Suppose you won $15 on a lotto ticket at the local 7-eleven and decided to spend all the winnings on candy bars and bags of peanuts. Candy bars cost $0.75 each while bags of peanuts cost $1.50 each.
A. Construct a table showing the alternative combinations of the two products that are available.
B. Plot the data in your table as a budget line? What is the opportunity cost of one more candy bar? Of one more bag of peanuts? Do these opportunity costs, rise, fall or remain constant as additional units are purchased?
C. Does the budget line tell you which of the available combinations of candy bars and bags of peanuts to buy?
D. Suppose that you had won $30 on your ticket, not $15. Show the $30 budget line in your diagram. Has the number of available combinations increased or decreased?
