a. Draw a diagram to illustrate the original budget constraint facing the company for number of business travel trips

and electronic media usage per hour.Indicate the correct values of the X-intercept and Y-intercept on the

diagram.

b. On the same diagram, illustrate the new budget constraint facing the company if the price of business travel is

reduced by 20 percent.Indicate the correct values of the X-intercept and Y-intercept on the

diagram.

c. Suppose that the company issues after the price of business travel drops indicating that its marginal rate of

substitution between electronic media and business travel is -1.Is the company allocating resources efficiently?
