Suppose that Jacob spends his entire (I) of $100 on concerts (C) and movies (M). The prices of a concert (Pc) and movie (Pm) are $20 and $10, respectively. The following table summarizes the data on his marginal utity per dollar (MU/P) for each unit of concerts and movies.

Q5. Suppose that marginal utility of Good X = 100, the price X is $10 per unit, and the price of Y is $5 per unit. Assuming that the consumer is in equilibrium and is consuming both X and Y, what must the marginal utility of Y be? P12. The following tables illustrate Eileen’s utilities from watching first-run movies in a theater and from renting movies from a video store. Suppose that she has a monthly movie budget of $36,...

118) Microelum g. If the ski resort owner eliminates the possibility of buying single ride lift tickets and instead sells only an all-day lift pass, entitling the skier to as many trips up the mountain as desired, what is the maximum price that could be charged (willingness to pay) without discouraging the skier from coming to the ski resort? Hint: The skier will pay the price up to where MU - zero; and MC (marginal cost) of additional skilin is...
Quick intuition check via True or False Questions 1. 2. If all prices double and income triples, then the budget line will become steeper There are two goods. You know how much of good 1 a consumer can afford if she spends all of her income on good 1. If you knew the ratio of the prices of the two goods, then you could draw the consumer's budget line without any more information. lf good l is on the horizontal...
Question 1: Louis the retired Canadian lives on a fixed budget and consumes only two goods: toques (T) and maple syrup (M). Suppose Louis monthly budget is 100 and the price of the two goods are (PT,PM) (4,2). (a) Make a properly labeled diagram illustrating Louis'budget constraint with T on the hori- zontal axis and M on the vertical axis. Indicate the area corresponding to the set of bundles (M, T) that Louis can afford. (b) What is the maximum...
2. Consider the following four consumers (C1,C2,C3,C4) with the following utility functions: Consumer Utility Function C1 u(x,y) = 2x+2y C2 u(x,y) = x^3/4y^1/4 C3 u(x,y) = min(x,y) C4 u(x,y) = min(4x,3y) On the appropriate graph, draw each consumer’s indifference curves through the following points: (2,2), (4,4), (6,6) and (8,8), AND label the utility level of each curve. Hint: Each grid should have 4 curves on it representing the same preferences but with different utility levels. 3. In the following parts,...
1. Consumer’s utility function is: U (X,Y) = 10X + Y. Consumer’s income M is 40 euros, the price per unit of good X (i.e. Px ) is 5 euros and the price per unit of good Y (i.e. Py) is 1 euro. a) What is the marginal utility of good X (MUx) for the consumer? ( Answer: MUx = 10) b) What is the marginal utility of good Y (MUy) for the consumer? ( Answer: MUy = 1) c)...
