Consider a pure exchange economy with two consumers and two goods. Total endowments of the two goods are given by X̅=10 and Y̅=20. Consumer A’s utility function is given by UA(XA,YA)=sqrtXAYA.. Consumer B regards the two goods as perfect substitutes with MRS=2.
(1) Find the contract curve for this economy.
(2) Suppose the initial endowments are given as the following: 2,8), (XA, YA)=(2,8) (XB,YB)=(8,12). Find the set of Pareto efficient allocations that Pareto dominate the endowment poin

Consider a pure exchange economy with two individuals (A and B) and two goods (x and y). The utility functions are given by UA(xA, yA) = min[xA, yA] UB(xB, yB) = min[xB, yB], where xi and yi are the quantities of the two goods consumed by individual i = A, B. The total endowments are wx = 10 and wy = 5. (a) Represent the indifference curves of both individuals in the Edgeworth box and find the Pareto set. (b)...

Consumer A has a utility function u(x,y) = xA + yA and an endowment of (x,y) = (25,5). Consumer B has a utility function u(x,y) = min{xB,yB} and an endowment (x,y) = (25,45). a. Carefully sketch the Edgeworth Box and indicate where the endowment is. b. What is A’s utility and B’s utility if they each simply consumer their endowments? c. Next, add the indifference curve for A and B, through their endowments in your Edgeworth Box. d. Find a...

A two-person economy consists of Ann and Bob. Both of them only consume x and y. Ann’s utility over these two goods is UA(xA, yA) = xAy2A and Bob’s utility is UB(xB, yB) = x2ByB. Initially, Ann is endowed with 9 units of x and zero units of y; Bob is endowed with 6 units of y and zero units of x. (a) Write Ann’s marginal rate of substitution in terms of xA and yA and Bob’s marginal rate of...
