3. Consider the following model. U(X,Y)= X2$Y35 Px =2 Py = 3 I= 100 Suppose price of X changes to Px= 4. What are the substitution effect and income effect on Y?
An individual consumes two goods, X and Y, and receives utility according to a Cobb-Douglas production function of the form: U(X,Y)= X1/3Y2/3. Give that MUX= 13(MUYMUX)2/3 and MUY= 23(MUXMUY)1/3 find the consumers optimal demand functions for X and Y in terms of PX, PY, and I. Explain why I could have solved the problem above using the utility function U(X,Y)= XY2 and would have obtained the same answer. What is it about utility that makes this possible?     Economists define the ‘certainty equivalent’ of a risky stream of income as the amount of guaranteed money an individual would accept instead of taking a risk. The certainty equivalent varies between individuals based on their risk preference.
Economics Consider a household whose preferences are described by the utility function U(X1, X2) = X1X2 where X1 and X2 are household’s consumption of goods 1 and 2 respectively. Consider that household’s budget constraint is: P1X1 +P2X2 =I. (a) Derive the household’s demand functions for goods X1 and X2. (b) Derive the household’s compensated demand function for goods 1 and 2, i.e., obtain functions of the form Xi = fi (P1, P2, U) , I = 1, 2 where U is the household’s level of utility. (c) Assume that in the initial situation the commodity prices, P1 and P2, and the household income level, I, are given by P1 = $1, P2 = $1 and I = $2. Sketch the compensated and uncompensated demand curves for good 2 with P1 held constant at the initial level. In the compensated case, U is held constant at the initial level while in the uncompensated case, I is held constant. (d) By how much must I be increased if P2 increases to $2 (P1 remains at $1) and our household is to maintain its…

The marginal rate of substitution of Good X for Good Y is MRSXY(x,y)= 9y/x. The price of Good X is PX, the price of Y is PY, and Jane’s income is I. Notice that diminishing MRS is satisfied and preference is smooth. What is the function of the consumer’s demand curve of Good X if income I=100 and price of Good Y is PY=0.2?

Bunde's preferences are given by the utility function u(x1, x2) = x, + x2. For each of the following cases, decompose the price effects into the substitution and income effects using the Hicks-Allen decompositions. (For each part, use the given template to draw the constraints, and then use your completed graph to fill in the description. Enter any points in order from left to right as they would appear on the graph.) 20 15 10 5 10 15 20 (a) Suppose m = 120, P1 = 10, and p2 = 15. The price p1 then falls to 6, keeping p2 and m fixed. Given m = 120 and p, = 15, the budget B° is drawn for p, = 10. The utility-maximizing point on this budget is at A = given the linear preferences yielding utility y° = When p, falls to 6, the new budget is B" and the utility-maximizing point is C = ), yielding utility un = . The movement from A to C is the price effect of units of good 1. Removing income incrementally until Bunde can barely afford the old utility of at the new prices yields the line which…
