He spends all of his income on 10 muffins at $1 each and 20 cups of coffee at $2 each. Muffins and coffee are ordinary goods. Now, the price of a muffin rises to $1.50 and the price of coffee falls to $1.75 a cup. Will Jim now be able and want to buy 10 muffins and 20 coffees? Which situation does Jim prefer: muffins at $1 and coffee at $2 a cup or muffins at $1.50 and coffee at $1.75 a cup? When the price of a muffin rises to $1.50 and the price of coffee falls to $1.75 a cup, Jim able to buy 10 muffins and 20 coffees.

- What is “Compensating Variation”? What is “Consumer’s Surplus”? What is “Equivalent Variation”? What are they trying to measure?Use the information below to answer the following questions. Fact 9.3.1 Marc has an income of $20 and spends it on two goods, root beer (measured on the vertical axis) and chips (measured on the horizontal axis). The price of root beer is $1 a can. The price of chips is $0.50 a bag. Initially, Marc chooses to consume 10 cans of root beer and 20 bags of chips. Then the price of root beer rises to $1.50 per can and the price of chips falls to $0.25 a bag. Refer to Fact 9.3.1. Mare's initial marginal rate of substitution was OA equal to 2 cans of root beer given up for each bag of chips gained. OB. equal to 10 cans of root beer given up for each bag of chips gained. OC not calculable with the information given. OD equal to 1 can of root beer given up for each bag of chips gained. OE. equal to 1/2 can of root beer given up for each bag of chips gained.Ravi has £21 to spend on pastries and biscuits. If he spends all the money on pastries, he can afford 15 pastries. The slope of Ravi’s budget line (assuming his pastries consumption is measured on the horizontal axis and his biscuits consumption is measured on the vertical axis) is -3.5 (3.5 in absolute terms). Calculate the price of a pastry and the price of a biscuit. Write down Ravi’s budget equation and draw the corresponding budget line. Mark the consumption bundle mentioned above. In your graph, clearly label the axes, the budget line, and calculate the coordinates of the points of intersection of the budget line with each axis. Interpret each of those points. Discuss how Ravi’s budget set would change if his budget doubles. Show the relevant changes graphically. How could the price of a pastry increase so that Ravi could still afford to buy 15 pastries? Discuss how Ravi’s budget constraint would change if the government imposed a tax of £0.50 per pastry and £0.50 per biscuit.
