Suggested Repsonses Spring, 2006 Problem Set #3. Chapter 3, Problems 3.2, 3.4, 3.5, 3.7 3.2. Suppose the utility function for two goods, X and Y, has the Cobb-Douglas form utility = U(X,Y) = (XY)1/2 a. Graph the U=10 indifference curve associated with this utility function When U=10, we have 100 = XY Or Y = 100/X Thus dY/dX = - 100/X2  b. If X = 5, what must Y equal to be on the U=10 indifference curve? What is the MRS at this point? XYUMRS5201041010101156.666667100.4420510 With X=5, MRS = 100/25 = 4. For reference, I also list other values. Reading down in the above table observe that as we move from the consumption of relatively few Xs to relatively more, the MRS falls. That is, you must give up progressively fewer units of Y to gain constant increments of X a diminishing MRS that indicates a preference for a mix of X and Y. c. In general, develop an expression for the MRS for this utility function. Show how this can be interpreted as the ratio of the marginal utilities for X and Y. U(X,Y) = (XY)1/2. Taking the total differential dU = UXdX+UYdY = .5(Y/X).5dX +.5(X/Y).5dY = 0 Solving the middle equality dY/dX = -UX/UY Solving the rightmost expression . dY/dX = -Y/X so the MRS = Y/X (the opposite of dY/dX) d. Consider a logarithmic transformation of this utility function U = logU Where log is the logarithmic function to base 10. Show that for this transformation the U=1 indifference curve has the same properties as the U=10 curve calculated in parts (a) and (b). What is the general expression for the MRS of this transformed utility function? U = log (XY)1/2 = .5logX + .5logY Plotting ordered pairs when U=1 yields XYUlogXlogYU'MRS5201000.698971.301031410101001111156.6666671001.1760910.8239091.442051001.301030.698971.25 Obviously indifference curves are the same for each utility function. One can totally differentiate U to obtain the same general expression for the MRS as before: dU = (.5/X)dX + (.5/Y)dY = 0 Solving dY/dX = -Y/X so the MRS = Y/X 3.4 For each of the following expressions, state the formal assumption that is being made about the individuals utility function. a. It (margarine) is just as good as the high-price spread (butter). MRSmb = 1, where m = margarine and b = butter. b. Peanut butter and jelly go together like a horse and carriage Peanut butter and jelly are perfect complements. That is U(peanut butter, jelly) = min{peanut butter, jelly} Where the terms peanut butter and jelly refer to servings of each product. c. Things go better with Coke. Coca Cola is a complement for all goods. That is, for any good x Ux, coca cola>0 d. Popcorn is addictive the more you eat, the more you want. Popcorn consumption exhibits increasing marginal utility, e.g., Upopcorn >0. e. Mosquitoes ruin a nice day at the beach. Mosquito avoidance and a (mosquito free) day at the beach are perfect substitutes. Let the incremental utility of the day at the beach be U(beach)>0. Then the incremental utility of a day at the beach with mosquitoes is U(beach, mosquitoes) < 0. In other words, the marginal utility of a day at the beach is less than or equal to the