C. Explain the impact on her real income when the price changed in the scenario in B
assuming income had remained constant.
Household Consumption and Budget Constraints
Kali lives on mangoes and avocados, Pm = $5, Pa = $10, and her income is $200.
A. Identify her budget constraint equation and illustrate Kali’s budget line on a graph
with eggplants on the horizontal axis and soursop on the vertical axis.
B. Identify and illustrate on a new graph Kali’s new budget constraint if her income
doubled, the price of eggplants doubled, and the price of soursop remained constant.
Stuart's utility function for goods X and Y is represented as U(X,Y)=X0.8Y0.2. Assume that his income is $100 and the prices of goods X and Y are $20 and $10, respectively.
Now a government subsidy program lowers the price of X from $20 per unit to $10 per unit.
(e) Calculate and graphically show the change in good X consumption resulting from the program.
(f) Graphically show the change in consumption attributable to the separate income and substitution effects.
(g) Show (graphically) how much the program cost the government.
Stuart's utility function for goods X and Y is represented as U(X,Y)=X0.8Y0.2. Assume that his income is $100 and the prices of goods X and Y are $20 and $10, respectively.
(a) Express his marginal rate of substitution (MRS) between goods X and Y. As the amount of X increases relative to the amount of Y along the same indifference curve, does the MRS increase or decrease? Explain.
(b) What is his optimal consumption bundle (X*, Y*), given income and prices of the two goods?
(c) How will this bundle change when all prices double and income is held constant? When all prices double AND income doubles?
(d) Derive the demand curve for good X and demand curve for good Y.
Do each of a-d, both geometrically (you need not be precise) and using calculus. There are only two goods; x is the quantity of one good and y of the other. Your income is I and u(x,y) = xy + x + y.
(a) Px = $2; Py = $1; I = $15. Suppose Py rises to $2. By how much must I increase in order that you be as well off as before?
(b) In the case described in part (a), assuming that I does not change, what quantities of each good are consumed before and after the price change? How much of each change is a substitution effect? How much is an income effect?
(c) Px = $2; I =$15. Graph the amount of Y you consume as a function of Py , for values of Py ranging from $0 to $10 (your ordinary demand curve for Y).
(d) With both prices equal to $1, show how consumption of each good varies as I changes from $0 to $100.

Why Aggregate demand is derived from ISLM model in short run ?
Q1. Depreciation Methods:
As the Manager of TAMCC Hotel, Inc., - Restaurant and Bar, you just purchased a doughnut making machine for $100,000. It has a salvage value of $10,000 and the useful life of 5 years. The machine is expected to produce 360,000 doughnuts: 70,000 in year 1; 80,000 in year 2; 90,000 in year 3; 70,000 in year 4; and 50,000 year 5.
i. Calculate the annual depreciation expense using the FIVE methods.
Select one method and show how it will be recorded in the Final Accounts
