1. Suppose a consumer is maximizing utility consuming a bundle apples and bananas x and has standard preferences. Her budget constraint is given by the equation 1000-2a-2b0. Apples are normal goods and bananas are normal. a) plot the optimal bundle, showing the proper indifference curve and budget constraint. Call this bundle x1 b) show the effect of an increase of a single price increase for apples on the budget constraint. Use a hypothetical budget line to identify substitution effects for...

A consumer uses his income I for the consumption of two goods ?1 and ?2. He maximises utility at given product prices ?1, ?2. His preferences with respect to both products can be described by an ordinal utility function ?(?1,?2), which exhibits a decreasing marginal rate of substitution (normal preferences). Please indicate whether the following statements are right or wrong in this context. If a statement is wrong, then describe briefly what is wrong (one sentence). a) A double value...
