Intertemporal Budget constraint:
The price level in period 1 will be P1*(1+r) in period 0
The price level in period 2 will be P2*(1+r)^2 in period 0
The income in period 1 will be y1*(1+r) in period 0
The income in period 2 will be y2*(1+r)^2 in period 0.
Budget constraint:
P0C0 + P1C1+ P2C2 = y0 + y1 +y2
P0C0 + P1(1+r)C1 + P2(1+r)^2C2 = y0 + (1+r)*y1 + (1+r)^2*y2

Question 1. (Consumption-Saving Problem): Suppose that a consumer lives for two periods. The utility function of the consumer is given by with u> 0 where c and c2 are consumption in period 1 and period 2 respectively. Sup- pose that consumer has income y in the first period, but has no income in the second period. Consumer has to save in the first period in order to consume in the second period. Let s be the savings in the first...

Consider a household living for two periods
Consider a household living for two periods, t = 1, 2. Let ct and yt denote consumption and income in period t. s denotes saving in period 1, r is the real interest rate and β the weight the household places on future utility. The following must be true about the household’s consumption in the two periods:c1 = y1 − sandc2 = (1 + r)s + y2a. Derive the household’s intertemporal budget constraint.b. Assume that the preferences of the household can be represented by a log utility...

2. An review of intertemporal optimization: Suppose a consumer's utility function is given by U(c,2) where ci is consumption in period 1 and ca is consumption in perio You can assume that the price of consumption does not change between periods 1 and 2. The consumer has $100 at the beginning of period 1 and uses this money to fund consumption across the two periods (i.e. the consumer does not gain additional income...

Suppose Sansa lives for two periods. Her preferences are represented as follows: u(c1, c2) = (1+0.8VC2 where cı is today's consumption level and c2 is tomorrow's consumption level. Suppose Bob's income today is yı = 100 and his income tomorrow is y2 = 190. Interest rate is denoted by r. 1. Write down Sansa's optimization problem including the budget set. 2. Determine Sansa's optimal consumption bundle (Cl*, C2*) as a function of r.

Question 1. (Consumption-Saving Problem): Suppose that a consumer lives for two periods. The utility function of the consumer is given by 1-1 1-1 with μ > 0 where c1 and c2 are consumption in period 1 and period 2 respectively (Portfolio Choice Problem) Now suppose that the consumer can save in terms of two instruments: financial savings (s) and capital investment (k). Capital investment done in period 1 yields output ka with 0 < α < 1 in period 2....
