Compute the market demand function (as a function of prices and income y) corresponding to a Cobb-Douglas utility function with equal coefficients a1= 1/3 and a2=1/3. What are the demands at prices p1=p2=1 and income y=10? Suppose the price of good 1 rises to 2. Compute the price effects, substitution effects and income effects for the two goods.

In the market of cars, there are two firms operating. The Industry Demand Curve is a function of the outputs being produced by both firms, and is given as: P = 240−(X1+X2), where X1 and X2 are the outputs of Firm 1 and Firm 2 respectively. The Total Cost faced by Firm 1 is TC1 = 20X1 and by Firm 2 is TC2 = 20X2. Each firm maximizes its own profit by choosing its own output, while taking the output...
