog to isolate the Hicksian income and substitution effects (i.e., to make him just able to afford to reach his old indifference curve at new prices)? d. The total effect of the price change is to change consumption from the point to the point e. The income effect corresponds to the movement from the point the substitution effect corresponds to the movement from the point f. Is X a normal good or an inferior good? to the point to the point while
(In this question we denote income by Y, not by W as in the lecture notes). The following figure shows the consumption of x and y for two market situations. The income effect of a change in price of x from px to px’ is? Negative and is dominated by the substitution effect. Positive and reinforces the substitution effect. Positive and dominates the substitution effect. Negative and dominates the substitution effect. Negative and reinforces the substitution effect.

Marvin has a Cobb-Douglas utility function, 0.5 0.5 U= 91 92 his income is Y = $900, and initially he faces prices of p₁ = $1 and p2 = $4. If p₁ increases from $1 to $2, what are his compensating variation (CV), change in consumer surplus (ACS), and equivalent variation (EV)? Marvin's change in consumer surplus (ACS) is $ minus sign if necessary.) Marvin's compensating variation (CV) is $.

What is the exact change in Jackie's consumer surplus. A+B7 How large is area 87 In this example, assume the price of music tracks (in pounds) increases from £0.6 to £1, as shown in the figure. Also, let Y be Jackie's income, which is £30. State Jackie's uncompensated demand function for music tracks given her initial budget Jackie has a utility function where is music tracks and is live music. Let py be the price of music tracks and let the price of live music be normalized to one If income, Y, is 30, what is Jackie's uncompensated demand for music tracks, 9₁?

John has $300 as income and he uses his income only for apples and bananas. If he uses his income only for apples, he can buy 10 pounds. If he uses his income only for bananas, he can buy 15 pounds. Which one is the correct formula for his budget constraint when X=pounds of apples, Y=pounds of bananas and the prices are per pound? a) More information is needed to answer the question. b) 15X + 10Y = 300 c) 10X + 15Y = 300 d) 20X + 30Y = 300 e) 30X + 20Y = 300
