Please no written by hand and no emage Consider a consumer that consumes 2 teaspoons of sugar with each cup of coffee. For each cup of coffee with sugar the consumer gains 10 utils.a) Write down the utility function that gives the total utility if the consumer consumes S teaspoons of sugar and C cups of coffee. The consumer has assigned £7 per week to be spent on drinking coffee with sugar. The current price of coffee is £0.50 per cup and each spoon of sugar costs £0.10. b) Calculate the optimal weekly consumption bundle for this consumer.c) Does the consumer view C and S as complements or substitutes?
Graph and explain indifference curves for the following situations:(i) An individual has constant marginal utility toconsumption in both periods.(ii) An individual does not derive utility from this period’sconsumption, but does from the next period’sconsumption.(iii) An individual’s utility decreases with consumption inboth periods.
A consumer buys Bread (B) and Milk (M) each week at price of 20 and 16 respectively. Suppose that the consumer's current consumption of Bread and Milk is giving him MUBread = 80 and MUMilk = 70. Is the consumer buying the utility-maximizing combination of bread and milk? If not, how should he reallocate his expenditures between the two goods to maximize utility? Draw diagram and explain.
he Calculus of Utility Maximization and Expenditure Minimization -End of Appendix Problem uppose that there are two goods, X and Y. The price of X is $2 per unit, and the price of Y is $1 per unit. There are two onsumers, A and B. The utility functions for the consumers are UA(X,Y)= X05.05 UB(X,Y)= X0.8y0.2 Consumer A has an income of $100, and Consumer B has an income of $300. Using Lagrangians, solve for the optimal bundles of goods X and Y for both consumers A and B. a. The optimal bundle for consumer A is X = 25 and Y* = 50 - b. The optimal bundle for consumer B is X = 120 and Y* = 60

Pls help with thsi question I am stuck Given the image attatched: 1.Given the above Marginal Utilities and prices to form the optimality condition for utilitymaximization. According to this optimality condition, what must be the ratio of Films toBooks in an optimal consumption bundle? 2. Given your answer to Q9, what must be the household’s optimal consumption of F & Bgiven their income (m)? 3. Suppose that the price of Films changed from $2 to $4. What would need to happen tothe MRS according to the optimality condition in Q9 if the household wanted to keepmaximizing its utility?
Question 3Draw indifference curves for the following sets of preferences and indicate the direction inwhich the individuals’ satisfaction (or utility) is increasing. Be specific about slopes when itis necessary. Assume for both parts (a) & (b) that soft drinks are measured on x-axis andhamburgers on the y-axis. (a) Mary always gets twice as much satisfaction from an extra hamburger as she does froman extra soft drink. (b) Bob loves soft drinks but dislikes hamburgers.
