预算集及其代数形式

预算线 p1x1 + p2x2 = m 是可行集的边界,其斜率是市场的交换比率,而价格和收入的变化会以可识别的方式移动这条线,政策很快就会加以利用。

1. The constraint written down

2. Pivots and shifts

Pivots and shifts

3. Taxes, subsidies and numeraires

Taxes, subsidies and numeraires

4. Kinks from real tariffs

Kinks from real tariffs

5. Reading the slope

With income 100, prices p1=2p_1 = 2 and p2=5p_2 = 5, what does the budget line's slope of −25-\frac{2}{5} tell you?

6. Pivot versus shift

A lump-sum income tax is levied. How does the budget line move, and how does that differ from a per-unit tax on good one?

7. The doubling irrelevance

If both prices and income double, what happens to the budget set?

8. At the kink

In the two-tier electricity budget, flat at slope −23-\frac{2}{3} up to 15 units then slope −43-\frac{4}{3}, why might a consumer locate exactly at the kink?

9. The intercept after a price rise

With m=100m = 100, p2=5p_2 = 5, and p1p_1 rising from 2 to 4, compute the new horizontal intercept of the budget line, and write the number.

10. Where the steep tier ends

In the two-tier budget with m=60m = 60, p2=3p_2 = 3, first 15 units at p1=2p_1 = 2 then p1=4p_1 = 4, compute the horizontal intercept of the steep segment, and write the number.

11. Intercepts as physical limits

With income 100 and prices 2 and 5, what are the two axis intercepts of the budget line?

12. The lump-sum versus the per-unit

How do a lump-sum income tax and a per-unit tax on good one move the budget line differently?

13. The numeraire's freedom

If good two is declared the numeraire with p2 set to one, what changes and what does not?

14. The kink's arithmetic

In the two-tier budget with m of 60, p2 of 3, first 15 units of good one at 2 then 4, what is the kink bundle?

15. The steep tier's reach

After the cheap tier of 15 units, compute how many more units of good one the remaining 30 dollars buy at price 4, and write the number with one decimal.

16. Spending half on each

With m of 100, p1 of 2 and p2 of 5, compute the cost of the bundle (25, 10), and write the number.
