Can anyone help me with this one? Two agents have identical quasilinear preferences U(x, y)-u(x) +y,...
Need help with Edgeworth Box exercise Two agents have identical quasilinear preferences U(x, y)-u(x) +y, where u(x) =|x-1 + 1 , x > 1 Agent I's endowment is (3/2, 1/2) and agent 2's endowment is (1/2, 3/2). Normalize so that the price of good 2 is 1. There is a Walrasian Equilibrium at which the price of good 1 is greater than 1/2. Draw an Edgeworth Box for this economy. Draw and label the following elements: (I) The Walrasian Equilibrium...
Two agents have identical quasilinear preferences U(x, y)-u(x) + y, where , x , x E [0,1] Agent 1's endowment is (3/2, 1/2) and agent 2's endowment is (1/2, 3/2). Normalize so that the price of good 2 is A) Calculate a Walrasian equilibrium at which the price of good 1 is greater than 1/2. Are there other Walrasian equilibria? B) Suppose agent 1's endowment were (2, 1/2). Find a Walrasian equilibrium for this economy. Note that agent is actually...
I need help solving this exercise from a course called Advanced Microeconomics in MSc in Economics. Thank you in advance Exercise 4 (General Equilibrium). Two agents have identical quasilinear preferences U(x,y) -u(x) +y, where u(x) Agent 1's endowment is (3/2, 1/2) and agent 2's endowment is (1/2,3/2). Normalize so that the price of good 2 is 1. 1. Calculate a Walrasian equilibrium at which the price of good 1 is greater than 1/2. Are there other Walrasian equilibria? 2. Draw...
Consider an exchange economy with two goods and two agents. Agent A likes to consume more of either good, but when she consumes a bundle, she dislikes mixing her consumption of both goods. Therefore she only cares for the maximal amount of either good contained in a bundle. Her preferences are represented by ui(xA1 , xA2 ) = max{xA1 , xA2 }. Agent B has preferences represented by ui(xB1 , xB2 ) = (xB1 )^2 + (xB2 )^2. Both agents...
Description of the economy: For each of the following problems, consider a 2x2 Exchange Economy with two consumers A and B, and two goods X and Y . The preferences of consumer A can be represented by the utility function uA(xA, yA) = xAyA , where xA is the amount of good A consumed by consumer A, and yA is the amount of good Y consumed by consumer A. The preferences of consumer B can be represented by the utility...
Problem 7. This question is adapted from our textbook. The table below describes a two-person, two-commodity economy. The utility functions, endowments and demand functions for Anne and Bill are provided. For simplicity, we normalize the price of good 2 to $1 and denote the price of good 1 as p. In the table, mr' refers to the value ofi's endowment, i.e. m,-p xiM +4% where i - A, B is the index used to denote Anne and Bill, respectively. i-...

Pure Exchange Model 1. Consider a Pure Exchange Economy with two agents A and B and two goods X and Y in which each agent acts competitively. Their preferences are given by the following utility function U(X,Y)=X13*Y23 Their initial endowments are as follows W=(5,20) w- (25,10) a) Calculate the demand functions for Good X and Good Y for each agent. b) State the equilibrium conditions for this economy. c) Using these conditions and the demand functions found in part a)...
1. Consider the following exchange economy. There are two goods (1 and 2) and two consumers (A and B). Preferences and endowments are as follows: uA (イ·攻)-玲攻 TA _ (0,2) 2(4,0) (a) Draw an Edgeworth Box diagram to depict this economy. Your diagram should be clearly labelled, and should include the autar kic allocation as well as a couple of indifference curves for each consumer. (Indifference curves for A do not need to be precisely accurate but those for B...
Edgeworth box with quasi linearity There are two economic agents, A and B. Utility functions are the following u4(xA, yA) A +YA and uB(xB,yB):= 2\/xB+YB- (a) The endowment for the economy is (ī,g) = (10,20). Find the set of all Pareto efficient allocation such that TA > 0, xg > 0, YA > 0, yB > 0 0 (i.e. y; E (-0, 00) for i E {A, B}). The endowment for the (b) Assume A 20 and TB economy is...
