5. Jonas purchases only two goods, starfruit (S) and kiwi (K). He has an income of $60 and can buy starfruit at $2 per pound and kiwi at $3 per pound. His utility function is U(S,K)=3S+4K. That is, his (constant) marginal utility for starfruit is 3 and his marginal utility for kiwi is 4. What bundle of starfruit and kiwi should he purchase to maximize his utility? Why?

4. Kay lives in a city where housing costs $1 per square foot. They have a monthly budget of$1,000, of which they decide to allocate $500 to rent a 500 sqft. apartment and spend teother $500 on consumption. A generous relative offers Kay a deal on a 400 sqft. apartmentfor only $200 per month, which they accept. What is the equivalent variation of this transferfor Kay, in dollars per month? (Select one)(a) More than $300: Kay gets utility from both consumption and the new apartment.(b) $300: That is how much more Kay can consume with the new cost of rent.(c) $250: That is how much less Kay’s old bundle would have cost at the new prices.(d) Between $0 and $250: Kay would substitute away from her old bundle at the new prices.(e) $200: That is the additional cost of Kay’s new bundle at the old prices.(f) Between $0 and $200: Kay may prefer to substitute away from her new bundle at theold prices.(g) $100: That is the differential cost of the new apartment at the old prices.(h) $0: The new…
