A. A consumer with Cobb-Douglas utility function U(x1, x2) =sqrt(x1x2)has Marshallian demand x1(p, I) = I/2p1 , x2(p, I) =I/2p2 and Hicksian Demand h1(p, u) = u * sqrt(p2/p1) and h2(p,u) = u* sqrt(p1/p2).
Initially the consumer has a budget I= 100 and prices are p1=p2= 4. Then the price of good 1 increses to p1'= 8.
(a) What is the the compensating variation associated with this price increase?
(b) What is the equivalent variation?
B. A consumer has utility functionU(x1, x2) =âx1+âx2.
(a) Compute his indirect utility function and Marshallian demand function.
(b) From the indirect utility function, deduce his expenditure function.
(c) Use Shephardâs lemma to obtain his Hicksian demand function.
