What is shown by the indifference map for two goods? Which indifference curve would a consumer want to be on?

Please provide the best answer for the statement.


An indifference map shows the set of indifference curves for the consumer. Each curve is convex to the origin and does not cross the other. Each indifference curve shows a level of utility. The farther an indifference curve is away from the origin, the higher the level of utility. The consumer will want to be on the indifference curve that is the one farthest from the origin.

Congratulations!You have just won a $1,000,000 (delayed) prize in the lottery. Your state offers you the following alternatives:you can take $750,000 now, or 10 years from now you can receive the full $1,000,000

The delay isn't a problem, because you weren't planning to use any of the prize money for at least 10 years. If you take the lump sum now, you figure you can invest it at an annually compounded rate of 3 percent. Should you take the $750,000 now, or wait to get the full $1,000,000 in 10 years?Why or why not?Show any calculations.
