Assume an economy with two goods, x and y. A consumer has preferences u(x, y) = 2(Vx+ vý), (MU: = 1/VX, MUY = 1/./). Prices are px=1 and py=1. The consumer has an income of M=195.0. Calculate the CV (Compensating Variation) if the price of good x increases to Px'=2. No units, no rounding. Important: Don't round! Leave the numbers under the square root as they are and see if they simplify later without having to round! Do the same...

1. U = XY where MRS = Y/X; I = 1500, Px = Py = 15, A. Derive optimal consumption bundle. B. If Px increases to be $30, derive the new optimal consumption bundle C. Using the results from A and B, derive the individual demand for good X assuming the demand is linear. 2. Assuming the market has two consumers for a very special GPU and their individual demands are given below Consumer A: P = 450 – 4...

2. (24 points) Suppose a consumer has preferences represented by the utility function U(X,Y)- X2Y Suppose Py, and the consumer has $300 to spend. Draw the Price-Consumption Curve for this consumer for income values Px-1, Px 2, and Px- 5. Your graph should accurately draw the budget constraints for each income level and specifically label the bundles that the consumer chooses for each income level. Also, for each bundle that the consumer chooses, draw the indifference curve that goes through...
