4. Charlie likes both apples and bananas. He consumes nothing else. Charlie consumes x bushels of apples per year and x bushels of bananas per year. Suppose that Charlie's preference is represented in the following utility function: u(x,,Xy)-x,Xy . Suppose that the price of apples is S1, the price of bananas is S2, and Charlie's income is $40. (14 points) a. Draw Charlie's budget line. Plot a few points on the indifference curve that gives Charlie a utility of 150...
please show all your works 1. Craig consumes apples and bananas. We had a look at two of his indifference curves. In this problem we give you enough information so you can find all of Craig's indifference curves. We do this by telling you that Craig's utility function happens to be U(XA, XR) = XAXB a. Craig has 40 apples and 5 bananas. Craig's utility for the bundle (40,5) is? b. Draw the indifference curve showing all of the bundles...
7. Charlie consumes apples and bananas. We had a look at two of his indifference curves. In this problem we give you enough information so you can find all of Charlie's indifference curves. We do this by telling you that Charlie's utility function happens to be U (XA, xB ) = xA* x8 (a) Charlie has 40 apples and 5 bananas. Charlie's utility for the bundle (40, 5) is U (40 5)- The indifference curve through (40, 5) includes all...
Diana's utility function for consuming apples (Xa) and Bananas (Xb) is U(Xa,Xb) = XaXb. Suppose the prices of apples is $1, bananas $2, and her income is $40. On a graph with bananas on the y-axis, use blue ink to draw Bianca’s budget line.With red ink, plot an indifference curve that gives her a utility level of 150. Using black ink, plot an indifference curve that gives her a utility level of 300. Can Bianca afford any bundles that give...
3. Consider Charlie who consumes apples (xi) and bananas (2). Suppose that he consumes one apple and 8 bananas. That is, his current consumption bundle is (1,8). (a) Suppose that Charlie's marginal rate of substitution for one more apple is 2 bananas. If he is offered to trade apples and bananas at one-to-one rate, does he trade? Explain your answer. (b) Suppose that Charlie's preference is convex. If he were to consume 8 apples and one banana, his marginal rate...
Charlotte and Wilber are two agents in a two-agent, two-commodity pure exchange economy where apples and bananas are the two commodities. Charlotte loves apples and hates bananas. Her utility function is Ucu, b) = u 5 , where a is the number of apples she consumes and b in the number of bananas she consumes. Wilber likes both apples and bananas. His utility function is Uca, b) = a +2Vb. Charlotte has an initial endowment of no apples and 8...
