5. A consumer faces a standard linear budget constraint and has preferences that can be represented by the following utility function: U(x,y)= x + 2 In y. a) Suppose that we have an interior solution. Derive the demand functions for x and y. Denote the price of x by p,, the price of y by p,, and income by m. b) Is it necessarily the case that the optimal consumption is interior the way we assumed in part a)? If...

Assume that Sam has following utility function: U(x,y) = 2√x+y. Assume px = 1/5, py = 1 and her income I = 10. (e) Draw an optimal bundle which is the result of utility maximization under given budget set. (Hint: Assume interior solution). Define corresponding expenditure minimization problem (note the elements for expenditure minimization problem are (i) objective function, (ii) constraint, (iii) what to choose). (f)Describeaboutwhatthedualityproblemis. Definemarshalliandemandfuction andhicksiandemandfunction. (Hint: identifytheinputfactorsofthesefunctions.) (g) Consider a price increase for the good x from...

7. Mark has linear preferences over plain yogurt and hamburgers described by, U = 4H+ Y, where H is the number of hamburgers, and Yis pounds of yogurt. Fully label your diagram. a. The price of hamburgers, PH - S5/burger, and the price of yogurt, Py = $1/pound. Mark has $80 in income. Putting yogurt on the 'Y' axis, use a graph to show Mark's budget constraint. How do you interpret the slope of the budget line? b. On the...

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,...
