1) Let u(q1,q2) = ln q₁ + q2 be the (direct) utility function, where q₁ and q2the two goods. Denote
P₁ and P2 as the prices of those two goods and let M be per period money income. Derive each of
the following:
a) the ordinary or Marshallian demand functions q₁ = d₂ (P₁, P₂, M) for i = 1,2 [3 Marks]
b) the compensated or Hicksian demand functions q₁ = h₂ (P₁, P2, M) for i = 1,2 [3 Marks]
c) the Indirect Utility Function uº = v(P₁, P2, M) [3 Marks]
d) the Expenditure Function E(P1, P2, U°) [3 Marks]
e) Draw a diagram of the solution. There should be two graphs, one above the other; the
first containing the indifference curves and budget constraint that characterize the
solution to the consumer's choice problem; the second characterizing the demand…
