Problem 1: Closed CityAssumptions of the model:The city is a circle with a radius that extends from the point 0 to the bound- ary of the city x ̄. There is a fixed population N, which we for now consider exogenous or fixed. All workers receive and income y and face a commuting cost t per mile that they drive. Workers have preferences over a compos- ite consumption good c with their utility function given by U(c) = c. All households demand a fixed quantity of land q, which is exogenously deter- mined and carries the rent r(x) per unit of land at location x. The rent at the boundary of the city is equivalent to the agricultural rent ra, that is r(x ̄) = ra All rental income is assumed to paid to absentee landlords who live outside the city. The household budget constraint is then given by y − tx = ri(x)q + c a) Make a list of your exogenous and endogenous variables. b) Solve for the urban bid-rent function.c) Solve for the remaining endogenous variables
Question4-5
Two individuals (A and B) live on an island where they consume coconuts (good x) and bananas (good y) for survival. A owns the coconut producing part of the island and B owns the banana part. Their utility functions and endowments are given by UA (TA,YA) = A+YA +min {A, YA}, UB (TB, YB) = TB +YB + min {ïß, YB}, (ww) = (0, 12) B B Assume that the price of coconuts is p and that of bananas is 1, so relative prices are denoted by p. (ww) = (10,0) A 1. What are their respective budget constraints? 2. What are their individual demand functions? (Hint: you have to consider multiple cases for the value of p) 3. The individuals trade their endowments with each other. What is the competitive equilibrium price in the market? What are their respective utilities at equilibrium?
Consider a one period model in which a representative agent maximises the utility function: u(c,l) = lnc + 5lnl subject to the budget constraints: c = (1-t)w(1-l) + v where c is consumption and l is the amount of leisure, they enjoy out of a total of one unit of time available, t is the tax on wage earnings which pays for v in government transfer payments. A. Solve for first order conditions of the representative agent. B. Write down the market clearing condition (resource constraint) for the aggregate economy. C. Solve for equilibrium consumption and labour choices.

Consider an economy where all production and all consumption is carried out by a single agent, Robinson Crusoe. Robinson, as a consumer, is endowed with H hours of time. His utility depends in hours of leisure, h, and coconuts, y: u(h, y) = (h)1−βyβ with 0 ≤ h ≤ H,β ∈ (0,1). Robinson, as a firm, can transform hours of labor, z, into coconuts y. His technology of production is given by y = f(z) = zα with α ∈ (0, 1). Let p denote the price of coconuts, w denote the price of leisure/labor, and π denote the firm’s profits. Note that the budget constraint of Robinson is py ≤ w(H − h) + π. Note that the budget constraint of Robinson is px ≤ w(H − h) + π, and that in equilibrium in the market of coconuts x = y and in the labor market h + z = H. Find the equilibrium allocation and price vector in equilibrium.
A decision maker allocates an endowment of W > 0 dollars across two periodst = 1, 2. He discounts the future by β ∈ (0, 1) while facing a gross interest rateof R > 1. His utility is the same as studied in class. Solve for the intertemporalchoice problem. Show that the optimal consumption is decreasing over time ifβR < 1, constant over time if βR = 1, and increasing over time if βR > 1.

Suppose you work for a robo-advisory firm and are interested in modeling your clients' consumption and saving decisions using a simple, two-period model. For all parts of this problem, assume your clients' utility functions satisfy the assumptions we discussed in class (i.e., utility is increasing and concave). Consider the case of a representative client. This client's current income is $100 and their current real wealth is zero. They have signed a contract for next year, promising them future income equal to $120. Suppose the real interest rate is 5% per year, and the client faces no borrowing constraints. a) What is the client's inter-temporal budget constraint? First, derive the budget constraint math- ematically. Then, illustrate the constraint graphically, indicating the x- and y-intercepts, the no borrowing/no saving point, and the slope of the constraint. b) Suppose in the baseline scenario described in the problem, the client's preferences are such that they are a saver.