marginal disutility of mosquitoes. f. A day without wine is like a day without sunshine. The marginal (more precisely the incremental) utility of a wine just equals the marginal (incremental) utility of sunshine in a day. g. It takes two to tango. tango dancing and a partner are perfect complements in consumption. U(tango, partner) = min(tango, partner) 3.5 Graph a typical indifference curve for the following utility functions and determine whether they have convex indifference curves (that is, whether they obey the assumption of a diminishing MRS)  a. U = 3X + Y Here the MRS = -dY/dX = 3. The MRS is a constant, and does not exhibit diminishing MRS. b. U = (XY).5 XYUMRS5201041010101156.6666667100.444444205100.25 Here MRS is dY/dX = X/Y. As seen in the rightmost column of the above table, this does exhibit diminishing MRS c. U= (X2 + Y2).5 Suppose we confine attention to constant increments of X and a utility level of 28.28. XYUMRS202028.28427111523.97628.2815940.6256261026.45528.281920.378527.83628.2814940.179624 Here the utility function is obviously concave, implying an increasing MRS. More formally, dU = X(X2 + Y2)-.5dX+ Y(X2 + Y2)-.5dY =0 implies dY/dX = - X/Y. Values are shown in the rightmost column of the above table. Notice that the MRS moves directly with X (Constant increments of X require giving up increasing increments of Y) Notice: What does this imply about the preferred consumption bundle? It implies that for a given budget constraint, utility will be maximized at one corner or the other. For example, an agent may want to select either a collection of modern black and silver furniture for a room, or 18th century Jaocbian antiques, depending on the relative price. But the consumer may be worse of with a combination of the two. d. U= (X2 - Y2).5 Plotting some points XYUMRS2017.31510.009534-1.155071511.17510.005967-1.34228126.6310.002155-1.80995114.5510.014864-2.4175810010#DIV/0! Graphically Here, notice the Y is a bad. Thus, the slope of the MRS is negative. More formally, dU = X(X2-Y2)-.5dX Y(X2-Y2)-.5dY = 0 implies dY/dX = X/Y Given a budget constraint, with positive prices for both, the consumer would maximize utility by purchasing only X. On the other hand, if we framed the problem in terms of Y removal, then U = (X2+Y2).5 as we established in the part c, the MRS for such a problemX/Y exhibits an increasing MRS. So even were Y presented as a good the consumer would consume either X or not Y. e. U = X2/3Y1/3 XYUMRS202.5100.25154.4510.004170.59333310101025401016 This is another variant of a Cobb-Douglas function. The function does exhibit diminishing MRS. Formally, dU = (2/3)X-1/3Y1/3)dX + (1/3) X2/3Y-1/3)dY =0 implies dY/dX = -2Y/X. Values are shown in the rightmost column of the above table. f. U = log X + log Y. We analyzed this function in problem 3.2(d). Looking the table shown below, it is obvious that the MRS for this function is the same as for 3.5(b). XYUMRSlogXlogYU'205100.51.301030.698971156.6666667100.8888891.17609130.8239087110101021115201080.698971.301031 Formally, dU = dX/X + dY/Y = 0 Solving dY/dX = -Y/X 