The consumer is endowed with 24 hours of time in a day. A consumer's daily leisure hours are equal to 1 = 24-h where h is the number of hours a day the consumer chooses to work. The price of consumption p is equal to 1 and the consumer's hourly wage is w. The consumer faces an ad valorem tax on their earnings of 7 percent. The con- sumer also receives some exogenous income Y that does not depend on how many hours she works (e.g. an inheritance). The consumer's preferences over consumption and hours of work can be represented by the utility function U(c, h) = c-3h¹+, where 3 > 0 and p > 0 are parameters. 1+parrow_forward
