Yunqin always gets twice as much satisfaction from an extra burger as he does from an extra Boost juice.

Qpurger 3 1 2 3 5 Qjuice The graph above includes two budget lines with different slopes to help you answer the following question. Which conclusions can you draw about Yunqin's utility maximising choices? Select all that applies. Yunqin would never consume both burgers and juice at the same time O Yunqin always consumes only juice O if Yunqin' budget line is flatter than his indifference curves, then he consumes only juice O if the ratio of the price of burger to the price of juice is larger than 2, then Yunqin consumes only juice 2.

Paul loves hot drinks, and he has a part of his weekly budget earmarked for buying them. In the diagram below, you can find three examples IC1, IC2 and IC3 for indifference curves that represent Paul's preferences for tea and coffee, and three examples X, Y and Z for specific bundles of weekly tea and coffee consumption.
Emily is a utility maximizer. Her income is $100, which she can spend on cafeteria meals and on notepads. Each meal costs $5 and each notepad costs $2. At these prices Emily chooses to buy 16 cafeteria meals and 10 notepads. a) Draw a diagram that shows Emily’s choice using an indifference curve and her budget line, placing notepads on the vertical axis and cafeteria meals on the horizontal axis. Label the indifference curve, I1, and the budget line BL1. Make sure you calculate the endpoints of the budget constraint. b) The price of notepads falls to $1; the price of cafeteria meals remains the same. On the same diagram, draw Emily’s budget line with the new prices and label it BL2. c) Lastly, Emily’s income falls to $90. On the same diagram, draw his budget line with this income and the new prices and label it BL3. Is she worse off, better off, or equally as well off with these new prices and lower income than compared to the original prices and higher income?

Suppose Jack's utility function U(m, e) = min(m, e). Graph Jack's indifference curves when U = 4 and U = 8. B. Leslie buys 2 goods: z and y. His utility function is U(z,y) = 5x+3y. 1. Plot this consumer's indifference curves when U = 15 and U = 20. What is the shape of Leslie's indifference curves? 3. For Leslie, how are these two goods related? C. Leslie's friend Tim has a different utility function for the same goods U(x, y) = √zy. 1. Plot this consumer's indifference curves when U = 15 and Ū = 20. 2. What is the shape of Tim's indifference curves? D. A consumer's utility function for goods 2 and y is U(z,y) = x+2y. 2. 1. Calculate the consumer's marginal utility for each good at (2,2) (Hint: marginal utility represents the amount of utility the consumer gains by consuming one more unit of this good. You can…
Suppose that the only items you consume are bread and wine. If the price of bread were to increase tomorrow, and if simultaneously your income were to increase by just enough so that you were equally as happy tomorrow as today, what would happen to the level of your consumption of bread ?
