4. Charlie likes both apples and bananas. He consumes nothing else. Charlie consumes x bushels of apples per year and x bushels of bananas per year. Suppose that Charlie's preference is represented in the following utility function: u(x,,Xy)-x,Xy . Suppose that the price of apples is S1, the price of bananas is S2, and Charlie's income is $40. (14 points) a. Draw Charlie's budget line. Plot a few points on the indifference curve that gives Charlie a utility of 150...

Question 16 1 pts A typical indifference curve is negatively sloped because: as we consume more of one good, we are willing to give up the consumption of another good without changing our utility higher indifference curves represent higher levels of utility higher indifference curves represent lower levels of utility we assume that a consumer's income is constant Question 17 1 pts A typical indifference curve: O is convex to the origin (bowed in) has a constant slope is concave...

Suppose there are two goods, food and clothing. My preference has the following properties: 1. I am rational. 2. I need at least one unit of food and one unit of clothing in order to survive. 3. I strictly prefer surviving over not surviving. 4. I am indifferent over all situations in which I do not survive 5. When I have strictly more than one unit of each good, I satisfy strict monotonicity and strict convexity....

The principle of indifference talks about how people are indifferent to what combination of goods they obtain if the goods provide the same utility. However, an individual’s indifference curve can be more weighted to a certain good if a person has a preference for one item over the other. Whoever has the most preference for the good, will demand the good the most, even if it is at a higher price. Those with minimal preference for the good will are...

Get On Question 3: Use indifference curve and constraint analysis to show how Pizza Hut can get customers to spend more money on less pizza than if Pizza Hut charged a uniform price for all pizzas. 1/2 price August 15-21 FOx To begin analysis, divide all consumption into two categories: pizza and "all other goods". Suppose "all other goods" cost $1 per unit. (If it makes analysis simpler for you, divide consumption into pizza and coke, with the price of...

@ See page 74 02 Question (5 points) Hugo carefully divides his spending into things he needs and things he wants, and he has quasilinear preferences over both goods. His preferences can be represented by the function u(x, y) = 4x + y, where x represents needs and y represents wants. Hugo faces a price of $12 for needs and $36 for wants; he has income of $180. 1st attempt Part 1 (2 points) O See Hint The graph below...

1. Sketch indifference curves for each of the following consumers for a day’s worth of coffee and food, and describe why the indifference curves take the shape they do. Draw the indifference curves as how they would look if the drank a range of 0 to 4 cups. a. Ron treats coffee and food as ordinary goods, but is neutral to coffee beyond 3 cups. b. For Gareth, food is always an ordinary good where more is better; however, coffee...

Instructions: Answer the following questions as completely as possible. Write your answer neatly and legibly. When drawing a graph, make sure that you label axes and curves, and include appropriate coordinates. Always show your work. Suppose that Bridget and Erin spend their incomes on two goods, food (F) and clothing (C). Bridget’s preferences are represented by the utility function U(F,C) = 10FC, while Erin’s preferences are represented by the utility function U ( F , C ) = 0.20 F^2...
