(Answer should be in the form of numerical characters, e.g. 20) Enter your answer hereEren’s two main hobbies are taking vacations overseas (V) and eating expensivemeals (M). His utility function is given as: U(V,M) = V2MLast year, the average price of taking a vacation overseas was US$200 and the averageprice of an expensive meal is $50. However, due to supply problems in Onions, theaverage price of an expensive meal rose to $75. The average price of a vacation did notchange. His income, which is $1500, did not change. Suppose that the Department of Welfare wants to know how much should begiven to Eren to offset his change un utility due to the price increase of an expensivemeal. Calculate the compensative variation (CV).Eren’s two main hobbies are taking vacations overseas (V) and eating expensivemeals (M).

His utility function is given as: U(V,M) = V2MLast year, the average price of taking a vacation overseas was US$200 and the averageprice of an expensive meal is $50. However, due to supply problems in Onions, theaverage price of an expensive meal rose to $75. The average price of a vacation did notchange. His income, which is $1500, did not change. Calculate the change in consumer surplus from consuming the expensivemeals considering the price change (Hint: you need to compare his optimalconsumption bundle before and after the price change to get the change in CS).Q- Marginal utility can never be negative.

She could choose between leisure (L) and helping her neighbour with the house chores. If she decides to help her neighbour, she is going to get paid at £25 per hour, which she can then spend on her favourite pizza (P). Suppose the price of pizza is £12.50. Aisha's preferences for leisure and pizza are given by the following utility function: U(L, P) = 3L + P. (MU₁ = 3, MUp = 1). a) Write down Aisha's budget equation and draw the corresponding budget line. Clearly label the axes and calculate the coordinates of the points of intersection of the budget line with each axis. b) Calculate Aisha's marginal rate of substitution between leisure and pizza. Explain the concept of MRS and interpret the figure obtained. c) Find Aisha's optimal consumption bundle, both algebraically and graphically. Explain your reasoning. d) Would Aisha's optimal choice change if she could get a discount on her pizza purchases so…

For each cup of coffee with sugar the consumer gains 10 utils.a) Write down the utility function that gives the total utility if the consumer consumes S teaspoons of sugar and C cups of coffee. The consumer has assigned £7 per week to be spent on drinking coffee with sugar. The current price of coffee is £0.50 per cup and each spoon of sugar costs £0.10. b) Calculate the optimal weekly consumption bundle for this consumer.c) Does the consumer view C and S as complements or substitutes?Hello, I need some help with the attached question, parts b) and c). The topic is on constrained consumer optimisation.U(x, y) = xayb A consumer maximises utility subject to a budget constraint M = Pxx+Pyy Where px is the price of good x, py is the price of good y and M is the budget available. a. Derive an expression for the marginal utility of x. Under what condition is the marginal utility diminishing. b. Derive an expression for the marginal utility of y.
