a)His household problem is :
1)Max U(ca,la ) s.t.
(2) p(c ) + wL h + rA h<=F(L, A) + w(L m 1 + L m 2 ) + rA m
(3) L = L f 1 +L f 2 + L h
(4) A = A f + A h
(5) E A ' A f + A m
(6)E L i = L f i + L m i + l i , i0{1,2}
(7) ci , l i , L f i , L m i , A f , A m $ 0, i0{1,2}
(B)The firm's problem is
Equation (1) is a household utility function
Equation (2) is a conventional budget constraint: cash expenditures on consumption, hired labor and rented land cannot exceed cash revenues from farming, market labor, and land rented out.
Equations (3) through (5) define resource constraints: labor use on the farm is household labor used on the farm plus hired labor; land use on the farm is owned land used on the farm plus hired land; the household's land endowment is used on its own farm or rented out, and each individual's time endowment equals their labor use on the farm, plus market labor time, plus leisure time. Substituting equations (3)-(5) into (2) we find:
(7) p(c1 + c2 ) + w(l1 +l 2 ) <= A % w(EL1 + EL2 ) + rE A
(8) A ' F(L,A) & wL & rA
(9) ci , l i , L, A >= 0, i{1,2}
Equation (7) is called the “full income” constraint - the value of consumption cannot exceed the value of the household's endowment plus farm profits. The household's problem is now to maximize (1) (now with respect to L, A, c and l) subject to (7) - (9)
