An individual has an endowment of $100 today and expects no income in the future. They can lend money at an interest rate of 10%. Suppose this individual unexpectedly receives a gift of $20 that will be available only in the future period. How does this gift affect their feasible frontier, where consumption today is on the horizontal axis and consumption in the future is on the vertical axis?

An individual has an endowment of $100 today and expects no income in the future. If this individual can lend money at an interest rate of 10%, what is the maximum amount they could consume in the future period?
Calculating a Point on the Feasible Frontier
An individual has an endowment of $100 today and expects no income in the future. If the interest rate at which they can lend money increases, their feasible set of consumption choices for today and the future will expand.

Interpreting the Slope of the Feasible Frontier
An individual has an endowment of $100 today and expects no income in the future. They have the opportunity to lend their money at an interest rate of 20%. Which of the following combinations of consumption today and consumption in the future is not possible for this individual?
Deriving Economic Conditions from a Feasible Frontier
An individual has an endowment of $100 today and expects no income in the future. They can lend money at an interest rate of 10%. Match each graphical feature or point with its correct economic description, where the horizontal axis represents consumption today and the vertical axis represents consumption in the future.

An individual is endowed with $100 for consumption today and expects no income in the future. They have the opportunity to lend any amount of their current endowment at a positive interest rate. To graphically represent their set of possible consumption choices, with 'consumption today' on the horizontal axis and 'consumption in the future' on the vertical axis, what is the correct sequence of logical steps?
An individual has an endowment of $100 today and expects no income in the future. If the interest rate at which they can lend money increases, their feasible set of consumption choices for today and the future will expand.
