The diagram illustrates a change in the price of a book, affecting the consumer's budget. The original budget line is Bc, while the new budget line, after the price change, is Bd. This shift is due to a lower price of books, allowing the consumer to afford more books with the same budget. The graph shows:- The vertical axis represents "Movies per month."- The horizontal axis represents "Books per month."- Points B, C, D, A, E, F, and G are marked along the budget lines and the curve.Explanation:- **Budget Line Bc**: This is the initial budget constraint, showing combinations of books and movies the consumer can afford before the price change.- **Budget Line Bd**: After the price change, this line shows the new combinations of books and movies that the consumer can now afford.- **Indifference Curves**: Indifference curves illustrate different combinations of goods that provide the consumer with the same level of satisfaction. Point A is on one indifference curve while points E and G are on others.The question asks about the substitution effect, which represents how consumers substitute one good for another when prices change, holding utility constant. It asks which movement between points best illustrates this effect:A. Movement from point A to point E. B. Movement from point A to point G. C. Movement from point F to point G. D. Movement from point A to point F. The substitution effect is typically shown by a movement along the same indifference curve from the initial choice to a new point after the price change, adjusting consumption to maximize utility given the new budget constraint.

Substitution effect is the change in the quantity consumed or demanded by a consumer due to a change…

Following exercise is requested:(a) Draw a budget line knowing that: nominal income is $100/week, price of lamb meat (Pm) is $2/kilo and price of housing (Ph) is $20/week. It is also known that ALL INCOME is spent on both goods.b) Assume now that monetary income remains CONSTANT, but price of lamb meat DOUBLES to $4/kilo, while the price of housing DECREASES to $10/week. Draw new budget line.

On the graph below, the consumer begins at L1. The relative prices change to L2. Complete the table and the sentence below. (Hint: The dashed line is a reference line to show us the income effect. Point B shows only the income effect. The change from A to B is the income effect. The change from B to C is the substitution effect.)

Assume that a consumer can buy only two goods, X and Y, and has an income of $13,000. The price of X is $60 and the price of Y is $140. What is the slope of the budget line if X is measured horizontally and Y is measured vertically? Note that you will need to include a negative sign in your answer. If needed, round your answer to the nearest two decimal places.
