2. Cindy gains utility from consumption C and leisure L. The most leisure she can consume in any given week is 80 hours. Her utility function is: U(CL)= (1/3) x L (2/3). a) Derive Cindy's marginal rate of substitution (MRS). Suppose Cindy receives $800 each week from her grandmother-regardless of how much Cindy works. What is Cindy's reservation wage? b) Suppose Cindy's wage rate is $30 per hour. Write down Cindy's budget line (including $800 received from her grandmother). Will...

Clark gains utility from consumption c and leisure l and his preferences for consumption and leisure...
Clark gains utility from consumption c and leisure l and his preferences for consumption and leisure can be expressed as U(c, l) = 2(√ c)(l). This utility function implies that Clark’s marginal utility of leisure is 2√ c and his marginal utility of consumption is l √ c . He has 16 hours per day to allocate between leisure (l) and work (h). His hourly wage is $12 after taxes. Clark also receives a daily check of $30 from the...

Problem #1: Optimal labor supply Clark gains utility from consumption c and leisure l and his preferences for consumption and leisure can be expressed as U(c, l) = 2(√ c)(l). This utility function implies that Clark’s marginal utility of leisure is 2√ c and his marginal utility of consumption is l √ c . He has 16 hours per day to allocate between leisure (l) and work (h). His hourly wage is $12 after taxes. Clark also receives a daily...

7. ) Shelly's preferences for consumption and leisure can be expressed as U(C, L) (C-100) x (L-40). This utility function implies that Shelly's marginal utility of leisure is C- 100 and her marginal utility of consumption is L - 40. There are 110 (non-sleeping) hours in the week available to split between work and leisure. Shelly earns S10 per hour after taxes. She also receives $320 worth of welfare benefits each week regardless of how much she works a) Graph...

13) Consider the standard labor-leisure choice model. Consumer gets utility from consumption (C) and leisure (L). She has H total hours. She works N S hours and receives the hourly wage, w. She has some non-labor income π and pays lump-sum tax T. Further suppose (π – T) > 0. The shape of utility function is downward-sloping and bowed-in towards the origin (the standard U- shaped case just like a cobb-douglas function) If this consumer decides to NOT WORK AT...

Mr. Simpson’s preferences for consumption and leisure can be expressed as U(C,L)=(C-100)(L-68). There are 168 hours in a week available for him to split between work and leisure. He earns $20 per hour after taxes. He also receives $300 worth of welfare benefits each week regardless of how much he works. What is Mr. Simpson’s optimal level of consumption? What is Mr. Simpson’s reservation wage? Suppose that in addition to the $300 government welfare, Mr. Simpson receives from his oversea...
