You are choosing between two goods, X and Y, and your marginal utility from each is shown in the following table. Units of X MUx Units of Y MUy 1 10 1 8 2 8 2 7 3 6 3 6 4 4 4 5 5 3 5 4 6 2 6 3 a. If your income is $9 and the prices of X and Y are $2 and $1, respectively, what quantities of each will you purchase to maximize utility? ______units of X and ______units of Y b. What total utility will you realize? ______utils c. Assume that, other things remaining unchanged, the price of X falls to $1. What quantities of X and Y will you now purchase? _____units of X and ______units of Y d. Using the two prices and quantities for X, complete the table to derive the demand schedule (a table showing prices and quantities demanded) for X. Instructions: Start with the highest price first Price of X Quantity Demanded of X $ $
Modou has a utility function U(X1,X2) = 2X1 + X2. The prices of X1 & X2 are $1 each and Modou has an income of $20. H ow much X1 and X2 does Modou consume? a. X1 = 10 units and X2 = 10 units Ob. X1 = 10 units and X2 = 0 %3D O c. X1 = 20 units and X2 = 0 O d.X1 = 0 and X2 = 20 units
The figure to the right represents the demand for ice cream cones. Which of the following statements is true? O A. Points a and b may not necessarily be the utility - maximizing quantities of ice cream cones at two different prices because we have no information on the consumer's budget or the price of other goods. B. Points a and b are the utility - maximizing quantities of ice cream cones at two different prices of ice cream. O C. Points a and b are derived independently of the utility - maximizing model. O D. Point a could be a utility - maximizing choice if the price is $3 but point b may not be because we have no information on the marginal utility per dollar when price changes. Price $3 1 3 4 Demand Quantity

Budget line becomes flatter and consumer is not able to afford some bundles that were affordable before. Budget line becomes steeper and consumer is able to afford new bundles that were not affordable before.
