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)...

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...
