4. Ann has $600,000 that she could consume or leave as a bequest to her daugh- ter. Plotting her consumption (C) on the horizontal axis and the bequest (B) 3B on the vertical axis, Ann finds that her indifference curves have slope Distrusting banks, she keeps her wealth in the form of gold. Thus her wealth earns no interest but is protected from inflation. Her bequest to her daughter C is (a) $150,000 (b) $200,000

Suppose a person lives for 4 periods. His salary during each period of his life is $30, $60, $90 and $0. He was born without any financial wealth. 1. If the interest rate is 8% per period, what is the present value of the income of this agent? 2. If the individual wishes to have a constant consumption during his life, what will it be? Deduct his level of savings during each of the 4 periods of his life. 3. Suppose our individual cannot borrow (but can save). Determine the consumption and savings profile of the individual. 4. Suppose our individual receives an inheritance at birth of $10. How your answer in c) be affected?
A consumer's current income (y) is 200 and the future income ( t.') is 240. A current lump sum tax (t) of 10 is paid and the tax in the next period (t) is 15. The real interest rate is 20% for each period. Please assume that current and future consumption are complements. and the consumer always prefers to have one unit of current consumption and two units of consumption in the future. Calculate the optimal current and future consumption and the optimal current and future savings. Is the consumer a lender or a borrower? How does he she. as a lender or a borrower. affect the future consumption?

Julia is indifferent between points A and B. O d. Julia values an additional unit of consumption now more highly than an additional unit of consumption later. Consumption later ($)
