Refer to Figure 21-19. Assume that the consumer depicted in the figure has an income of $20. The price of Skittles is $2 and the price of M&M's is $4. The consumer’s optimal choice is point (Hint: Solve using the budget constraint formula)
- A. A
- B. B
- C. C
- D. D
Homework Answers
Answer - Option A
Point A
The optimal choice of consumption will be point A. This is because at this point (2*4+4*3) makes up $ 20 which is exact as per the budget constriant of $ 20 which is not being met at point B.

l. A consumer has €100 of income to allocate between chocolate and soda. Chocolate costs per unit. (a) Suppose when soda costs 4 per unit, the consumer chooses 20 sodas. Draw the budget constraint and indifference curve to represent this budget and choice. (You can assume that the indifferences curves are regular, ie convex to the origin.) Now the company introduces a deal whereby the price falls to є3.00 if the consumer buys more than 20 sodas. So if the...
