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-...
Two individuals, a and b, consume goods x and y. Their endowments are w(2,5) and wb (10,1). Both have identical Cobb-Douglas utility functions ui(x,y') xy where i malized to 1; for simplicity we write px as just p. Then consumer i's demand for each good is i 1 2 i m and I 2 where m refers to the value of consumer i's endowment. (a) Draw the set of interior Pareto efficient allocations in an Edge- worth box for this...
