3. Consider a two consumer endowment economy. Consumer 1 and consumer 2 come into the economy with an endowment of good x and good y. They can voluntarily trade their endowments. They have the following utility functions and endowments: W:(z,y) = złyt And they have the following endowments: Consumer 1 61 =(4,12) Consumer 2 ez =(8,6) (a) Set up the utility maximization problem for consumer 2. Then solve for the demand functions of good #2 and good y2 as a...

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.

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...

Suppose there are two consumers, A and B, and two goods, X and Y. Consumer A is given an initial endowment of 3 units of good X and 5 units of good Y. Consumer B is given an initial endowment of 5 units of good X and 3 units of good Y. Consumer A’s utility function is given by: UA(X,Y) = X + 4Y, and consumer B’s utility function is given by UB(X,Y) = MIN (X, 2Y). If the prices...
