(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, ₁ is houshold income at time 1, y2 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
