Huang is determining how much Coke and Pepsi he will buy. Use the information in italics to answer the bolded question below. • Huang's preferences for Coke (C) and Pepsi (P) are represented by the following utility function: U = 2C + 3P • Huang has $12 to spend on soft drinks. • The price of Coke (P) is $0.50/can. • The price of Pepsi (Pp) is now $0.75/can, which is lower than its previous price of $1.00/can. Let's say the price of Pepsi drops to $0.75/can. Which of the following statements best describes how this price drop for Pepsi impacts Huang's utility maximizing consumer choice? [Select] How is Huang's utility impacted by the decline in the price of Pepsi? [Select ]
Suppose a consumer has preferences represented by the utility function U(X,Y) = X2Y Suppose PY = 1, and the consumer has $300 to spend. Draw the Price-Consumption Curve for this consumer for income values PX = 1, PX = 2, and PX = 5. Your graph should accurately draw the budget constraints for each income level and specifically label the bundles that the consumer chooses for each income level. Also, for each bundle that the consumer chooses, draw the indifference curve that goes through that bundle. Make sure to label your graph carefully and accurately. Note:- Do not provide handwritten solution. Maintain accuracy and quality in your answer. Take care of plagiarism. Answer completely. You will get up vote for sure.
Please get correct, I keep getting wrong. Thank you so much.

Joan has a monthly income of €100 that she allocates to two goods: meat and potatoes. Suppose meat costs €4 per pound and potatoes €2 per pound. Suppose also that her utility function is given by the equation U (M, P) = 2M + P. An outbreak of potato rot raises the price of potatoes to €4 per pound. What combination of meat and potatoes maximizes her utility? A. M = 25, P = 0 B. M = 20; P = 30 C. M = 20; P = 10 D. Any combination of meat and potatoes that satisfies her budget constraint

John has a utility function for goods x1 and x2 which is represented by u(x1,x2)=x10.2x20.8. Assume her income is 100 TL and the prices of x1 and x2 are 10 TL and 20 TL, respectively. A) What is the optimal consumption bundle, given income and prices of the two goods? B) How will this bundle change, when all prices double and income is held constant? When all prices double and income doubles? C) Derive the Engel curves.
Questions 1. Will's utility from vacations (91) and meals (92) is given by the function U(V, M) = 91 x 92. Last year, the price of vacations was $200 and the price of meals was $50. This year, the price of meals rose to $75, while the price of vacations remained the same. Both years, Will had an income of $1500. (a) What is the compensating variation for the price change in meals? (b) What is the equivalent variation for the price change in meals?
Suppose the utility function for goods x and y is given Utility = U(x,y) = xy +y Suppose price of both x and y is $1. You have total $10 to spend. Suppose price of x changed to $0.5. Price of y and your disposable income remain the same: a. calculates the change in the amount of good x, that is caused by the substitution effect (the effect on consumption due to a change in price holding real income or utility constant). b. calculate the change in the amount of good x, that is caused by the income effect (the effect on consumption due to a change in real income caused by a change in price).
