Julia's Maximum Present Consumption at a 78% Interest Rate (56, 0)
When the interest rate is 78%, Julia's maximum possible present consumption is $56. This is because if she borrows $56, the interest owed would be $44, and the total repayment of $100 ($56 principal + $44 interest) would exhaust her entire future income. This choice is represented by the point (56, 0) on her feasible frontier, leaving no funds for future consumption.

An individual has no income today but is guaranteed to have an income of $120 one year from now. They can borrow against this future income at an interest rate of 50%. Which of the following consumption plans, represented as (present consumption, future consumption), is not achievable for this individual?
Calculating Maximum Present Consumption
Impact of Interest Rates on Present Consumption
An individual has no income today but expects to receive $180 next year. If the interest rate for borrowing is 80%, this individual can consume exactly $100 today while having $0 available for consumption next year.
Calculating Implied Interest Rate
An individual has no income today but is guaranteed to receive an income of $200 in the next period. Match each potential interest rate for borrowing with the corresponding maximum amount of money they could consume today, assuming they will have $0 left for future consumption.
The Trade-off Between Present and Future Consumption
An individual, who has no income today but is guaranteed to receive $100 in one year, decides to borrow money for consumption today at an interest rate of 78%. If they choose to consume the maximum possible amount today, how will their $100 of future income be allocated to repay the loan?
