Consider a utility maximizing consumer who generates utility according to the following utility function: U=In(k)+s where k is the quantity of masks consumed and s is the quantity of hand sanitizer consumed. Let the price of k, the price of s, and income be noted as Pk Ps, and M, respectively. * Set up the utility maximizing Lagrangian and derive the Marshallian demand functions. What is the quantity demand of k and s if income = $120 pk = $2 and ps = $12? Derive the indirect utility function and the expenditure function. Use Shephard's Lemma to derive the compensated (Hicksian) demand curves.
