Paige has the utility function $ U(x, y) = \ln(x) + 4y $.Do not worry about corner solutions when answering the following questions; you can use the Lagrangian multiplier method. Paige's budget constraint is $ p_x x + p_y y = I $. ### What is the expenditure function?#### Options:1. **$E(p_x, p_y, U) = p_x g_x(p_x, p_y, I) + p_y g_y(p_x, p_y, I)$**2. **$E(p_x, p_y, U) = \left(U - \ln\left(\frac{p_y}{4p_x}\right) + 1\right) \cdot \frac{p_y}{4}$**3. **$E(p_x, p_y, U) = \left(U - \ln\left(\frac{p_x}{4p_y}\right) + 1\right) \cdot \frac{p_x}{4}$**4. **$E(p_x, p_y, U) = \left(U - \ln\left(\frac{p_x}{2p_y}\right) + 1\right) \cdot \frac{p_x}{4}$**5. **$E(p_x, p_y, U) = \left(U - \ln\left(\frac{p_y}{2p_x}\right) + 1\right) \cdot \frac{p_y}{4}$****Note:** - $ E(p_x, p_y, U) $ denotes the expenditure function.- $ p_x $ and $ p_y $ represent the prices of goods x and y, respectively.- $ U $ is the utility level.- $ \ln $ denotes the natural logarithm function.

Suppose that firm uses 3 units of labor (L) with 4 units of capital (K) in fixed proportion. Which of the following is correct? The law of diminishing MRTSLK holds and thus Lagrange multiplier method is applicable MRTSL,K is not well defined and thus Lagrange multiplier method is applicable The law of diminishing MRTSLK holds and capital and labor are perfect complements. O MRTSLK is not well defined and thus Lagrange multiplier method is not applicable

Tim lives in Vancouver and runs a business that sells pianos. In an average year, he receives $733,000 from selling pianos. Of this sales revenue, he must pay the manufacturer a wholesale cost of $433,000; he also pays wages and utility bills totalling $257,000. He owns his show room; if he chooses to rent it out, he will receive $13,000 in rent per year. Assume that the value of this show room does not depreciate over the year. Also, if Tim does not operate this piano business, he can work as a paralegal, receive an annual salary of $23,000 with no additional monetary costs, and rent out his show room at the $13,000 per year rate. No other costs are incurred in running this piano business.

Kenji lives in Mississauga and runs a business that sells pianos. In an average year, he receives $723,000 from selling pianos. Of this sales revenue, he must pay the manufacturer a wholesale cost of $423,000; he also pays wages and utility bills totalling $267,000. He owns his show room; if he chooses to rent it out, he will receive $2,000 in rent per year. Assume that the value of this show room does not depreciate over the year. Also, if Kenji does not operate this piano business, he can work as a financial advisor, receive an annual salary of $20,000 with no additional monetary costs, and rent out his show room at the $2,000 per year rate. No other costs are incurred in running this piano business. Identify each of Kenji's costs in the following table as either an implicit cost or an explicit cost of selling pianos. Implicit Cost The wages and utility bills that Kenji pays The salary Kenji could earn if he worked as a financial advisor The rental income Kenji could receive if he…
