Pure Exchange Model 1. Consider a Pure Exchange Economy with two agents A and B and two goods X and Y in which each agent acts competitively. Their preferences are given by the following utility function U(X,Y)=X13*Y23 Their initial endowments are as follows W=(5,20) w- (25,10) a) Calculate the demand functions for Good X and Good Y for each agent. b) State the equilibrium conditions for this economy. c) Using these conditions and the demand functions found in part a)...

Charlotte and Wilber are two agents in a two-agent, two-commodity pure exchange economy where apples and bananas are the two commodities. Charlotte loves apples and hates bananas. Her utility function is Ucu, b) = u 5 , where a is the number of apples she consumes and b in the number of bananas she consumes. Wilber likes both apples and bananas. His utility function is Uca, b) = a +2Vb. Charlotte has an initial endowment of no apples and 8...

Suppose that all agents in the economy have the following utility function U(c,l)=( c(1-θ) /(1- θ ))-l where c is consumption, l is the supply of labor, and θ a fixed parameter. Suppose that individuals only have labor income, with an hourly wage of w and a tax rate of t. Thus, the budget constraint of the agent is w(1-t) l=c . We will assume here that θ = 0.5 and w = 1. The elasticity of the labor supply with...

Problem #-Samuelson Public Good Econ 330- YJY 1.. Consider a community consisting of three voters, Al, Bob and Cathy. The Marginal Benefit function for each person is, for lighthouse service G is; MBa = 40 – 4G for Al, MBb = 20 – 2G for Bob, and MBc = 10 – G for Cathy. (Interpret this as demand function.) The marginal cost of producing the government service is MC= 24. (i).. Draw a diagram to show the marginal benefit functions...

2. Consider an economy of identical individuals who earn a wage w while working and nothing when they don't. With probability 0 < p < 1, the individuals become unemployed and earn nothing. When unemployed, individuals get an employment insurance (EI) benefit of b from the government. When working, individuals pay a tax of t ∗ w to ?nance the EI program. Assume that agents have no other source of consumption in either state. Let u(c) = ln(c) denote the...

1. Consider an agent who values consumption in period 0 and 1 according to the following utility function: u(co, C)In(Co)+8 In(c1) is a discount factor (5 < 1) which indicates that the agnet prefers to consume today more than he can tomorrow. Suppose that the agent is given a total wealth today of w and that he may save any portion of this money in order to consume tomorrow. If he saves money he is paid interest r. Thus the...

Consider an agent who has an original income of 100. The gent now faces an uncertain situation with two states, each state occurring with probability in state 1, the weat faces a safe situation and incurs no cost to his original income. In state 2, the agent suffers an accident that imposes a loss of L=75. Hence in state 1, the agent's income is 100 while in state 2. his income is 100 - 75 = 25. The...

Competitive Equilibrium (10 pts) Consider an economy with a representative consumer, a representative firm, and a government. • The consumer can work up to h hours at an hourly rate of w. She only gets utility from consumption and does not care about how much she works. Their preferences are represented by the utility function U(C, l) = ln(C). The consumer also owns an exogenously given K units of capital, which they can rent to the firms at a price...

3.
