Shifts in a budget constraint:Graham brings $30 to his local college rugby game in order to purchase lemonades and peanuts. The following diagram presents his budget constraint: According to the diagram, lemonades cost $each, and peanuts costsper bag.Adjust the diagram to show how Graham's budget constraint would change if he had brought less money to the field. (Assume the prices of lemonadesand peanuts remain the same.)Note: Select either end of the curve on the graph to make the endpoints appear. Then drag one or both endpoints to the desired position. Points willsnap into position, so if you try to move a point and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther. BAGS OF PEANUTS2018161412108642002468BC10LEMONADES1214161820BC

Joy’s budget permits her to spend $5,000 per month on either business travel or electronicmedia to transact business. The price of business travel was initially $1,000 per trip and theprice of electronic media was $500 per hour.a) Graphically sketch Joy’s budget line. b) Graphically illustrate how a 20 percent decline in the price of business travel would impact Joy’s budget set.c) Suppose that, after the price of business travel drops, Joy’s marginal rate of substitution between electronic media and business travel -1. Is she allocating resources efficiently? Explain.
Ravi has £21 to spend on pastries and biscuits. If he spends all the money on pastries, he can afford 15 pastries. The slope of Ravi’s budget line (assuming his pastries consumption is measured on the horizontal axis and his biscuits consumption is measured on the vertical axis) is -3.5 (3.5 in absolute terms). Calculate the price of a pastry and the price of a biscuit. Write down Ravi’s budget equation and draw the corresponding budget line. Mark the consumption bundle mentioned above. In your graph, clearly label the axes, the budget line, and calculate the coordinates of the points of intersection of the budget line with each axis. Interpret each of those points. Discuss how Ravi’s budget set would change if his budget doubles. Show the relevant changes graphically. How could the price of a pastry increase so that Ravi could still afford to buy 15 pastries? Discuss how Ravi’s budget constraint would change if the government imposed a tax of £0.50 per pastry and £0.50 per biscuit.
Lucas has $40 per week that he can spend on lemon soda (X) and chips (Y). The price of the lemon soda (PX) is $2 per bottle, and the price of the chips (PY) is $4 price Write down Lucas’s budget constraint. Draw the budget constraint on the graph below. Make sure to indicate the intercepts and the slope of budget constraint. Label it as BC1. Provide an economic interpretation of the slope of the budget constraint BC1 Suppose Lucas’s income decreases to $12 per week, and the price of lemon soda and chips remain the same. Write down Lucas’s new budget constraint. Then draw his new budget constraint on the same graph above. Make sure to indicate the intercepts and the slope. Label it as BC2. Suppose Lucas’s income remains to be $40 per week and the price of chips remains the same, but the price of lemon soda (PX) increases to $5. Write down Lucas’s new budget constraint. Then draw his new budget constraint on the same graph above. Make sure to indicate the intercepts and the…
Describe and graph your own example of a budget constraint using two goods (don’t forget to label your axes). In your example, make sure to state what the budget is, the price of the two goods, what the slope of the budget constraint equals (make sure to include the correct sign), and interpret what the slope represents.

Nick has $300 a month to spend on either detailing his sports car or buying bottles of good wine. It costs $100 to have his car detailed and a bottle of wine is $50. He currently buys four bottles of wine each month and has his car detailed once. If the price of car detailing decreases to $75, Nick's budget constraint will:
