Answer:
b. The slope of the budget constraint is the same for each woman.
Explanation:
Budget Line is the combination of two goods that a consumer can buy, given prices & money income (all spent).
Equation : p1x1 + p2x2 = m ;
where p1 & p2 are price of good 1 & 2 , x1 & x2 are quantities of good 1 & good 2 , m = money income
- Abby's Budget Line : 5I + 8N = 80
- Bobbi's Budget Line : 5I + 8N = 60
- Deborah's Budget Line : 5I + 8N = 40 [ I = Icecream, N = Novel ]
Slope of Budget Line represents change (sacrifise) of a good needed to get change (gain) of other good, given same prices & income.
Slope = ΔY/ΔX = Px / Py
Since prices are same for each woman, price ratios & hence the slope of budget line will also be same for all of them.
Answer:
Explanation:
The consumer credit protection act was inacted to protect employee from discharge by the employer in case there wage has been garnished in any one debt. However the provision has provided for some limit till which the garnishment can be done. The provision applies to all who receive earning for their personal services. The provision says the credit would be lesser of 25% of disposable income or by the amount which is greater than 30 times of minimum hourly wages (i.e $7.25).
Here in this case Geraldine Wolfe was paid biweekly and 80% was his disposable income. So the calculation would be as follow with 52 weeks in a year.
Disposable income = ($45000/52)*2*80%=$1385 (round off to nearest dollar)
25% of disposable income= $346.25 ($1385*25%)
With minimum wage of $7.25= $7.25*60 (biweekly)=$435
so the amount which is greater than the minimum hourly wage is =$1385-$435=$950
Conclusion:- So the maximum wage garnishment can be lesser of $ 346.25 or $950. Hence it will be $346.25 which is the maximum garnishment allowed for Geraldine's consumer credit garnishment.
