اسلاید 4: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 4Consumer BehaviorTwo applications that illustrate the importance of the economic theory of consumer behavior are:Apple-Cinnamon CheeriosThe Food Stamp Program.

اسلاید 5: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 5Consumer BehaviorGeneral Mills had to determine how high a price to charge for Apple-Cinnamon Cheerios before it went to the market.

اسلاید 6: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 6Consumer BehaviorWhen the food stamp program was established in the early 1960s, the designers had to determine to what extent the food stamps would provide people with more food and not just simply subsidize the food they would have bought anyway.

اسلاید 7: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 7Consumer BehaviorThese two problems require an understanding of the economic theory of consumer behavior.

اسلاید 8: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 8Consumer BehaviorThere are three steps involved in the study of consumer behavior.1) We will study consumer preferences.To describe how and why people prefer one good to another.

اسلاید 9: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 9Consumer BehaviorThere are three steps involved in the study of consumer behavior.2)Then we will turn to budget constraints.People have limited incomes.

اسلاید 10: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 10Consumer BehaviorThere are three steps involved in the study of consumer behavior.3) Finally, we will combine consumer preferences and budget constraints to determine consumer choices.What combination of goods will consumers buy to maximize their satisfaction?

اسلاید 11: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 11Consumer PreferencesA market basket is a collection of one or more commodities.One market basket may be preferred over another market basket containing a different combination of goods.Market Baskets

اسلاید 17: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 17Consumer PreferencesIndifference CurvesIndifference curves slope downward to the right.If it sloped upward it would violate the assumption that more of any commodity is preferred to less.

اسلاید 18: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 18Consumer PreferencesIndifference CurvesAny market basket lying above and to the right of an indifference curve is preferred to any market basket that lies on the indifference curve.

اسلاید 19: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 19Consumer PreferencesAn indifference map is a set of indifference curves that describes a person’s preferences for all combinations of two commodities.Each indifference curve in the map shows the market baskets among which the person is indifferent.Indifference Maps

اسلاید 42: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 42Consumer PreferencesUtilityUtility: Numerical score representing the satisfaction that a consumer gets from a given market basket.

اسلاید 43: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 43Consumer PreferencesUtilityIf buying 3 copies of Microeconomics makes you happier than buying one shirt, then we say that the books give you more utility than the shirt.

اسلاید 44: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 44Consumer PreferencesUtility FunctionsAssume:The utility function for food (F) and clothing (C) U(F,C) = F + 2C Market Baskets: F units C units U(F,C) = F + 2C A 8 3 8 + 2(3) = 14 B 6 4 6 + 2(4) = 14 C 4 4 4 + 2(4) = 12 The consumer is indifferent to A & B The consumer prefers A & B to C

اسلاید 46: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 46Consumer PreferencesOrdinal Versus Cardinal UtilityOrdinal Utility Function: places market baskets in the order of most preferred to least preferred, but it does not indicate how much one market basket is preferred to another.Cardinal Utility Function: utility function describing the extent to which one market basket is preferred to another.

اسلاید 47: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 47Consumer PreferencesOrdinal Versus Cardinal RankingsThe actual unit of measurement for utility is not important.Therefore, an ordinal ranking is sufficient to explain how most individual decisions are made.

اسلاید 48: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 48Budget ConstraintsPreferences do not explain all of consumer behavior.Budget constraints also limit an individual’s ability to consume in light of the prices they must pay for various goods and services.

اسلاید 49: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 49Budget ConstraintsThe Budget LineThe budget line indicates all combinations of two commodities for which total money spent equals total income.

اسلاید 50: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 50Budget ConstraintsThe Budget LineLet F equal the amount of food purchased, and C is the amount of clothing.Price of food = Pf and price of clothing = PcThen Pf F is the amount of money spent on food, and Pc C is the amount of money spent on clothing.

اسلاید 51: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 51Budget ConstraintsThe budget line then can be written:

اسلاید 54: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 54Budget ConstraintsThe Budget LineAs consumption moves along a budget line from the intercept, the consumer spends less on one item and more on the other.The slope of the line measures the relative cost of food and clothing.The slope is the negative of the ratio of the prices of the two goods.

اسلاید 55: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 55Budget ConstraintsThe Budget LineThe slope indicates the rate at which the two goods can be substituted without changing the amount of money spent.

اسلاید 56: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 56Budget ConstraintsThe Budget LineThe vertical intercept (I/PC), illustrates the maximum amount of C that can be purchased with income I.The horizontal intercept (I/PF), illustrates the maximum amount of F that can be purchased with income I.

اسلاید 57: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 57Budget ConstraintsThe Effects of Changes in Income and PricesIncome ChangesAn increase in income causes the budget line to shift outward, parallel to the original line (holding prices constant).

اسلاید 67: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 67Consumer ChoiceConsumers choose a combination of goods that will maximize the satisfaction they can achieve, given the limited budget available to them.

اسلاید 68: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 68Consumer ChoiceThe maximizing market basket must satisfy two conditions:1) It must be located on the budget line.2) Must give the consumer the most preferred combination of goods and services.

اسلاید 69: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 69Recall, the slope of an indifference curve is:Consumer ChoiceFurther, the slope of the budget line is:

اسلاید 70: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 70Consumer ChoiceTherefore, it can be said that satisfaction is maximized where:

اسلاید 71: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 71Consumer ChoiceIt can be said that satisfaction is maximized when marginal rate of substitution (of F and C) is equal to the ratio of the prices (of F and C).

