- 9. Consider an exchange economy with two individuals, a and b, and two goods, x and y. Individual a has utility function U"(x, y) = x?y, and individual 6 has utility function U(x, y) = 3x+4y. What condition will hold at all Pareto efficient allocations in the interior of the Edgeworth box? A. ***8yª = 3r" B. yº = { C. 8y = 3.xb D. y" = 2x"a) Explain exchange efficiency and production efficiency and give the main condition for each type of these efficiencies.b) Do you think Pareto Efficiency is enough to explain Pareto Efficiency? If yes, why, if not, why not? Discuss.E A B D. Bread Wine
- Consider a simple economy which produces two goods; pizzas and tractors. Using the production possibilities boundary and graphs for the pizza and tractor market show and explain how the precise allocatively and productively efficient point on the production possibilities boundary can be determined. Please draw a graph to show, not just write step by step.Consider a pure-exchange economy of two individuals (A and B) and two goods (X and Y). Individual A is endowed with 5 units of good X and 3 units of good Y, while individual B with 3 and 4 units of goods X and Y, respectively. Assuming utility functions of individuals A and B to be UA=XA YA² and UB-XB² YB where Xi and Yi for i= {A, B} represent individual i's consumption of good X and Y respectively, what will be the set of Pareto optimal allocation in this economy?iii) Define "Free Good" in a general equilibrium framework. Explain whether the goods are free goods in the following context after determining the equilibrium price. Consider an exchange economy. There are two consumers A and B and two goods X and Y. A has lexicographic preference over good X and B also has the same type of preference. Their endowment is (5,5) each.
- Economics Question5 Three Goods Consider a pure exchange economy with three goods: x1, x2 and x3. Consumer A’s utility function is U A = min {x1, x2}. He starts with one unit of x1 and none of the other goods. Consumer B’s utility function is U B = min {x2, x3}. He starts with one unit of x2 and none of the other goods. Consumer C’s utility function is U C = min {x1, x3}. He starts with one unit of x3 and none of the other goods. Find the general equilibrium prices and allocation7) Jane has 3 liters of soft drinks and 9 sandwiches. Bob, on the other hand, has 8 liters of soft drinks and 4 sandwiches. With these endowments, Jane's marginal rate of substitution ( MRS) of soft drinks for sandwiches is 4 and Bob's MRS is equal to 2. Draw an Edgeworth box diagram to show whether this allocation of resources is efficient. If it is, explain why. If it is not, what exchanges will make both parties better off?
- Let assume, you live in an economy where two goods are being produced (say x and y) and labor can be allocated in the production of either good freely, but the other factor is specific. For your more information, good X" can be produced with labor and capital and good "y" can be produced with labor and land. Given the situation, a) How much does the each good the economy produced? b) How much labor will be employed in each sector?Jane has 9 liters of soft drinks and 12 sandwiches. Bob, on the other hand, has 11 liters of soft drinks and 8 sandwiches. With these endowments, Jane's marginal rate of substitution (MRS) of soft drinks for sandwiches is 4 and Bob's MRS is equal to 3. Draw an Edgeworth box diagram to show whether this allocation of resources is efficient. If it is explain why. If it is not, what changes will make both parties better off? 1.)
