For option a when m=10, consumption bundle is (2,1) which costs only 8, so a better bundle can be obtained as the income is not utilised fully.
For option b, we can see that as the income increases from 12 to 18, consumption bundle changes from (2,2) to (1,4). We do not that the utility has increased or decreased with the increase in income because the quantity demanded of the first good has decreased. So we cannot certainly say whether the utility has increased or decreased.
For option c , as the income increases from 12 to 18 , the goods basket becomes smaller from (2,2) to (1,1). This shows that money is not fully used and better consumption bundles can be chosen with an income of 18. It can also be seen that the utility has decreased inspite of an increase in income.
For option d,all the conditions are fulfilled , the consumption patterns are consistent with assumptions.
6. Suppose prices are given by pı 2 and p2 -4. Which of the following consumption...
2. Consider the following four consumers (C1,C2,C3,C4) with the following utility functions: Consumer Utility Function C1 u(x,y) = 2x+2y C2 u(x,y) = x^3/4y^1/4 C3 u(x,y) = min(x,y) C4 u(x,y) = min(4x,3y) On the appropriate graph, draw each consumer’s indifference curves through the following points: (2,2), (4,4), (6,6) and (8,8), AND label the utility level of each curve. Hint: Each grid should have 4 curves on it representing the same preferences but with different utility levels. 3. In the following parts,...
