learn-eu-central-1-prod-fleet01-xythos.content.blackboardcdn.com Imagine there is an outbreak of 'mad sheep' disease, which wipes out a considerable portion of the sheep population in Scotland. This results in a shortage of Haggis and an increase in its price. a) Show the effect of this price increase on Angus' budget line and optimal choice, and explain the forces underpinning this outcome. (Hint: Consider substitution and income effects). b) Assuming that Haggis' price continues to increase over the subsequent months, derive the demand curve for Haggis. c) Discuss the income and substitution effects within the context of this price increase assuming that Haggis is an inferior good. 2 26% 1
Define the term rational consumer in economics. Use appropriate examples.
The horizontally oriented definition of DEMAND states that "demand is the quantitites of a good that buyers are willing and able to buy at various prices in a given time interval." Which of the following statements are TRUE? If I really like a good, it does not matter how much I am able to afford to spend on it. The demand for a good is a specific amount. Demand is a behavioral relationship expressing what quantities buyers would want and be able to buy at various prices. If I can't afford to buy a product at today's available prices, I do not have a demand. The demand is all the possible price quantity combinations Demand depends on the availability of supply. Demand is a relationship between price as a variable and quantity demanded as a variable. Demand is a flow and requires a time interval be be fully understood.
Set up a utlitiy maximization problem given the following information.
Consumer theory is built based on the concept of indifference curves, budget constraint lines, and optimization. By elaborating on these concepts explain how consumers typically make their consumption decisions. Also explain how changes in prices and income can affect the optimal consumption bundle.
What are some key points about the utility-maximization model
How does the utility-maximization model help highlight the income and substitution effects of a price change. Provide an example please.

A utility function is given by the equation U = 20xe¬0.1x, where x is the number of glasses of wine consumed. (a) Show that this utility function has a maximum value and calculate the maximum utility. (b) Describe how marginal utility changes for glasses of wine consumed after the maximum utility is reached. Do you consider this reasonable? Give an explanation.
