1) Alexandra Kollontai --a hypothetical person with extraordinary sensibilities--views one graphic novel to be a perfect substitute for two comic books. If a graphic novel costs $30, a comic book costs $10, and Alexandra allocates Y = $60 per year for graphic novels and comic books, what bundle does she buy? If the price of graphic novels falls to $20, how will Alexandra’s behavior change? Show the utility-maximizing bundles on diagrams with bud- get line and indifference curves (with comic books on the horizontal axis)
2) Suppose that you are asked to conduct a study to understand the behavior of students in college who are performing to some minimum acceptable standard. In this context, is util- ity maximizing behavior a good assumption? What would this assumption imply in the context of school performance? Can you think of another/good assumption that you can use to understand school performance behavior? Explain --If you cannot think of another assumption to be used to conduct such a study, explain why you cannot do so.
