John smedley, a careful maximizer of utility, consumes only two goods, peanut butter and broccoli. he had just achieved the utility-maximizing solution in his consumption of the two goods when the price of broccoli rose. assuming that this is treated as an income compensated price change (i. e., considering only the substitution effect of the price change), as he adjusts to this event: a) the marginal utility of peanut butter and of broccoli will rise. b) the marginal utility of peanut butter and of broccoli will fall. c) the marginal utility of peanut butter will fall, and the marginal utility of broccoli will rise. d) the marginal utility of peanut butter will rise, and the marginal utility of broccoli will fall.

Annuity payments are assumed to come at the end of each payment period (termed an ordinary annuity). however, an exception occurs when the annuity payments come at the beginning of each period (termed an annuity due). what is the future value of a 13-year annuity of $2,800 per period where payments come at the beginning of each period? the interest rate is 9 percent. use appendix c for an approximate answer, but calculate your final answer using the formula and financial calculator methods. to find the future value of an annuity due when using the appendix tables, add 1 to n and subtract 1 from the tabular value. for example, to find the future value of a $100 payment at the beginning of each period for five periods at 10 percent, go to appendix c for n = 6 and i = 10 percent. look up the value of 7.716 and subtract 1 from it for an answer of 6.716 or $671.60 ($100 × 6.716)
