Assume that you have a budget of $25 to spend on milk and cereal only. The price of milk is
PM =$5 and the price of cereal is PC =$4. Answer the following quesitons.
1-Graph the budget constraint. Be sure to put the quantity of milk (QM ) on the horizontal axis.
2-What is the most you can purchase of cereal?
3-If you purchase 5 units of cereal (QC = 5), then how many units of milk can you purchase at most?
4-What is the slope of the budget constraint? (Note: it is important that you answer Question 2.1 correctly and put QM on the horizontal axis.)
5-What is the opportunity cost of three units of cereal?
