Steve Slacker is age 25, has an MBA degree, but is not working. Instead he is living at a major ski area, using the $2,000 per week he gets from his wealthy family. The family, however, seeing that Steve is becoming a permanent slacker, ends this weekly payment. As a result, Steve chooses to take a job that pays $1,000 a week for 40 hours of work. Construct a single income-leisure choice graph to show Steve's situation before and after his parents' decision. Briefly summarize the outcome for hours of work, total weekly income, and Steve's total utility.
