Suppose Serbest Mermer gets utility from guns and roses: U(G,R)=rVG+µVR where G is gun and R is roses, y and µ are some constant parameters. The price of gun is T >0 ; and the price of rose is p>0. Set up expenditure minimizaton problem and obtain the optimal expenditure function Is the expenditure function increasing with respect to prices?
