Thor Odinson has really let himself go. He spends all of his income only consuming whole pies of pizza () and cases of beer (b), priced at p. 5 and p = 15, respectively. Suppose Thor's utility funetion is given by u(3,0) = 2'and his income is I = 300. (8 points total) (a) Salve for Thor's optimal bundle of pizza pies (?) and cases of beer (b). (2 points) (1) Draw Thor's budget constraint, optimal bundle, and indifference curve...

4. Andy's utility is represented by the function U(X,Y) - XY. His marginal utility of X is MUx = Y. His marginal utility of Y is MUY = . He has income $12. When the prices are Px - 1 and Py -1, Andy's optimal consumption bundle is X* -6 and Y' = 6. When the prices are Px = 1 and P, = 4, Andy's optimal consumption bundle is X** = 6 and Y* 1.5. Suppose the price of...
Catherine has a monthly income of $500, which she spends on pizzas and a composite of all other goods, the price of a pizza is $5. 2. Catherine has a monthly income of $500, which she spends on pizzas and a composite of all other goods. The price of a pizza is $5 a. Draw Catherine's budget constraint. Label your values of the intercepts and the slope of the budget constraint. (Place pizza on the horizontal axis) b. Assume Catherine...
Jon Snow consumes pizza and burgers. His utility function is u(P, B) = PB where P is the number of pizzas and B is the number of burgers. Jon Snow has $30 to spend, and he plans to spend it all on pizza and burgers. The price of one pizza is $10 and the price of one burger is $3. (a) Find and label Jon Snow’s initial optimal bundle on a graph where pizza is on the x-axis and burgers...
3. Ma consumes two goods: beer and beer nuts. Her utility function is Ma has a daily income of $16, which she spends on these two goods. The price of her preferred beer is $4 (micro brew) and nuts is $2 per bag. Find Ma's optimal consumption bundle. Free of charge Ma signs up to a frequent drinker club and the price of her preferred beer reduces to $2 under the scheme. Find the Income and Substitution Effects ofthe decrease...
please solve exercise 8.21 es the consumer buy at the higher price of beer and her new different consumption bundle from O? llicks compensation? Explain h. Using red ink, draw the draw the new budget line and label the new optimal point, Point C. books and CDs does the consumer purchase at the new prices and her original which income? old new budget line in blue ink and label the new optimal consumption bundle, Point j. Draw this new budget...
Sally consumes two goods, X and Y. Her preferences over consumption bundles are repre- sented by the utility function r, y)- .5,2 where denotes the quantity of good X and y denotes the quantity of good Y. The current market price for X is px 10 while the market price for Y is Pr = $5. Sally's current income is $500. (a) Write the expression for Sally's budget constraint. (1 point) (b) Find the optimal consumption bundle that Sally will...
Jeff is deciding his optimal consumption bundle, where there are two possible goods he could purchase. He can consume good x and good y, both of which are priced at $1. His utility function can be given by U(x,y) = 2x^2 (y^2) a.) Find his optimal consumption bundle if he has $100 to spend b.) What is his optimized utility? c.) Suppose his income doubles to $200. What are the income and substitution effects, in terms of the good x?...
