Please Answer Question number two
A. Let X denote the consumption of apples, and Y denote the consumption of grapes. The budget constraint is:
The following image shows some possible indifference curves along with the budget line.
The purple line is the consumer's budget line and the curves are some possible indifference curves.
B. An indifference curve represents all possible combinations of two goods which can be consumed to provide the same level of satisfaction. Some properties of indifference curves are:
1. Indifference curves are convex to the origin: This is the case when the consumer likes both goods.
2. Indifference curves are downward sloping: To maintain the given level of satisfaction, more and more of one good will have to be given up to gain an additional unit of the other good. This is also known as the Marginal Rate of Substitution.
3. Two indifference curves can never intersect
C. If the consumer does not like a good, she will not consume it. In this case, the consumer's budget line is given by:
The indifference curves (points) will be points on the y axis as the consumer will never consume a positive amount of X.
The shaded region below the curve shows the consumer's budget set. The consumer will maximize her satisfaction by spending all her income on consumption of Y. At equilibrium, the consumer will consume 0 units of X and 20 units of Y.

QUESTION 7 (25 points): Economic Fluctuation using AD-AS framework Suppose that the short-run aggregate supply curve has a positive slope and that the economy starts at a long-run equilibrium. Now imagine that 10 million people move to Australia they found that Australians live an average of 10 extra years due to the relax lifestyle that they enjoy. This is a permanent change in Labor in the U.S. economy. (a) (10 points) No Policy Intervention: Using the model of Aggregate Demand...

C1 [19 marks] Suppose Malcolm and Barnaby are the only two people in a pure exchange economy. Food and clothing are the only two commodities. Malcolm is endowed with 30 units of food and 10 units of clothing, while Barnaby is endowed with 10 units of food and 30 units of clothing. Let F = units of food and C = units of clothing. Malcolm’s utility function is UM = 2 min(F, C) and Barnaby’s utility function is UB =...

Please answer the following question. Please show all your work/explanation. This question asks you to recall what you know about how we study the choices of individual consumers. We will focus on an American tourist consumer in Tehran who must decide how many Persian Rugs (R) and how many ounces of Saffron (S) to purchase. Assume our consumer has complete, transitive preferences over Rugs and Saffron and prefers more to less. Explain in words the meaning of these assumptions. Draw...
7. We know that well-defined preferences over two goods have the properties that (i) indifference curves are negatively sloped, and (ii) that indifference curves are convex (so that chords between two points on the indifference curve lie in the set {(c,y) such that (c,y) (co, yo)) when (co,yo) is a point on the indifference curve). Suppose that good y is "clean air" and good c is consumption of all other goods This problem gets you to determine what these two...
