Question 1. (Consumption-Saving Problem): Suppose that a consumer lives for two periods. The utility function of the consumer is given by with u> 0 where c and c2 are consumption in period 1 and period 2 respectively. Sup- pose that consumer has income y in the first period, but has no income in the second period. Consumer has to save in the first period in order to consume in the second period. Let s be the savings in the first...

Question 1. (Consumption-Saving Problem): Suppose that a consumer lives for two periods. The utility function of the consumer is given by 1-1 1-1 with μ > 0 where c1 and c2 are consumption in period 1 and period 2 respectively (Portfolio Choice Problem) Now suppose that the consumer can save in terms of two instruments: financial savings (s) and capital investment (k). Capital investment done in period 1 yields output ka with 0 < α < 1 in period 2....

1. Consider a variant of the two-period model of consumption-saving behavior. In this version of the model, the consumer has income y in the first period and no income in the second period. Her life-time budget constraint is c+ a - 1+r = y. (a) Draw this budget constraint in a diagram with con horizontal axis and d on vertical axis. What are the slope and vertical intercept of this budget constraint? Label the endowment point in the diagram. (3...

please give vivid answers to all questions 🙏A.) An individual lives for two periods. In period 1 the individual is a student and has an income y1=$10,000. In period 2 the individual is working and earns an income y2 = $110,000. The individual can borrow and lend al the real interest rate r = 0.1. She consumes $55,000 in period 1. a. Wrile down the inter temporal budget constraint. (3 marks) b. How much does she consume in period 2? (2 marks) c....

Please answer question a
Question 2: The consumption function with taxes that change over time To do this question you need to be familiar with the Appendix to chapter 4, which deals with the determination of the two period consumption and is on the class website (see OnQ). Households must decide how much they wish to spend on consumption today ((1+1Jel) versus consumption in the future (0+τ)G), where t is the rate of taxation on consumption (HST). Households are constrained...