3.7. Consider the following utility functions. Show that each of these has a diminishing MRS, but that they exhibit constant, increasing and decreasing marginal utility, respectively. What can you conclude? a. U(X,Y) = XY MRS: dU = YdX + XdY = 0 Implies that dY/dX = -Y/X. This is diminishing MRS. Not consider marginal utility. U1 = Y, U2 = X. These are both positive for any positive combination of Y and X. The second order conditions U11 = 0, U22 = 0 suggest that they have constant marginal utility for each good. b. U(X,Y) = X2Y2 MRS: dU = 2XY2dX + 2YX2dY = 0 Implies that dY/dX = -Y/X. This is the same as above, diminishing. Utility. In the above function U11 =2Y2, U22 = 2X2. These are both positive, so the function exhibits increasing marginal utility. (More generally, with U11 >0, U22 >0 and U12 = 4XY, we have U11 U22 - U122 = 4X2Y2 -16X2Y2 <0. Thus, this function as a whole is not convex. It does, however, satisfy quasi convexity, since the indifference curve is convex. (More mechanically, U11U22 - 2 U12 U1U2+ U22U12 = 2Y2(4X4Y2) -2(4XY)(2XY2)(2YX2) + 2X2(4Y4X2) 8X4Y4 - 32 X4Y4 <0 ) c. U(X,Y) = lnX + lnY MRS: dU = dX/X + dY/Y = 0 Implies that dY/dX = -Y/X. This is the same as above, diminishing MRS. Utility. In the above function U11 =-dX/X2 0, U22 = -dY/Y2 and U12 = 0. Thus U11 <0,. This implies diminishing marginal utility (and indeed, the function is concave since U11 U22 - U122 = 1/X2Y2 >0.) Result: Convexity in X1 X2 space does not imply concavity in U(X1 X2 ) space.  #$1>?) j k m n o     5 ; D _ }tk`khy!6OJQJo(hy!6OJQJhW16OJQJhy!5B*CJaJph#hy!B*CJOJQJ^JaJphhy!B*CJaJphh jhW1Uhy!hy!6H*hy!hy!6hW1mH sH hW15H*mH sH hW15mH sH  hW15h+D~hHhH5hHhy!hW1%$1hi( ) < F I T U Z [ m n p q $$7$8$H$Ifa$'' ~~~~ $$7$8$H$Ifa$rkd$$Ifl\ 4 laN ~~~~ $$7$8$H$Ifa$rkd$$Ifl\ 4 laN   ~~~~ $$7$8$H$Ifa$rkd$$Ifl\ 4 laN      ~~~~ $$7$8$H$Ifa$rkd?$$Ifl\ 4 laN   ` * + \   ^rkd$$Ifl\ 4 laN_ ` " f p    + 4 5 9 < \ b c g h t v    X Y 1;oqƽƽƸ{ƽƽƽƽhc5OJQJhy!OJQJ hW16H*hW16H*mH sH hW16H*mH sH hW16mH sH  hW16H* hW16hW1OJQJo(hW1OJQJh:E6OJQJo(h:E6OJQJhy!6OJQJo(hy!6OJQJhW16OJQJ/ V a no $$7$8$H$Ifa$qr}OZ<=z  :|  <]6=BDEnop?Ibúúæh 6OJQJh:E6OJQJhW16H*OJQJhW1OJQJo(hW1OJQJh:EOJQJh:E6B*CJaJphhW16H*OJQJhW16OJQJhW16OJQJo(9SEEEEEE $$7$8$H$Ifa$kdg$$Ifl֞ 4 laNEkd= $$Ifl֞ 4 laN $$7$8$H$Ifa$ Ekd $$Ifl֞ 4 laN $$7$8$H$Ifa$(*./248Ekd $$Ifl֞ 4 laN $$7$8$H$Ifa$8@HJNOPECCkd $$Ifl֞ 4 laN $$7$8$H$Ifa$<> 9:{|<=\]` ^`5BCp-._`abcdeftvx $$Ifa$ 0^`0^`bchxVW[\./~]`fqtͿ͙͡͡鐪͇qqqqhW1CJOJQJ^JaJhW1CJaJhW1H*OJQJh2y6OJQJjh2yUhW1OJQJo(h:E6OJQJh hW16OJQJh hW16OJQJo(hW1OJQJhW16OJQJo(h 6OJQJhW16OJQJh h 6>*OJQJ+xz~}t $$Ifa$xkd] $$Ifl\ ''''@644 lal $$Ifa$}}}t $$Ifa$ $$Ifa$xkd% $$Ifl\ ''''@644 lal}}}t $$Ifa$ $$Ifa$xkd $$Ifl\ ''''@644 lal}}}t $$Ifa$ $$Ifa$xkdE$$Ifl\ ''''@644 lal12345I||||||||nnn $$7$8$H$Ifa$ 0^`0xkd$$Ifl\ ''''@644 lal !,56>?CDEHI(0s|ҽ|nn^h:EhW16OJQJmH sH h:EhW16OJQJo(jh:EhW16Uh:Eh2y6OJQJ,h:EhW16B*CJOJQJ^JaJph h:EhW16B*CJaJphh:EhW16OJQJhW1H*OJQJhW1OJQJh2y6OJQJhW16OJQJo(hW16OJQJjhW1U~p $$7$8$H$Ifa$rkde$$Ifl\ d4 laN $$7$8$H$Ifa$~~~p $$7$8$H$Ifa$ $$7$8$H$Ifa$rkd?