Vetox sells industrial chemicals. One of their inputs can be purchased in either jugs or barrels. A jug contains one gallon, while a barrel contains 55 gallons. The price per gallon is the same with either container. Vetox is charged a fixed amount per order whether it purchases jugs or barrels. The inventory holding cost per gallon per month is the same with either jugs or barrels. Vetox chooses an order quantity to minimize ordering and holding costs per year. Would Vetox purchase a greater number of gallons with each order if it purchased with jugs or with barrels? A. They would order a greater number of gallons with barrels.
B. They would order the same number of gallons with either container.
C. They would order a greater number of gallons with jugs.
D. They might order a greater number of gallons with jugs or with barrels, depending on various factors like the demand rate, ordering cost, and holding cost.

David consumes two things: gasoline (g) and bread (b). david's utility function is u(g, b) = 10g^0.25 b^0.75. use the lagrange technique to solve for david's optimal choices of gasoline and bread as a function of the price of gasoline, p_g, the price of bread, p_b, and his income m. with recent decrease in the price of gasoline (maybe due to external shock such as shale gas production) does david increase his consumption of gasoline? for david, how does partial differential g/partial differential p_g depend on his income m? that is, how does david's change in gasoline consumption due to an increase in the price of gasoline depend on his income level? to answer these questions, find the cross-partial derivative, |partial differential^2 g/partial differential m partial differential p_g.
