Neha and Sonam consume only Coke and Pepsi in a two person and two goods exchange economy. Neha consumes these two goods in fixed proportions such that she consumes 2 bottles of coke with 1 bottle of Pepsi. Sonam's utility function is given by U = 4P + 3C . In the economy, there is a total of 100 bottles of Pepsi and 200 bottles of Coke. If Neha initially had 60 bottles of Pepsi and 80 bottles of coke, then in the equilibrium position, Sonam will consume: A. between 50 to 60 bottles of Pepsi B. between 52 to 60 bottles of Pepsi C. between 54 to 60 bottles of Pepsi D. between 56 to 60 bottles of Pepsi

Anne is going to the grocery store to buy some fruit. She can buy either apples or oranges. Let a be the quantity of apples she buys, and let zo be the quantity of oranges she buys. Her utility function is: u(xa, xo) = ln xa + 3 ln xo Anne has y pounds to spend. The price of apples is pa and the price of oranges is po (a) (b) Write down Anne's budget constraint and utility maximization problem, and the Lagrangian associated with this utility maximization problem. Find Anne's Marshallian demand functions for apples and oranges. Find Anne's indirect utility function.
Andrea has a budget of £21 to spend on toothbrushes and tooth paste. He does not receive any utility from owning a toothbrush, but for the consumption of every tube of tooth paste he gains a utility of 2 utils – but only if he owns a tooth brush. Without a tooth brush, Andrea gains no utility from consuming tooth paste. In addition, after consuming 10 tubes of tooth paste, a toothbrush needs to be replaced, i.e., Andrea needs to buy a new one. The current price of tooth brushes on the market is £5 and the current price for tooth paste is £1 per tube. Assume that Andrea aims to maximise consumer surplus. a) In a graph, draw total utility as a function of number of toothpaste tubes, assuming that Andrea buys 1 tooth brush. b) How many tubes will Andrea buy if he wants to maximise consumer surplus, assuming that Andrea can buy any amount of tooth brushes? What is Andrea's total consumer surplus? c) How many tubes will he buy if the current price is £0.50 per tube? e d) Find Andrea's…

We have determined that Jenny's satisfaction from eating a Snickers bar is 30 utils, whereas Sarah's satisfaction from eating a Snickers bar is 15 utils. We also know that Jenny prefers Snickers bars over Milky Way bars. Which of the following statements can we say for sure are true? Drag the true statements to the box. Items (7 items) (Drag and drop into the appropriate area below) Jenny likes Snickers bars twice as much as Sarah does. Sarah likes Snickers bars more than Jenny likes Milky Way bars. Sarah likes Snickers bars more than Jenny does. Jenny likes Snickers bars more than Sarah does. Jenny's satisfaction from consuming a Milky Way bar must be less than 30 utils. There is not enough information to determine who likes Snickers bars the most. The price of the Snickers bar is needed in order to find out who likes it the most.
