Draw the budget constraint showing the trade-off between lifetime consumption and number of children.(Ignore the fact that children only come in whole numbers.) Show indifference curves and an optimum choice. b. Suppose the wage increases to $12 per hour. Show how the budget constraint shifts. Using income and substitution effects, discuss the impact of the change on number of children and lifetime consumption.
