Suppose that a consumer’s utility function is U=xy with MUx=y and MUy=x. Suppose the consumer‘s income is $480. For this question you may need to use the following approximations: sqrt(2) is approximately 1.4, sqrt(3) is approx. 1.7 and sqrt(5) is approx 2.2. a) Initially, the price of y is $4 and the price of x is $6. What is the consumer’s optimal bundle? b) What is the consumer's initial utility? Now suppose that price of x increases to $8 and...

A consumer has the utility function U(X, Y) = (X + 2)(Y + 4). Her income is $100, the price of X is $4, and the price of Y is $5. In order to maximize utility subject to her budget constraint, how many units of X and Y will our consumer choose to purchase? Sketch a budget line – indifference curve diagram illustrating this optimum. Label this optimum A. Suppose the price of X increases to $8, while income and the price...

Question 2 A consumer purchases two goods, food (x) and clothing (y). He has the utility function U(X,Y) = XY, where X and Y denote amounts of X and Y consumed. Marginal utilities of X and Y are MUx = y and MUy = x. The consumer’s income is $72 per week and that the price of y is Py = $1 per unit and price of x is Px1 = $9 per unit. What are his initial quantities of X and...
