Please ans all three and make sure if hand writing then it will be clear please.

Each term (3 months) the current group of economics students completed a questionnaire as to how much they would spend on new purchases compared to how much they would save/pay off bills, if they suddenly and unexpectedly received a check for $1,000. The average MPC is shown in the table below. Month in which student poll was taken Average of students’ responses as MPC March 0.41 June 0.30 September 0.22 December 0.56   What do these MPC’s imply about the students’ thinking over the course of the year?   (Enter response here.)   What is likely happening in the economy during the same period of time?

1. Refer to graph (multiple choice) A. Refer to Graph. If the current wage rate results in a budget constraint of AB1, the individual will choose a. 0D hours of work and AD hours of leisure. b. AC hours of work and 0C hours of leisure. c. AD hours of work and 0D hours of leisure. d. 0C hours of work and AC hours of leisure.   B. Refer to Graph. If there is a movement from equilibrium C to Equilibrium D, which one is the most accurate conclusion:   a. The labor supply is decreasing b. The labor supply is increasing c. The individual is spending less hours working and the labor supply is decreasing d. The individual is spending more hours working   C. Refer to Graph. The slope of the budget constraint AB1 is given by a wage = W1. A movement from AB1 to AB2 is due to:   a. An increase in non-income wealth b. An increase in wage c. A decrease in non-income wealth d. A decrease in wage

13. (Use this information to answer qustion 13 - 16) Suppose a household solves the following two-period consumption-savings problem max u(c₁) + Bu(c2) {C1,C2} s.t. aw Y1 - C1 C2y2 (1+r)a with u(c) = √c where c₁ is consumption at time 1, c2 is consumption at time 2, y₁ is houshold income at time 1, 2 is houshold income at time 2 and w is the initial wealth. Suppose the incomes of the household are $50 in time 1 and $210 in time 2. The initial wealth is $100, the discount factor is 0.975 and interest rate is 5%. Solve for the household's choice of C1. (a) 125.12 (b) 126.58 (c) 175.16 (d) 341.88 14. Now a government wants to introduce income tax in both time 1 and time 2 {1, 2} to finance a construction project that costs $50 in time 1 and another $52.5 in time 2. Which ones of the following are the household intertemporal budget constraints. (a) y1 + 1/2 =C1+ 1+1 Y2 (b) w+y1 + = C₁ + 1+r 1+r (c) wy1T1 + Y2 T2 1+r Y2 1+r = €1 + 12 1+r (d) wy171 + =C1+ 1+r C2 (1+72) 1+r 15. Solve for the…

3. [Sometimes, it's useful to think about what fraction of a consumer's money they spend on each good, rather on how many units they buy. (a) Show that every x EX(p,m) can be written as x = f1(m/p₁,0) + f2(0, m/p2 ) + (1-f1-f2)(0,0) for some numbers f1,f2 20 with f1 + f2 ≤1. (b) Let f1 and f2 be as in part (a). Give an expression, in terms of f1 and f2, for the fraction pix₁/m of the consumer's money that they spend on good 1. (c) Let f1 and f2 be as in part (a). Give an expression, in terms of f1 and f2, for the fraction p2x2/m of the consumer's money that they spend on good 2

Question 7 (10 points) Listen Figure 2-7 HOURS WITHOUT SLEEP Refer to Figure 2-7. Taking cause and effect into account, which of the following interpretations would be most reasonable regarding the relationship between coffee and hours without sleep? The less coffee a person drinks per day, the more time he can go without sleep. There is no relationship betwveen how much coffee per day a person drinks and how long he can go without sleep. The more coffee a person drinks per day, the more time he can go without sleep. The more coffee a person drinks per day, the less time he can go without sleep. Question 8 (10 points) V Saved CUPS OF COFFEE PER DAY

5. (12) Max is stocking up on ice cream and cookies; ice cream costs $2 and cookies cost 50 cents ($.50). The marginal utility gained from each treat is given in the table below.
