1. Charlie’s utility function for weekly consumption of bananas (B) and Apples (A) is given by U = BA . a. Suppose Charlie consumes 20 bananas and 10 apples in a week. Sketch his indifference curve through that bundle on a diagram. (While it doesn’t really matter which good is on the horizontal axis, for consistency with our classwork, assume bananas are on the horizontal axis.) b.
