Suppose an individual only consumes two goods, X and Y. Which of the following statements is true? O a. Marshallian demand for X and Y are homogenous of degree zero in prices. O b. Indirect utility is homogenous of degree zero in prices. Oc. When X and Y are both normal goods, the consumer has constant expenditure shares for both goods. O d. Marshallian elasticity ep, is more negative than Hicksian elasticity ep. when X is a normal good. Clear my choice

Draw the following scenario: Assume a piece of jewelry and 2 consecutive drops in its price. Also consider Alia’s demand to be relative elastic in the price range from ? 1to ? 2, and that she perceives jewelry as a Giffen good in the price range from ? 2to ? 4. Draw her price-consumption curve with well-behaved preferences. Clearly label your graph. The graph may be something like this:
Anya is currently consuming $1000 worth of consumption goods C and spending 30 hours in leisure I per week, where her marginal rate of substitution is 20. Assume that the price of a consumption good C is $1. This implies that she is willing to: O a. sacrifice 20 hours of leisure to get an extra $1 worth of consumption. O b. sacrifice $20 worth of consumption to enjoy the next hour of leisure. O c. her current utility will be higher by $20 if she gets one more unit of leisure. O d. she values the next unit of consumption at $20.
Q3. Create your own question for utility maximization. Provide the price of products X & Y and the income level and assume that they are fixed. a.
