Consumption Timing – Example
There are two periods and in each period I have an
income of $10,000, saving and borrowing is
possible at an interest rate of 5%
1. Consume $10,000 in both periods, consume
$10,000 in both periods
2. Save all money of the first period and
consume everything in the second period,
consume $0 in the first period and $10,000 x
1.05 + $10,000 = $20,500 in the second period
3. Consume everything now, consume $10,000 +
$10,000 /1.05 = $19,524 in the first period and
consume $0 in the second period
,Indifference Curves
The investor is indifferenct whether he obtains point A,
B or C along curve I1
All choices along I1 will be preferred to choices on I2
If you have not much to consume in period 1, extra
period 1 consumption requires larger efforts of period 2
consumption.
The steepness of the indifference curve for a given
person depends on the personal preferences – such as
risk-aversion
