hi ritu. for q31 of 2010 note that the first person wud buy only x. let py=1. then his income is 1 and demand for x is 1/px. the second person wud demand whichever good is cheaper and his income is 2p1. now v can see that p1 can't be less than 1 bcoz then nobody would demand y. for p1>1 demand for x would b 1/p1 but that can't be equal to 2 (the total endowment). now try for p1=1. u can see that the allocations in part d would be demanded by the 2 people..

Hi Ritu,
Lets do this problem step by step: Step 1: Let price of Y, p(y) = 1. Step 2.1: For p(x) > 0, p(y) = 1, and income of individual 1 as m(1) solve for the demand of agent 1? Step 2.2: For p(x) > 0, p(y) = 1, and income of individual 2 as m(2) solve for the demand of agent 2? Do steps 2.1. and 2.2, I will tell you the rest after you are done with these. |

sir,
for 2.1 since endowmwnt of agent 1 is (0,1) at (px,1), m(1)=1 so dd for x is 1/px for 2.2,agent 2 has endowment (2,0) so at (px,1) m(2)=2px his dd depends on actual price ratio ... *if px/1>1,he chooses (0,m/py)=(0,2px) *ifpx/1<1 he chooses (2px/px,0)=(2,0) *if px/1=1 he can choose any point on budget line |

Ok Good. So, this is what you wrote:
Step 2.1: For p(x) > 0, p(y) = 1, and income of individual 1 as m(1) solve for the demand of agent 1? Demand for X: m(1)/p(x) Demand for Y: 0 Step 2.2: For p(x) > 0, p(y) = 1, and income of individual 2 as m(2) solve for the demand of agent 2? Demand for (X, Y): (m(2)/p(x), 0) for p(x) < 1 Budget line for p(x) = 1 (0, m(2)) for p(x) > 1 Given, endowment of 1 is (0, 1) and endowment of 2 is (2, 0) m(1) = 1 m(2) = 2p(x) Substituting them above, we get: Demand for (X, Y) by 1: (1/p(x), 0) Demand for (X, Y) by 2: (2, 0) for p(x) < 1 Budget line for p(x) = 1 (0, 2p(x)) for p(x) > 1 Now step 3: Find p(x) such that sum of demands for X is equal to 2. |

market wud clear for px/py =1
*if px/py<1 then (say 0.5) 1 demands 2,1 demands 2,,,,but 4 units arent available *is px/py>1 then (say 2) 1 demands 0.5 units of x nd 2 doesnt dd it at all...mkt 1 doesnt clear... so px/py=1 for equlibrium..... |

why is that demand for lexcographical preference x over y
x= m/px y=0; the question mentions if x is the same then consumer would prefer the one with more y.. would this not result in change in demand function? Pls let me know. |
