Michаel hаs $600 per week thаt he can spend оn music dоwnlоads (m), priced at $1 per music download, and concert tickets (c), priced at $5 each ticket. His utility function is given by U = m2+2c2, where MUm=2m and MUc=10c. Q1. Write an equation for MRSmc. Q2. Would bundles of (m=4 and c=1) and (m=2 and c=2) be on the same indifference curve? How do you identify your answer? Q3. Write an equation for Michael's budget constraint (e.g., Income = Pmm + Pcc) Q4.