اسلاید 86: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 86Consumer ChoiceA Corner SolutionAt point B, the MRS of ice cream for frozen yogurt is greater than the slope of the budget line.This suggests that if the consumer could give up more frozen yogurt for ice cream he would do so.However, there is no more frozen yogurt to give up!

اسلاید 87: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 87Consumer ChoiceA Corner SolutionWhen a corner solution arises, the consumer’s MRS does not necessarily equal the price ratio.In this instance it can be said that:

اسلاید 88: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 88Consumer ChoiceA Corner SolutionIf the MRS is, in fact, significantly greater than the price ratio, then a small decrease in the price of frozen yogurt will not alter the consumer’s market basket.

اسلاید 99: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 99The principle of diminishing marginal utility states that as more and more of a good is consumed, consuming additional amounts will yield smaller and smaller additions to utility.Diminishing Marginal UtilityMarginal Utility and Consumer Choice

اسلاید 100: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 100Marginal Utility and the Indifference CurveIf consumption moves along an indifference curve, the additional utility derived from an increase in the consumption one good, food (F), must balance the loss of utility from the decrease in the consumption in the other good, clothing (C).Marginal Utility and Consumer Choice

اسلاید 104: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 104When consumers maximize satisfaction the:Marginal Utility and Consumer ChoiceSince the MRS is also equal to the ratio of the marginal utilities of consuming F and C, it follows that:

اسلاید 105: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 105Which gives the equation for utility maximization:Marginal Utility and Consumer Choice

اسلاید 106: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 106Total utility is maximized when the budget is allocated so that the marginal utility per dollar of expenditure is the same for each good.This is referred to as the equal marginal principle.Marginal Utility and Consumer Choice

اسلاید 107: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 107In 1974 and again in 1979, the government imposed price controls on gasoline.This resulted in shortages and gasoline was rationed.Gasoline RationingMarginal Utility and Consumer Choice

اسلاید 109: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 109Rationing hurts some by limiting the amount of gasoline they can buy.This can be seen in the following model.It applies to a woman with an annual income of $20,000.Marginal Utility and Consumer Choice

اسلاید 112: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 112Cost-of-Living IndexesThe CPI is calculated each year as the ratio of the cost of a typical bundle of consumer goods and services today in comparison to the cost during a base period.

اسلاید 113: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 113Cost-of-Living IndexesWhat Do You Think?Does the CPI accurately reflect the cost of living for retirees?Is it appropriate to use the CPI as a cost-of-living index for other government programs, for private union pensions, and for other private wage agreements?

اسلاید 114: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 114Cost-of-Living IndexesExampleTwo sisters, Rachel and Sarah, have identical preferences.Sarah began college in 1987 with a $500 discretionary budget. In 1997, Rachel started college and her parents promised her a budget that was equivalent in purchasing power.

اسلاید 115: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 115Cost-of-Living IndexesPrice of books$20/book$100/bookNumber of books156Price of food$2.00/lb.$2.20/lbPounds of food100300Expenditure$500$1,260 1987 (Sarah) 1997 (Rachel)

اسلاید 116: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 116Cost-of-Living IndexesRachel’ Expenditure for Equal Utility$1,260 = 300 lbs. of food x $2.20/lb. + 6 books x $100/bookSarah’ Expenditure$500 = 100 lbs. of food x $2.00/lb. + 15 books x $20/book

اسلاید 117: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 117Cost-of-Living IndexesThe ideal cost-of-living adjustment for Rachel is $760.The ideal cost-of-living index is $1,260/$500 = 2.52 or 252.This implies a 152% increase in the cost of living.

اسلاید 118: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 118For Rachel to achievethe same level of utility asSarah, with the higher prices, her budget must be sufficient to allow her to consume the bundle shown by point B.l2Bl1U1ACost-of-Living IndexesFood(lb./quarter)Books(per quarter)450252015105060050100200250300350400550500

اسلاید 119: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 119Cost-of-Living IndexesThe ideal cost of living index represents the cost of attaining a given level of utility at current (1997) prices relative to the cost of attaining the same utility at base (1987) prices.

اسلاید 120: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 120Cost-of-Living IndexesTo do this on an economy-wide basis would entail large amounts of information.Price indexes, like the CPI, use a fixed consumption bundle in the base period.Called a Laspeyres price index

اسلاید 121: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 121Cost-of-Living IndexesThe Laspeyres index tells us:The amount of money at current year prices that an individual requires to purchase the bundle of goods and services that was chosen in the base year divided by the cost of purchasing the same bundle at base year prices.Laspeyres Index

اسلاید 122: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 122Cost-of-Living IndexesCalculating Rachel’s Laspeyres cost of living index Setting the quantities of goods in 1997 equal to what were bought by her sister, but setting their prices at their 1997 levels result in an expenditure of $1,720 (100 x 2.20 + 15 x $100)

اسلاید 123: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 123Cost-of-Living IndexesHer cost of living adjustment would now be $1,220.The Laspeyres index is: $1,720/$500 = 344.This overstates the true cost-of-living increase.

اسلاید 124: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 124l2Using the Laspeyres index results in thebudget line shiftingup from I2 to I3.l3Bl1U1ACost-of-Living IndexesFood(lb./quarter)Books(per quarter)450252015105060050100200250300350400550500

اسلاید 125: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 125Cost-of-Living IndexesWhat Do You Think?Does the Laspeyres index always overstate the true cost-of-living index?

اسلاید 126: Chapter 3: Consumer BehaviorSlide 126Cost-of-Living IndexesYes!The Laspeyres index assumes that consumers do not alter their consumption patterns as prices change.
