what is satiation point? And how it is helpful in deriving indifference curve?
Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- We claimed in the text that if preferences were monotonic, then a diagonal line through the origin would intersect each indifference curve exactlyonce. Can you prove this rigorously? (Hint: what would happen if itintersected some indifference curve twice?)Using a graph, draw a set of indifference curves that are not locally non- satiated. Explain in detail why local non-satiation is violated.What are the 4 basic assumption of individual preferences?
- Briefly discuss four disadvantages of using Cost-benefit analysis to measure utility.What assumptions are necessary for supposing that individual preferences can be inferred and valued from the choices that individuals make?give a reasonHow does the utility-maximization model help highlight the income and substitution effects of a price change. Provide an example please.
