1.a) Consider an agent who will live for two periods with utility function U(x1, x2) = x1 * x * . The agent receives incomes 11 and 12 in periods 1 and 2 respectively. If the market interest rate is r = 10% and 14 = $10 and 12 = $10, solve for the agent's optimal consumption in each period. Graph the budget constraint and some indifference curves.

An individual has the utility function: U(x1,x2,x3) = ln x1 + ln x2 + 0.5ln x3. The price of good x1 is p1, the price of good x2 is p2 = 1 and the price of good x3 is p3. The individual’s income is I. Derive the Marshallian demand functions (x1* , x2*, x3* ).
Consider the utility function: u(x1,x2) = x1 +x2.
1. Consider the utility function: u(x1,x2) = x1 +x2. Find the corresponding Hicksian demand function 2. For each of the three utility functions below, find the substitution effect, the income effect, and the total effect that result when prices change from p = (2,1) to p' = (2,4). Assume the consumer has income I = 20. (a) Before doing any calculation, make an educated guess about the relative magnitude of the three substitution effects and the three income effects to be found below. (b)...

1. Consider a utility function u(x1, x2) = x1 + (x2)^a where a > 0. (a) Show that if a < 1, then preferences are convex. (b) Show that if a = 1, then preferences have perfect substitutes form. (c) Show that if a > 1, then preferences are concave. (d) For each case, explain how you would solve for the optimal bundle.
The consumer has the utility function U(x1 , x2) = (x1-2)4 (x2-3)3
The consumer has the utility function U(x1 , x2) = (x1-2)4 (x2-3)3, subject to her budget constraint 10 = 4x1 + 3x2. Write the utility maximization of this consumer using the Lagrangian method and find the optimal value of x1 and x2.

The individual has a utility function of u(x1, x2) = min (4x1, 5x2) and faces prices p1=2 and p2=1. We know they consume 20 units of x2 and spend all their income. What is the demand function for x1?

13. Consider an individual with a utility function U = min{3x,, x} where x1 and x2 are the quantities of goods 1 and 2 consumed, respectively. If the prices of good 1 is $5 and the price of good 2 is $5 and the consumer's income is $60, how much of goods 1 and 2 does she buy? a. x, = 4, x, = 4 b. x, = 6,X, = 3 c. x, = 8, x, = 2 d. x,...

6. Consider a consumer with the utility function u(x1,x2) = In(x) x2 and the budget constraint px + p2x2 = m. Derive the consumer's demand functions for x1 and x2. (25 marks)
3) Consider an individual who will live for 3 periods with utility function U(X1, X2, x3) and periodic incomes 11,12,13. Assuming that the market interest rate per period is r, express the agent's utility maximization problem, but do not solve.
