2. Use a budget line and indifference curve to answer the following question. There are two goods X and Y. Label your diagram fully and explain. a. Show an initial equilibrium consumption choice of good X and good Y. b. The price of good X rises. Show the income effect, substitution effect, and the total effect which result from an increase in the price of good X. Assume that both X and Y are normal goods.

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.

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...

2. Identifying normal, inferior, and Giffen goods The green line BC, on the following graph represents your initial budget constraint for good X and good Y, and point A represents the optimal consumption choice, given this choice set. Suppose the price of good X dropped by 50%. The compensated budget is parallel to BC2, representing the same tradeoff between good X and good Y, and it is tangent to the given indifference curve (U) at point B. On the following...

The graph shows Tom’s budget line and indifference curve for good x and y. The price of good x is $40 . If he uses all of his income on good Y , then 20 units of y will be consumed. If all income is spent on good x then 4 units will be consumed. What is the marginal rate of substitution of good y for x at the point where the indifference curve is tangent to the budget line?
