a) Write the budget constraint of period one and the budget constraint of period two and the inter-temporal budget constraint (10 marks)

b) Graph the household budget line and show its equilibrium point. (10 marks)

c) Discuss and show graphically the income and substitution effect and what the equilibrium could be if the interest rate decreases.
