3. A consumer's utility function is: u x025y0.7s where x and y are two goods () Suppose total income is £10,000 and the prices of the two goods are £4 and £6 respectively. Use constrained optimisation to find the consumer's demand for both goods. Now replace the price of the second good with p. Find a formula for the consumer's demand for this good. Draw the demand curve and comment on its properties (ii) (ii) What is the own-price elasticity...

(8 points) Consider the following two market model Market 1: Q = 20 - P1+2Pz; Qi = 2P1 - 27 Market 2: Q9 = 18 – 2P, +3P; Q:= 2 + 4P, lave where Q' is the demand for good i and Q! is it's supply. Prepresents the price for good i. As you can see the the demand for a good is affected by not only its own price but also by the price of the other good. (a)...
Suppose Q D = 200 – 4P and Q S = 100 describe market demand and market supply in a given market. Find the equilibrium price and quantity for this market. Graph both supply and demand for this market. Compute the consumer and producer surplus for this market. Give an example of a good in the real world that might be described by this graph
Consumer's Surplus A consumer has the utility function U(, y)v) where is the good in concern ail y is the money that can be spent on all other goods (so the price of y is normalized to be 1). The income of - this consumer is 100. Bi Pr X10 (In(x)y) (10%) Derive the demand function of z for this consumer. (10%) Calculate the price elasticity of the demand function in (b) Is it true that the absolute value of...
5. (22 pts) Consider the three-commodity market model given by: Qi = 16 – 2p1 + 2p2 + P3 and Qi = 2p1 – 7 Q2 = 8+2p1 – P2 – P3 and Q2 = 4p2 – 4 Q% = 4+421 – P2 – 4p3 and Qs = 2p3 – 3 where Q4, Q and pi denote quantity demanded, quantity supplied and price of good i = 1, 2, 3, respectively. (a) What is the relationship among the three goods?...
The utility function is u = x1½ + x2, and the budget constraint is m = p1x1 + p2x2. Derive the optimal demand curve for good 1, x1(p1, p2), and good 2, x2(m, p1, p2). Looking at the cross price effects (∂x1/∂p2 and ∂x2/∂p1) are goods x1 and x2 substitutes or complements? Looking at income effects (∂x1/∂m and ∂x2/∂m) are goods x1 and x2 inferior, normal or neither? Assume m=100, p1=0.5 and p2=1. Using the demand function you derived in...
Consumer's surplus: A consumer has the utility function U(x,y) =e^((ln(X)+Y)^1/3) where X is the good in concern and Y is the money that can be spent on all other goods. (So the price of Y is normalized to be 1). The income of this consumer is 100. (a) (10pts) Derive the demand function of x for this consumer. Make sure that at every price of x, the consumer always has enough income to buy the amount of x as indicated...
