Consider a two-period economy discussed in Chapter 9. Suppose there are only two households, and each household's utility function and endowment are given as follows. u' (C1,C2) = (C122) and e' = (18,4). u? (C1,C2) = Incı + 2 Inc and e? = (3,6). el denote the allocation of endowment income for household i. For simplicity, there is no government, and therefore no tax in both periods. There is a perfectly competitive credit (financial market in which they can buy...

For Question 12 to 15, let the utility function of the household be U(c,d) = ln(c) + Bln(c'), where B is a parameter between 0 and 1, and assume that there is always an interior solution to the household's problem. 12. What is the marginal rate of substitution of current consumption for future con- sumption MRS given this utility function? How does it change with c and c'? 13. Solve the household's optimization problem with the lifetime budget constraint. That...

Consider the two-period model from Chapter 9, and assume there is one representative consumer with utility function uc,d) = Iníc) + In(d), so the time discount factor is 3 = 1. There is also a government that levies lump-sum taxes in the current and future periods. The government has expenditures of G = 580 in the current period and G' = 630 in the future period. (a) Suppose the consumer has current and future income (w.y') = (3500, 6510), and...

2. TIME PREFERENCE In class, we solved a two-period savings model where a consumer allocates income across two periods. We assumed the consumer’s intertemporal utility function was given by: U(c1,c2) = log(c1) + δlog(c2) and that their intertemporal budget constraint was M1 + M2 = c1 + c2 . 1+r 1+r Along the way to solving that problem, we found that consumers should select their consumption in each period so that: u′(c1) = δ(1 + r)u′(c2), where δ is the...

Problem 1 Consider the following two-period utility maximization problem. This utility function belongs to the CRRA (Constant Relative Risk Aversion) class of functions which can be thought of as generalized logarithmic functions. An agent lives for two periods and in both receives some positive income. subject to +6+1 4+1 = 3+1 + (1 + r) ar+1 where a > 0,13 € (0, 1) and r>-1.

Question 1. (Consumption-Saving Problem): Suppose that a consumer lives for two periods. The utility function of the consumer is given by 1-1 1-1 with μ > 0 where c1 and c2 are consumption in period 1 and period 2 respectively (Portfolio Choice Problem) Now suppose that the consumer can save in terms of two instruments: financial savings (s) and capital investment (k). Capital investment done in period 1 yields output ka with 0 < α < 1 in period 2....

2. An review of intertemporal optimization: Suppose a consumer's utility function is given by U(c,2) where ci is consumption in period 1 and ca is consumption in perio You can assume that the price of consumption does not change between periods 1 and 2. The consumer has $100 at the beginning of period 1 and uses this money to fund consumption across the two periods (i.e. the consumer does not gain additional income...
