Lee has calculated her marginal utility from buying pizza slices and soda (shown on the table in the worksheet) and wants to use these data to decide how to rationally spend the money she has. The price of pizza is $2.00 and the price of soda is $2.00 question 9 (a) given these prices and your worksheet calculations, what is the first product lee will buy? (b) would lee ever buy four slides of pizza? Why/why not? question 10Given the data in your worksheet, how many pizza slices and sodas lee should buy to maximize her total utility if she rationally spends her budget of 10.00? question 11 when the price of pizza changes, lee's MU/$P changes. If the price of pizza decreases to $1.50 and her budget decreases to $7.50, how many pzza slices and sodas lee should buy to maximize her total utility?
Is it possible for total utility to increase while marginal utility diminishes? Explain.
Jeremy is deeply in love with Jasmine. Jasmine lives where cell phone coverage is poor, so he can either call her on the land-line phone for five cents per minute or he can drive to see her, at a roundâ€”trip cost of 2 in gasoline money. He has a total of 10 per week to spend on staying in touch. To make his preferred choice, Jeremy uses a handy utilimometer that measures his total utility from personal visits and from phone minutes. Using the values in Table 6.6, figure out the points 011 Jeremys consumption choice budget constraint (it may be helpful to do a sketch) and identify his utility-maximizing point.
Would you expect total utility to rise or fall with additional consumption of a good? Why?
Income Effects depend on the income elasticity of demand for each good limit you buy. If one of the goods you buy has a negative income elasticity, that is, it is an inferior good, what must be true of the income elasticity of the other good you buy?
