2. The price of bread is strictly controlled. Loaves of bread cost $1 each at the government store. However, a consumer can purchase only 5 loaves at the government store, and any additional loaves cost $5 on the black market. The consumer has an income of $30 and purchases bread and one other good, X. The price of X is $1.

a. Draw the consumer's budget constraint. (5 points) b. Suppose the market for bread is decontrolled, and the price is $2 a loaf. Draw the new budget constraint on the same diagram. (5 points) c. On the diagram, show a consumer who prefers the new policy. (5 points)

d. On a new graph with both the old and the new budget constraints, show a consumer who is indifferent between the two policies. (5 points)

a、两段budget line,每段2、5分（纵轴为Money,横轴为Bread,无标明的扣2分）

b、新budget line斜率为-2（3分）纵轴坐标为30（1分），横轴为15（1分）

c、要画出至少两条indifferent curve,与斜率为-2的budget line相切的indifferent curve位于与原来的budget line相切的无差异曲线的上方（5分）

d、无差异曲线要与新旧两条budget line相切（凡画成打折的无差异曲线扣1分）

if Sam is to be made better-off, he must become a seller of wheat and a buyer of sunflower seeds. (10 points)

分);budget line slope:-1/5(wheat在横轴，sunflower seeds在纵轴)（4分）；标出utility maximization point(300,80)（3分） 在(300,80)处画出与budget line相切的无差异曲线（1分）无差异曲线画得不好的扣1分

b、（wheat在横轴，sunflower seeds在纵轴）指出或在图上标出价格变化后，预算线绕禀赋点顺时针旋转一个角度，新预算线斜率为-1（4分），无标明斜率为-1的扣3分；画出经过原来的最优消费决策点并且与新预算线相交的无差异曲线（相交即新预算线上有一段位于经过原来的最优消费决策点的无差异曲线的上方）（3分）；画出与新预算线相切的无差异曲线（1分），且位于经过原来最优消费决策点的无差异曲线的上方）（2分）；新的最优消费决策点要位于禀赋点的左上方

4. Assume individuals are choosing between housing services (H) measured in square feet and consumption of all other goods (C) in dollars.

Show also her original choice and the new choice. (5 points)

b. Show in the same diagram the minimum amount of income supplement the government would have to give the consumer instead of the housing subsidy to make them as well off as she was in Part a. (10 points)

a、首先在图上指出budget line的绝对值会变为原来的1/2（3分）；标出original choice (1分)new choice (1分)
