You are given the above total utilities for different consumption amounts of goods A and B. The consumer has a budget of 60, the price of A is 4, and the price of B is 5.

a) Calculate all the marginal utilities and marginal utility – price ratios and display them on a table. Show all your work.
b) Prepare a separate table that shows all the possible combinations of A and B, and their respective utilities. Add one to the total utility of each combination for each unspent unit from the budget (for combinations where not all the 60 can be spent).

2

c) Which combination maximizes utility? Explain in detail, using two pieces of evidence.
d) Graph your result using a budget line and an indifference map.

-The budget line should be precise with properly scaled x- and y- axes.
- Show a few indifference curves; at least one not optimal, at least one not attainable, and the optimal one, with correct point of tangency.

Suppose another analysis of theobromine was done on the same chocolate. However, this time a different solvent was used in the extraction procedure. This analysis was performed three times obtaining an average theobromine value of 1.40 wt % with a standard deviation of 0.19. Are the standard deviations of these two data sets able to be pooled? Be sure to indicate the table value that you are using, if applicable.

At the 95% confidence level, can the means of these two methods be considered statistically close enough to be the same? Be sure to indicate the table value that you are using, if applicable.

  1. Consider the following futures contracts: (1) silver, (2) corn, (3) oil, (4) Mexican peso. Explain what kinds of individuals or firms would be interested in using these contracts as a hedging vehicle. For each contract, you should identify one party who’d be interested in hedging against an upward move in the price and one party interested in hedging against a downward move in the price.

What is the present (Year 0) value if the opportunity cost (discount) rate is 10%? Add an outflow (or cost) of $1,000 at Year 0. What is the present value of the cash flow stream?

Your oldest daughter is about to start kindergarten at a private school. Tuition is $10,000 per year payable at the beginning of the school year. You expect to keep your daughter in private school through high school. You expect tuition to increase at a rate of 5% per year over the 13 years of her schooling. What is the present value of the tuition payments if the discount rate is 6% per year?
