Question

Nigel’s Pub has a total budget of £128 per week to spend on cod and lamb. The price of cod is £16 per kilogram, and the price of lamb is £10 per kilogram.

Calculate Nigel’s budget constraint.

Answer
The budget constraint is simply that the sum of the expenditure on cod plus the expenditure on lamb be equal to his budget: 128 = 16 QC + 10 QL. Rearranging, it can also be written in intercept slope form: QC = 128/PC – (PL/PC) QL = 8 – 0.625 QL.
