A preference-maximising consumer’s expenditure function is e(p1, p2, u) = p2(4p1u − p2)/ 4p1 . Suppose that the prices of the goods are initially p 0 1 = 1, p 0 2 = 4, and that the consumer’s income is $120. The prices change to p 1 1 = 2, and p 1 2 = 2 with no change in the consumer’s income. Find the consumer’s consumption bundles at the initial and new prices. For each commodity, partition the change...
