let's take some example where what we
[18]
have is on x-axis we have good one and
[25]
on X Y axis let us say just share put
[29]
good 1 and good you not necessarily the
[33]
item 2 item 1 and item 2 let's say there
[37]
is an individual who doesn't care for
[39]
the item 2 let's for example let's say
[42]
that good 1 is milk and good 2 is Ola
[46]
and an individual doesn't like Cola he
[49]
doesn't drink his he is indifferent then
[52]
how would his indifference curve look
[54]
like he doesn't care about good - so
[58]
then it is vertical line nothing else so
[60]
what would be the marginal rate of
[61]
substitution here marginal rate of
[64]
substitution of good one with respect to
[66]
go to is infinity by the way here in
[69]
this case we call good two as neuter
[74]
neuter for this particular person what
[78]
we can have his and let's say if I
[82]
change let's say now I talk about
[89]
marginal rate of substitution that's a
[91]
good one is milk and good two is Cola
[96]
now I say milk is on x-axis y-axis and
[101]
cola is on y-axis can you draw the
[104]
indifference curve horizontal line and
[109]
what would be the marginal rate of
[111]
substitution see just be careful when we
[115]
are talking about marginal rate of
[117]
substitution of milk with respect to
[121]
Cola it would it still is infinity but
[124]
marginal rate of substitution of Cola
[127]
with respect to milk is zero so when we
[131]
do not say when we say just mrs
[133]
we are not using any particular term you
[136]
can use both way either you can say of
[138]
good one with respect respect - good -
[141]
or of good - with respect to good one
[143]
but by convention we will follow that
[146]
whenever we say mrs what we mean is mrs
[151]
of good one with respect to good is it
[161]
clear we will always use this this here
[166]
is zero and mrs here is infinity but in
[172]
both the examples america what is
[177]
affinity taxes marginal rate of
[180]
substitution would not change okay fine
[183]
so just be careful what you are talking
[185]
about this is you know a point of
[188]
confusion many people just change the
[191]
axis when they talk about it and you get
[193]
completely different result instead of
[195]
getting X you get one by x + y let's see
[200]
what do we mean by marginal rate of
[202]
substitution mathematically so let's say
[204]
this is good - and hey this is good one
[209]
what we have here is an indifference
[211]
curve of course I have taken an
[213]
indifference curve of a person who
[216]
exhibit whose preference exhibits
[219]
convexity what we are talking about is
[222]
let's say two points let's say this is 2
[226]
and this is 4 doesn't matter this is and
[232]
then what we have here is 3 and this is
[238]
3 doesn't matter and what is marginal
[246]
rate of substitution in this case minus
[249]
1 we will let's change it little bit
[252]
let's put it here three point two five
[256]
just for example because what is the
[261]
marginal rate of substitution here
[265]
Mrs by the definition that we have used
[268]
is minus 0.75 why - just wait I will
[274]
come to that why what's happening
[278]
increase in X is why we are getting
[282]
minus sign because of course when we
[284]
have convexity what we will get I think
[288]
the better explanation for this why why
[290]
do we get this what is the reason why do
[293]
we see this that you get one good you
[297]
will have to give up the other good both
[300]
what we are assuming that both these
[302]
items are good means they give certain
[306]
satisfaction or certain you know utility
[309]
to the person and what we want we want
[312]
this person to have the same level of
[314]
utility same level of satisfaction by
[319]
consuming these one of these two bundles
[321]
so of course when we are increasing the
[324]
amount of one good to bring what will
[327]
happen using if we use the monotonicity
[329]
what will happen more of one good and
[336]
theme of the other good what will happen
[340]
if more of one good what's happening let
[342]
us see from here you are moving here in
[344]
this direction here look at the screen
[346]
it will it's increasing from two it's
[349]
going to three and while the amount of
[354]
second good is four of course your
[357]
satisfaction would be higher
[358]
using monotonicity so to bring this
[361]
person back to the original satisfaction
[364]
level what you need to do is this is
[367]
Delta x1 and this is Delta x2 you will
[371]
have to decrease the amount of good to
[374]
so increase should always be accompanied
[377]
by decrease in the other code if both
[380]
are the goods okay if one is bad
[384]
remember the definition right from the
[387]
beginning if one is bad then marginal
[389]
rate of substitution would be positive
[392]
because to increase the amount of bad
[394]
you will have to compensate that person
[397]
by giving more
[399]
the other good when that case marginal
[402]
rate of substitution would be positive
[404]
but here in this case it is negative and
[407]
what is this point seven five to give up
[410]
basically what we are talking about that
[413]
to get one more unit of good one so here
[417]
we have in denominator we have good one
[419]
and changes one unit how much change do
[423]
we need in the second need good four
[425]
minus three point seven five three point
[430]
two five and of course I should put a
[433]
minus sign there okay and this is you
[438]
get 0.75 so what is this what is
[443]
marginal rate of substitution marginal
[446]
rate of substitution is nothing but the
[448]
slope of this indifference curve okay so
[455]
what would be mathematically more sound
[457]
rather than talking about one more unit
[461]
of good one we should talk about very
[464]
very small unit of good one okay and
[470]
with respect to get to get very little
[474]
amount of good one how much the other
[478]
person is willing to give up the another
[483]
good but we have to measure in terms of
[486]
per unit of good one so that's why in
[490]
that case mrs is going to be let's say
[492]
in other word let's see if we just do it
[495]
mathematically the original bundle is XY
[498]
and let's say what's happening from XY
[502]
what we are having change is x plus
[505]
delta x and y plus delta y and what
[510]
would be the slope what we are certain
[512]
about that let us say this is x y and
[519]
this is X plus Delta X from a y plus
[526]
Delta Y
[528]
what would be the slope the slope is
[531]
going to be y plus Delta Y minus y
[535]
divided by X plus Delta X minus X
[544]
although I am not using it here see what
[547]
I have done I have increased the amount
[549]
of good one and I also have increased
[551]
the amount of good 2 typically if Delta
[555]
X is positive Delta Y has to be negative
[557]
so we will get here negative value but
[561]
in some time in some books you would see
[562]
that mrs is given as a positive number
[566]
that only means that the author has
[570]
introduced a negative sign here to
[573]
convert the mrs into a positive number
[576]
okay
[578]
so it doesn't matter is it clear ok
