Suppose there are only two goods - Food (F) and Shelter (S). The demand equations for these two goods depend on their prices, pF and pS as follows:
DF (pF, pS) = 10-2pF-pS
DS (pF,pS) = 10-pF-2pS
The supply curves depend only on their own prices:
SF (pF) = pF
SS (pS) = 5pS
Determine the equilibrium price and quantity of these goods. Show ALL work

Consider a simple economy with two goods, shelter and food, and two consumers Brian and Davina. Brian is endowed with 200 units of shelter and 200 units of food. Davina is endowed with 100 units of shelter and 300 units of food. Suppose that Brian’s optimal demand for shelter is S = 100. Davina’s optimal demand for shelter is S = 50 + 150PF / PS where PS is the price of shelter and PF the price of food. a....

Nora consumes only two goods (food and clothing) and her preferences for these goods can be represented by the following utility function UF,C=F2C where F is the quantity of food consumed and C is the amount of clothing consumed respectively. Suppose Nora’s allocated monthly income on the two goods is $M and the prices of the two goods (food and clothing) she prefers are $PF for food and $PC for clothing. Using the above information write Nora’s utility maximization problem...

he demand and supply for a particular commodity are given by the following two equations: Demand: P = 10 – 0.2Qd and Supply: P = 2 + 0.2Qs Where Qd and Qs are quantity demanded and quantity supplied, respectively, and P is price. Using the equilibrium condition Qs = Qd, determine equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity. Equilibrium price = $ Equilibrium quantity = units Graph the two equations to substantiate your answer. Instructions: 1. Use the line tools Qd and Qs...

Problem 1
A country (”Home”) is populated with 300 workers who produce
either food (F) and/or clothing (C). Each food worker produces 6
units of food and each clothing worker produces 3 units of
clothing. The preferences of the consumers over food and clothing
are represented by the utility function: u(DF ,
DC) = (DF ) 2/3 (DC)

1) Assuming that at the optimum, consumers set their marginal
rate of substitution, MRSDF ,DC , to the relative price,
i.e.,...
