The question below is on the theory of consumer behaviour. Under the demand functions on the Hicksian and Marshallian, and the indirect deman functions
Consider the following utility function over goods 1 and 2, plnx1 +3lnx2: (a) [15 points] Derive the Marshallian demand functions and the indirect utility function. (b) [15 points] Using the indirect utility function that you obtained in part (a), derive the expenditure function from it and then derive the Hicksian demand function for good 1. (c) [10 points] Using the functions you have derived in the above, show that i. the indirect utility function is homogeneous of degree zero in...

A consumer has income M, and faces prices (for goods 1 and 2) p1 and p2. For each of the following utility functions, graphically show the following: (i) the Slutsky substitution and income eโects when p1 decreases. (ii) the Hicks substitution and income eโects when p1 decreases. (iii) the Marshallian and Hicksian demand curves for good 1: (a) perfect complements: U(x1 , x2) = min {4x1, 5x2} (b) quasi-linear: U(x1 , x2) = x^2/3 1 + x2
