Write down Rachel's utility function for eggs and toast. Derive her demand functions for eggs and toast. b. Predict what will happen to her consumption of eggs and toast if an income tax cut increases her income by 5%, ceteris paribus. Justify your prediction.arrow_forward2. Muhammad's demand for fresh fish is perfectly income inelastic, and his income increases. If Muhammad's preferences for fish are well-behaved, show the effect of this increase in income on the change in his optimal choice of fresh fish, his expenditure on all other goods, and draw his income-consumption curve. Clearly label your graph.arrow_forward
- Please do it fast solvearrow_forwarddo fastarrow_forwardColumns 1 through 4 of the accompanying table show the marginal utility, measured in utils, that Ricardo would get by purchasing various amounts of products A, B, C, and D. Column 5 shows the marginal utility Ricardo gets from saving. Assume that the prices of A, B, C, and D are $18, $6, $4, and $24, respectively, and that Ricardo has an income of $105. What quantities of A, B, C, and D will Ricardo purchase in maximizing his utility? How many dollars will Ricardo choose to save? Check your answers by substituting them into the algebraic statement of the utility‑maximizing rule. In other words, show it works when using this rule.arrow_forward
- Exercise 2 Suppose you have the following hypothetical demand or sales function. Qx= -4Px+2Py+0.201+0.04A and PX = $200, (price of good X) PY =$230, (price of good Y) 1 = $1,500 (disposable per capita income) A=$12,000 (advertizing expenditures) a.

Tea costs $4/cup and coffee costs $5/cup. Also, tea is subject to a quantity tax of $1/cup, and coffee is subject to a value tax of 0%. By how much will the slope of Matt's budget constraint change if his income were to increase from $14 to $37?arrow_forward
