rick purchses two goods food and clothing
1. Rick purchases two goods, food and clothing. He has a diminishing marginal rate of substi- tution of food for clothing. Let z denote the amount of food consumed and y the amount of elothing. Suppose the price of food increases from P to P (> P). On a clearly labeled graph, illustrate the income and substitution effects of the price change on the consumption of food. Do so for each of the...

4. An individual has preferences over two goods (x and y) that are represented by function U = min{x,y}. The individual has income $60, the price of x is $4 and the price of good y is $2. (a) What kind of goods are these to the individual? (i.e. what "special case” is this?) (b) What is this individual's budget constraint? (c) What is this individual's optimal bundle of x and y? [HINT: You can't take the derivative of this...

X-EC2010-1 1. An individual consumer with Cobb-Douglas preferences over two products, x and y, maximises utility, U(X.y) = x10y10, subject to the constraint that all income, M, is spent on x and/or y. Products x and y are priced at Px and Py, respectively. (a) Set up the appropriate lagrangian for this maximisation problem, find the appropriate first-order conditions for this lagrangian and solve for x and y in terms of px, Py and M.
