- Lan's utility function is U = xa y1-a where x denotes her consumption of good X, y denotes her consumption of good Y and a = 0.8. The price of good X is Px = 7, the price of good Y is Py = 14 and Lan's income is M = 338. If each price increases by 2 dollars, how much money must Lan be given to compensate her for the price increase?the Marshallian Demands for the utility function U(x,y) =0.5x + 5ln ya) For this utility function calculate the Hicksian demand functions for x and y.b) Use your Marshallian and Hicksian demand functions to calculate the partial derivative of both Marshallian and Hicksian demand for x with respect to px and the partial derivative of Marshallian demand with respect to income.c) Use your answers for (b) to verify the Slutsky equationUse the following generalized linear demand relation to answer the question: Qd = 100 - 5P + 0.004M - 5PR where P is the price of the good X, M is income and PR is the price of a related good, R. Using the above generalized linear demand relation, if M = 40,000 and PR = 20 and the supply function is Qs = 85 + 10P, what is market price and output? Thank you for helping me :D
- Suppose U = 2X + Y, I = 20, Px = 2, and Py = 2. (a) Find Marshallian demand for X and Y . (b) What is Marshallian demand for X and Y if the price of X increases to 5? How much of the change in demand for X is the income effect and how much is the substitution effect? (c) How much is compensating variation for the price change described in part (b)? (d) How much is equivalent variation for the price change described in part (b)? ( Please solve all the subparts ASAP I will give you thumbs up . )A consumer’s preferences over two goods x and y are given bythe utility function U(x, y) = x^αy^β with α, β > 0. The prices of the goods are px = 2 and py = 4.The consumer has an income of I > 0.• For what values of α and β are these utility functions strictly monotone?• For what values of α and β will the consumer demand (i.e., Walrasian demand) be more x than y?• For what values of α and β are these goods gross substitutes? For what values of α and β are these goods gross complements? Provide a justification for your answer.Sara’s demand function for good x is x(px,py,m) = m , where px is the 2px price of good x, py is the price of good y, and m is the income level. Is x a normal good at px = 1 and m = 24? Explore this by taking derivative of demand function with respect to m. Is x an ordinary good at px = 1 and m = 24? Explore this by taking derivative of demand function with respect to px.
- the income level is i=100. suppose the demand function of good x is always given by qx=50/Px regardless of the price of Good Y l. then the two goods, x and y are:The demand for a good is QA=200+0.3I-PA+2PB, where QA is the quantity demanded of Good A, I is the individual’s income, PA is the price of Good A, and PB is the price of Good B. Which of the following statements is true? a. Good A is a normal Good. In addition, Goods A & B are substitutes. b. Good A is a normal Good. In addition, Goods A & B are complements. c. Good A is an inferior Good. In addition, Goods A & B are substitutes. d. Good A is an inferior Good. In addition, Goods A & B are complements.(a) Draw a figure showing the separation of the substitution effect from the income effect (as defined by Hick) for a price increase. (b) Draw another figure showing the derivation of two demand curves for a price increase, one that keeps money income constant and the other that keeps real income constant as defined by Hicks (c) Which of the two demand curves you derived in part (b) is more price elastic for the price increase? Why? Would your answer change if the good were inferior? (d) Draw another figure showing why the demand curve that keeps money income is not really a demand curve at all.
- Lea's utility function is U =0.7 ln( x ) + y where x denotes her consumption of good X and y denotes her consumption of good Y. Suppose the government imposes a per-unit tax on good X equal to 5 dollars. The price of good X charged by the sellers of good X is Px = 9 (and does not change due to the tax), the price of good Y is Py = 13 and Lea's income is M = 389. What is Lea's own-price substitution effect of the price increase due to the tax ?Let the utility function be given by: U(x, y) = min{2x, 3y} where px and py are the corresponding pricesand m is the income.1. On a graph, draw a couple of the indifference curves. Make sure label the ‘kinks’ precisely. 2. Find the optimal bundles x∗ and y∗. Give an algebraic expression for the relationship between x and y at the optimal bundles. 3. Graph the income offer curve for these preferences. What’s the common feature of the income offercurve for perfect substitutes and perfect complements? [Hint: All homothetic preferences which includethese two and also Cobb-Douglas, share this feature.]Suppose Mr. Alemu consumes two commodities, X and Y. The income of Mr.Alemu is $200, and price of X is 5 and the price of Y is 15. The demand function for the comnmodity is given as: Qx=100-0.75y +0.251px^1/3 + 2py^3/2 where Qx is quantity demand of commodity X. 7Px is the price of commodity X, py, is the price of commodity Y and I is income. Then: A. Find the price elasticity of demand. Decide whether it is elastic, unitary clastic or inelastic
