8 Joe buys two goods, beer and wine, which are substitutes. Also, assume that beer is an inferior good. a. Draw an indifference curve-budget line diagram showing the substitution and income effects of an increase in the price of wine. b. How do you know from your graph that beer and wine are substitutes and that beer is inferior?

Assume X and Y are economic goods. Plot X on the x axis and Y on the y axis using graph paper. Assume income is $50 and the price of X is $2.50 and the price of Y is $5.00. Draw the original budget line and show a utility maximizing interior equilibrium using an indifference curve. a. Draw a new budget line if the price of X falls to $2.00. Show using indifference curves the substitution and income effects if...

1. Suppose Oreos and Hydrox are perfect substitutes, one for one (Hydrox were chocolate cookies with vanilla filling that stood up better in milk than Oreos.). If Oreos currently sell for 50 cents and Hydrox sell for 75 cents, use both graphs and words to explain income and substitution effects that occur when the price of Oreos to rise to $1. (Hint: pay attention to the shape of the indifference curve for perfect substitutes.) 2. Suppose Voodoo Donuts and Stumptown...

Jane commutes to work. She can either use public transport or her own car. Her indifference curves obey the four properties of indifference curves for ordinary goods 1. Draw Jane's budget line (BL,) with car travel on the vertical axis and public transport on the horizontal axis 2. Suppose that Jane consumes some of both goods. Explain how her optimal consumption bundle can be obtained. Then, draw an indifference curve that helps you illustrate that optimal consumption bundle represented by...

1) A) Use a budget line and Indifference curve to show an initial optimal consumption bundle of onions and peppers. Assume onions are normal goods and peppers are inferior goods. Next suppose the price of peppers increases. Graphically Illustrate and explain the income and substitution effects.

Question 2 A consumer purchases two goods, food (x) and clothing (y). He has the utility function U(X,Y) = XY, where X and Y denote amounts of X and Y consumed. Marginal utilities of X and Y are MUx = y and MUy = x. The consumer’s income is $72 per week and that the price of y is Py = $1 per unit and price of x is Px1 = $9 per unit. What are his initial quantities of X and...
