Draw the yearly budget constraint between leisure and income for a worker that can earn $40/hr. Assume there are 365 days available each year, and each day has up to 16 hours available for work or leisure (8 hours is sleep). Answer the following questions:
- What is the person’s endowment?
- What is the vertical intercept of the budget constraint?
- What is the slope of the BC?
- What is the slope of the new BC if the worker now has 50% wage increase?

Draw the budget constraint between “leisure hours” on the horizontal axis and “wage income” on the vertical when the wage rate is $40 per hour. Mark an optimum point A that is meaningful. Draw a new budget constraint when the wage rate falls to $30 per hour. Show a new optimum point B. On your indifference curve diagram, decompose the effect of the wage decrease into a “substitution effect” and an “income effect” (What is the direction of the substitution...

A worker receives a wage rate w and has L hours of leisure every day (the total endowment of hours is 24 hours per day). The government taxes his income at the constant rate T. The worker spends all his income. 1. Write a budget constraint of this individual and plot it. 2. Display graphically what is the optimal consumption-leisure choice for this worker. 3. Imagine that the government increases the tax rate to T 0 . What is the...

Direction : Draw the budget constraint and answer the questions given. Suppose that your wage is $18 per hour and you have up to 70 hours per week that you could work. 1. What would your choice set and budget constraint look like now? 2. If wage rate declines from $18 to $9 how does your graph change? What is the original slope and the change in slope? 3. If instead...

On a separate sheet of paper, draw a graph representing the labor leisure decision over a year, with 4000 discretionary hours in a year. Label your axes with leisure on the horizontal axis, and consumption on the vertical axis. Assume the wage is $20 per hour. Draw a budget constraint and label the endpoints. Carefully draw an indifference curve for a utility maximizing worker who initially chooses 1500 hours of work per year. Label hours of leisure, hours of labor,...

Takashi has non-labor income from his investments of I= $80 per day, and can earn an hourly wage at his job of $30 per hour. Assume Takashi can work (or not work) as much as 24 hours in a day. a. Write a formula for Takashi’s budget constraint as a function of L (leisure hours) and C (consumption spending per day).Draw a diagram showing this budget constraint. b. Suppose Takashi’s utility function is given by U = 2lnL+ lnC, where...

Suppose Andrea has preferences over consumption (C) and leisure (l). Suppose also her time constraint is such that l + h = h¯, where h is the number of hours worked and h¯ is the time available. Suppose also h¯ = 8. If she works she receives an hourly wage (?) of 10. (a) (5 points) Suppose first her income depends only on the number of hours worked. Write and plot her budget constraint. What is the slope of her...

Draw a graph with leisure on the horizontal axis and income on the vertical axis. Assume 320 discretionary hours in a month, that can be used for labor or leisure, and that the wage is $10 an hour. Draw the budget constraint, and an indifference curve corresponding to choosing a full time 160 hour a month job. Label earnings. Assume the family would qualify for $600 in TANF benefits each month if hours of labor are zero. The program offers a $225 earned...

Part II Suppose that Chilhong's total time endowment is 24 hours and the given wage rate is W 10,000 per hour. Draw Chilhong's budget line in a diagram with leisure and labor supply on the horizontal axis and income per day on the vertical axis. Say Chilhong chooses to earn W 100,000 per day. How much is Chilhong's leisure at the equilibrium? 1. 2. How much is Chilhong's labor supply at the equilibrium? Now suppose there is a negative income...