$$Ifl\ d4 laN~~~p $$7$8$H$Ifa$ $$7$8$H$Ifa$rkd$$Ifl\ d4 laN ~~~p $$7$8$H$Ifa$ $$7$8$H$Ifa$rkd$$Ifl\ d4 laNsfg1 0^`0rkd%$$Ifl\ d4 laN|}g21¶xpgpgpgp[hW1B*CJaJphhW1H*OJQJhW1OJQJh"|&OJQJh"|&h"|&6OJQJo(h"|&h"|&6H*OJQJh"|&h"|&6OJQJh"|&h:E6OJQJo(h"|&h:E6OJQJh:EhW16OJQJh:Eh2y6OJQJmH sH h:EhW16OJQJmH sH "h:EhW16H*OJQJmH sH !1357;<?FPY~p $$7$8$H$Ifa$rkd$$Ifl\\ 84 laN $$7$8$H$Ifa$ YZ]dnw~~~p $$7$8$H$Ifa$ $$7$8$H$Ifa$rkd$$Ifl\\ 84 laNwx{~~~p $$7$8$H$Ifa$ $$7$8$H$Ifa$rkdC$$Ifl\\ 84 laN~~~p $$7$8$H$Ifa$ $$7$8$H$Ifa$rkd$$Ifl\\ 84 laN~~~~ $$7$8$H$Ifa$rkd$$Ifl\\ 84 laN~~~~ $$7$8$H$Ifa$rkd)$$Ifl\\ 84 laN-.T\hjk 0^`0rkd$$Ifl\\ 84 laN,.679:;>EFHIJMThijk̸̬̣tgWhBh2y6OJQJmH sH hB6OJQJmH sH hB6OJQJmH sH "hBhB6H*OJQJmH sH hBhB6OJQJmH sH hB6OJQJh"|&h"|&6OJQJh"|&6OJQJhW16OJQJo(hW16OJQJhW1OJQJjhW1UmHnHuh"|&OJQJh"|&B*CJaJphk./12356Xu%&IKL꽱wi^hCJ6>*OJQJhCJhW16>*OJQJhCJhW16OJQJjhCJhW16UhW1H*OJQJhCJB*CJaJphhW1B*CJaJphhBhW1H*OJQJhBhW1OJQJhCJ6OJQJo(hCJ6OJQJhBhB6H*OJQJhB6OJQJhBhB6OJQJ#  zl $$7$8$H$Ifa$vkdm$$IfTl\ 4 laNT $$7$8$H$Ifa$ '0zzzl $$7$8$H$Ifa$ $$7$8$H$Ifa$vkdK$$IfTl\ 4 laNT0147:<zzzl $$7$8$H$Ifa$ $$7$8$H$Ifa$vkd$$IfTl\ 4 laNT<=?BEHzzzl $$7$8$H$Ifa$ $$7$8$H$Ifa$vkd$$IfTl\ 4 laNTHIJK A ~~~~uh~~~~~ ^`gdCJ^gd2y 0^`0vkd=$$IfTl\ 4 laNT   A C D Z [ !!չⰨvhv`Ov hCJhW16B*CJaJphhCJhW16hCJhW16OJQJo(hCJhW16OJQJhCJhCJOJQJmH sH hCJhW1OJQJmH sH hCJOJQJhW1OJQJhW16OJQJhCJ6OJQJmH sH hW16H*OJQJmH sH hW16OJQJmH sH h2y6OJQJmH sH h2yhW16OJQJmH sH A B C D !! $$7$8$H$Ifa$ 0^`0 !! ! !!!!SEEE7E $$7$8$H$Ifa$ $$7$8$H$Ifa$kd$$Ifl֞p dI884 laN!#!%!&!)!3!6!Ekd $$Ifl֞p dI884 laN $$7$8$H$Ifa$6!?!I!S!U!V!Y!7kd$$Ifl֞p dI884 laN $$7$8$H$Ifa$ $$7$8$H$Ifa$Y!\!_!a!c!e!g! $$7$8$H$Ifa$ $$7$8$H$Ifa$g!h!j!m!p!r!z!SEEE7E $$7$8$H$Ifa$ $$7$8$H$Ifa$kd$$Ifl֞p dI884 laNz!!!!!!!E;;; 0^`0kd$$Ifl֞p dI884 laN $$7$8$H$Ifa$!!!!!!w"x"""""""""""####"###f#############ö~uj~]hW1H*OJQJmH sH hCJ6H*OJQJh;6OJQJhCJ6H*OJQJhCJhCJ6H*OJQJhCJ6OJQJhW16OJQJhCJ6OJQJmH sH hW16OJQJmH sH hW1OJQJmH sH hCJOJQJhW1OJQJh2yOJQJhCJhW16OJQJhCJh2y6OJQJ$!!!"""""""####$I$J$$%%%&+&,&-&D&gd2y ^`^^ 0^`0########$j$l$p$q$t$v${$|$~$$$$$$$$$$$·¬¡¬scVGhCJ6H*OJQJmH sH hCJ6OJQJmH sH hCJhCJ6OJQJmH sH hW16H*OJQJmH sH hCJ6OJQJo(hCJ6OJQJhCJ6H*OJQJhW16H*OJQJhW16H*OJQJhW16H*OJQJhW16OJQJhW16H*OJQJmH sH hW16OJQJmH sH hW1H*OJQJmH sH hW1OJQJmH sH $$$$$ %%%%%%%% %!%"%$%(%)%*%+%1%<%E%P%`%%%%%%庫哊q_O_hChC6OJQJmH sH "hChC6H*OJQJmH sH hChC6OJQJmH sH h;6OJQJhC6OJQJhW16OJQJhW16H*OJQJmH sH hW16H*OJQJmH sH hW16H*OJQJmH sH hC6H*OJQJmH sH hC6OJQJmH sH hW16OJQJmH sH hCJ6OJQJmH sH %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%&&&& & & &&&&&&&&&&&& &!&"&μ޼޼μ޼ޠΑΠΠΠΠΠΠ"hChC6H*OJQJmH sH hC6H*OJQJmH sH hC6OJQJmH sH hC6H*OJQJmH sH "hChC6H*OJQJmH sH hChC6OJQJmH sH hChC6OJQJmH sH "hChC6H*OJQJmH sH 2"&#&$&%&*&+&,&1&D&E&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&)'V'ļ}}papTh;6OJQJmH sH hW16H*OJQJmH sH hW16OJQJmH sH hW16H*OJQJhW16H*OJQJhW16H*OJQJh;6OJQJhW16OJQJhW1OJQJmH sH hW1OJQJh;h;6OJQJmH sH h;6OJQJmH sH hC6OJQJmH sH "hChC6H*OJQJmH sH D&E&`&&&&s't''''' ^`^^ V'X'Z'\'`'b'c'i'j'k'm'p'q'r's't''''''''''''''乭hW1hW16OJQJo(hW16H*OJQJhW16OJQJhW1OJQJmH sH hW16OJQJmH sH h;6H*OJQJmH sH h;6H*OJQJmH sH h;6OJQJmH sH h;6H*OJQJmH sH ,1h/ =!"#$% `!
