Answer:

D) Susie would buy more massages and fewer rounds of golf,as predicted by the substitution effect.

Explanation:

Let's check the utility that Susie gets from consuming these products.

The second round of golf gives her 20 units of satisfaction at $20 = 20/20 = 1

The third massage gives her 30 units of satisfaction at $30 = 30/30 = 1

But now the price the price for massage has come down to $15. The ratio of their prices would be

20/15 = 1.333

1.3 is greater than 1

So she should substitute golf for massages

Shelly’s preferences for consumption and leisure can be expressed as U(C, L) = (C – 100) * (L – 40). This utility function impli
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Explanation:

U(C, L) = (C – 100) × (L – 40)

(a) C = (w - t)[110 - L] + 320

C = 10[110 - L] + 320

C + 10L = 1420

where,

C- consumption

w - wages

t - taxes

L - Leisure

(b) Given that,

L = 100 then,

C = 420

MRS=\frac{MU_{L} }{MU_{C} }

MRS=\frac{C-100 }{L-40}

MRS=\frac{320}{60}

              = 5.33

(c) L = 110

C = 320

Reservation wage:

MRS=\frac{C-100 }{L-40}

MRS=\frac{220}{70}

= 3.14

(d) At optimal level,

\frac{C-100}{L-40}=\frac{10}{1}

C - 100 = 10L - 400

C - 10L = -300

C = 10L - 300

Using budget constraint:

C + 10L = 1420

10L - 300 + 10L = 1420

20L = 1720

L* = 86 and C* = 560

Answer:

d. not all resources are equally suited to producing every good.

Explanation:

The rule of increasing cost of opportunity is the principle that, when you keep increasing the development of one item, the cost of opportunity of creating the next unit rises.
