- Suppose point A occurs where there is no borrowing or savings. Which of the following will
Is (are) correct?
- A preference towards current consumption should cause the indifference curve to become flatter and C2 consumption should rise.
- A preference towards future consumption should cause the indifference curve to become flatter and C2 consumption should rise.
- A preference towards future consumption should cause the indifference curve to become steeper and C2 consumption should rise.
- An increase in r will cause the relative price of C2 to fall.

All other things remaining equal, which of the following changes would cause the AD curve to become steeper? To become flatter? an increase in the interest-rate responsiveness of autonomous consumption an increase in the interest-rate responsiveness of real money demand an increase in the marginal tax rate an increase in the marginal propensity to import an increase in the income responsiveness of real money demand

Question 1: Changes in the real interest rate and borrowing constraints Consider the problem of an agent that has an endowment of y- 2 apples in period 1 and y2 in period 2, and takes the real interest rate r as given. Preferences are given by: 4 apples U (c1,c2)log (ci) + log (c2) where cı and c2 denote consumption of apples in period 1 and period 2, respectively. a) Solve for c1,c2 and savings when the real interest rate...

Consider the typical individual in Fisher’s two-period model, who chooses between current and future consumption (C1 and C2) to maximize utility. Their preferences are such that the substitution effect dominates the income effect and savings increases when the interest rate rises. Draw the intertemporal budget constraint and indifference curve for this individual saver when r = 0.10. Label the utility-maximizing point by A. Which is greater, the marginal utility C1 or the marginal utility of C2? How do you know?...

Which of the following would cause the interest rates to increase in the near future The government doubles the amount of money added to the economy. The economy starts to slide into a recession. Concern increases regarding the national security of the US (i.e. the risk associated with investing in the US economy). A large demographic shift occurs in which people retire and live off their savings (this will increase the time preference for consumption). Choice 1, 3, and 4...

(1 point) Suppose that you have two consumption choices: good X, and good Y. An indifference curve is the set of consumption choices with a CONSTANT utility. For example if consuming 10X and 6Y gives me the same utility as consuming 11X and 5Y, then these are both points on the same indifference curve. An indifference map is the set of all indifference curves with EVERY given utility. Consider the indifference map given by: U = XY, where U is...
