Arlo is very health-conscious and consumes only two goods, rice
cakes and quinoa. His utility function is ?(?,?)=?2?u(r,q)=r2q,
where ?r is the number of packs of rice cakes he consumes and ?q is
ounces of quinoa. The price of a pack of rice cakes is $4, and the
price of an ounce of quinoa is $8. Arlo has $720 to spend this week
on these two goods. Suppose that the price of quinoa suddenly falls
to $4.
A)Before the price...

Utility maximization with more than two goods Suppose that there four goods Q, R, X and Y , available in arbitrary non-negative quantities (so the the consumption set is R 4 +). A typical consumption bundle is therefore a vector (q, r, x, y), where q ≥ 0 is the quantity of good Q, r ≥ 0 is the quantity of good R, x ≥ 0 is the quantity of good X, and y ≥ 0 is the quantity of...
Malachi only consumes 2 goods: DVD rentals and coffee. His
utility function is
where is the number of
rentals and is cups of coffee.
Malachi has $16 in his pocket right now, and he plans to spend all
of the $16 on DVD rentals and coffee today.
b) Suppose that Malachi signs up for a membership that reduces
the price of a rental to $2, while leaving his income
unchanged.
Find the substitution effect, income effect and total effect of...

6. A Wisconsin resident Sarah only consumes two goods: Bananas (B) and Apples (A). Her utility is given by the formula: U AB You are also told that Sarah's marginal utility for consuming bananas and her marginal utility from consuming applies are given by the following equations: Marginal Utility for Bananas: MUB A Marginal Utility for Apples: MUA B a) Given this information and holding everything else constant, fill out all the missing information in the table below. Utility 100...
Ex. 1: Imagine there are two goods, X and Y. The utility function is: U = XY. The price of X is $2 and the price of Y is $4. The budget is $20. What is the optimal quantity of X and Y to consume? Ex. 2: Imagine there are two goods: books and coffees. Your utility function is U = BC, where B is the number of books you consume and C is the number of coffees you consume....
