Assume an economy with two goods, x and y. A consumer has preferences u(x, y) = 2(Vx+ vý), (MU: = 1/VX, MUY = 1/./). Prices are px=1 and py=1. The consumer has an income of M=195.0. Calculate the CV (Compensating Variation) if the price of good x increases to Px'=2. No units, no rounding. Important: Don't round! Leave the numbers under the square root as they are and see if they simplify later without having to round! Do the same...

2. (24 points) Suppose a consumer has preferences represented by the utility function U(X,Y)- X2Y Suppose Py, and the consumer has $300 to spend. Draw the Price-Consumption Curve for this consumer for income values Px-1, Px 2, and Px- 5. Your graph should accurately draw the budget constraints for each income level and specifically label the bundles that the consumer chooses for each income level. Also, for each bundle that the consumer chooses, draw the indifference curve that goes through...

Suppose a consumer’s preferences are represented by the utility function U(X,Y) = X2*Y. Therefore, MUx = 2XY • MUy = X2 Also, suppose the consumer has $32 to spend (M = $32), PY = 1, and that they spend all of their money on goods X and Y. Also, assume the consumer maximizes their utility subject to their budget constraint. Complete the following table: Px Quantity Demanded of X $1 $2 $3

Suppose the preferences of an individual are represented by a quasilinear utility function: U (x, y) = ln(x) + y (a)Suppose px =1, py =5 and I = 20. The price of x increases to 2 (px = 2). Calculate the changes in the demand for x. What can you say about the substitution and income effects for small changes in the price of x? What happens to the demand for y? Is y a gross substitute? (b)Now suppose px...
