Using this Intertemporal Budget Constraint how can you solve for C2 (consumption in period 2)
Suppose that a company wishes to predict sales volume based on the amount of advertising expenditures. The sales manager thinks that sales volume and advertising
expenditures are modeled according to the following linear equation. Both sales volume and advertising expenditures are in thousands of dollars.
Estimated Sales Volume = 48.06 + 0.53 (Advertising Expenditures)
If the company has a target sales volume of $100,000, how much should the sales manager allocate for advertising in the budget? Round your answer to the nearest
dollar.
A consumer's consumption-utility function for a two period horizon is
0.5
U(Cg,G) =C,G"
he consumer's earned income stream is given by mo, m1 and the market rate of interest is r.
a) Write the intertemporal budget constraint in present value terms. If the consumer does not
consume anything in peripd 0, what is the most she can consume in period 1?
b) Draw a graph that shows optimal consumption in each period co* and c1*. What is the
slope of her budget line?
c) Solve the problem for optimal consumption in each period co* and c;*.
d) Suppose mọ is S50 and mị is S110 and r = 0.1. Is the consumer a borrower or a lender?
Show this outcome by drawing co*. C1*, mo, mį, and bond-holdings on your graph.

- Tom lives in two periods. In the first period, his income is fixed at $50,000; in the second, he gets a 8% raise in his income. He can borrow but cannot save at the market interest rate of 5 percent. Assume the next period consumption is put on the vertical axis). The vertical intercept of his intertemporal budget constraint is: dollars.arrow_forwardSuppose that there are T periods to maximize over. Show that the intertemporal budget constraint is Ct+2 Yt+2 Yt+1 (1+r) (1+r)² (1 + r)² Ct + Ct+1 (1 + r) + 2+...+ Ct+T+1 (1+r)² \ T = Yt + + +...+ Yt+T+1 (1+r)arrow_forwardSuppose that we have an economy with many identical households. There is a government that exogenously consumes some output and pays for it with lump sum taxes. Lifetime utility for a household is: U =InCt +ßlnCt+1 The household faces two within period budget constraints given by: Ct + St = Yt – Tt Ct+1 =Yt+1 -Tt+1 +(1+rt)St Use the Euler equation and intertemporal budget constraint to derive an expression for the consumption function. The government faces two within period budget constraints: (1) G_t + SG_t = T_t (2) G_(t+1) = T_(t+1) + (1 + r_t)SG_t In equilibrium, what must be true about S_t and SG_t?arrow_forward

- Assuming that each of the following functions are linear, give an economic interpretation of the slope of the function: F(q) is the revenue from producing q units of output b. G(x) is the cost of purchasing x units of some commodity H(p) is the amount of commodity demanded by households when its price is p d. C(Y) is the national consumption when national income is Y e. S(Y) is the total national savings when national income is Y a. С.arrow_forwardOliver gets an allowance of $100 this week and $112 next week. Let c₁ and c₂ be his consumption (measured in units of stuff) this and next week, correspondingly. The price of one unit of stuff this week is $10. Next week, the price will be $14 because of inflation. Assume that the interest rate i (both for borrowing and lending) is 0.05. Write down the intertemporal budget constraint. Note, the prices shown already has inflation built into them. You do not have to reduce the budget constraint further.arrow_forwardWrite down the Planner’s problem, as well as the Lagrangian. (Hint: There should be two constraints because aggregate consumption of each good cannot exceed the economy’s endowment.) Label the multipliers ϕ1 and ϕ2. What are the first order conditions of the Planner’s problem? (Hint: There should be 6.). Find the solution to the Planner’s problem and label the quantities (xpA; ypA) and (xpB; ypB). If we compare the first order conditions of the Planner’s problem to the first order conditions of a corresponding competitive equilibrium (CE), we can obtain a relationship between ϕx, ϕy, λ, px, and py so that the CE and the Planner’s problem give us the same solution. This is called decentralizing the Planner’s problem.Decentralize the Planner’s problem. (find the equilibrium prices and the value of λ so that the two problems have the same solution.) Can you relate this to the two welfare theorems?arrow_forward
- Suppose the Consumption function is given by: C = 60 + 0.5Y, where C and Y represent the usual parameters. How many units does a household consume when income is equal to 100?arrow_forwardVariables typically included in a multivariate demand function (other than the price and quantity of the item the demand function represents) are consumer tastes and preferences, the number of buyers, spendable (disposable) income, prices of substitute goods, prices of complementary goods, advertising expenditures, weather, and expectations. Recalling that the price of the item being considered is placed on the vertical axis, and the quantity on the horizontal axis, the other variables are termed demand shifters. Please answer the following questions about the affect changes in other variables might have on the demand for the item. These changes will either cause demand to increase (shift right) or decrease (shift left). Use either word as applicable, for the short answer. If the price of a good increases because the demand for it increases, What would you expect the demand for its complement to do? If the demand for coffee beans increases, then what is likely to happen…arrow_forwardDenote the consumption of food by x and the consumption of all other goods by y. The demand for food as a function of prices and income is given by: Qx(px,py,W)=5W/8px. Suppose that W=100, px=3, and py=5. The change in consumption of food that is caused by a 2% increase in W is approximately: An increase of 2% in demand of y. There is no change. A decrease of 2% in demand of y. A decrease of 2% in demand of x. An increase of 2% in demand of x.arrow_forward
