in a real life, consumers do not sometimes satisfy their budget constraint
Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- A rational consumer would want as much as many goods as possible to maximize utility derived from consuming them. Explain."Wants are not limitless. This can be proven. I get all the breakfast I want every morning." Explaina)Assume that the typical consumer always spends a small share of her overall budget on Vietnamese meals and use the utility maximization conditions to find the demand for Vietnamese food of the typical consumer (keep in mind that since utility is quasi-linear, you can find demand without information about the consumer’s weekly budget). b) Sum across consumers to find the weekly market demand for Vietnamese meals in NYC.
- Explain utility and its connection to consumer behaviorA consumer has a choice of spending $20,000 on a Honda or $14,000 on a Kia. She was observed buying a Kia during the weekend. Does this mean the consumer prefers the Kia to the Honda? Explain your answerExplain three assumptions about the properties of consumers’ preferences.
- How can else increase marginal utility and therefore the consumer demand curve?Compare and contrast the choice based and preference based approaches to the consumer choice behaviorA consumer facing a budget constraint will typically choose a combination of goods and services that: a) Provides the highest total utility b) Minimizes the total cost of consumption c) Equalizes marginal utility per dollar spent on each good d) Matches their preferences regardless of budget limitations
