t. Consumer’s problem: Choose {x1,x2,,xN} 2. Solve problem EMIN (minimize expenditure): min p1x1 + p2x2 s. Expenditure Minimization 4 lectures • 14min. A detailed look at how to maximize utility by using three popular utility functions: Cobb-Douglas, perfect substitutes, and perfect complements (fixed proportions). For the utility Compensated demand & the expenditure function with Cobb-Douglas utility Expenditure minimization and compensated demand 7. Preferences satisfy completeness, transitivity and continuity. I am sorry for the sound problem in the last Problem 3 Hicksian Demand and Expenditure Function for Perfect Complements Solve the expenditure minimization problem for (x,y) min { Ax, By} using A = 1 and B = 2 pc 5 and py 1 and Introductory Alternatively, we could minimize expenditures subject to attain some target level of utility ̄u Take utility as given, minimize expenditures This formulation and the previous one are equivalent This minimization w = p x where x 2 h (p; v). The trick to calculating Hicksian demand is to use expenditure minimization subject to a constant level of utility, rather than A is the solution to the dual problem Quantity of x2 Expenditure level E2 provides just enough to reach U A Expenditure level E3 will allow the individual to reach U but is not the minimal expenditure required In this video I go through solving for hicksian demands for n-good Leonteif (perfect compliments) preferences. Preferences usually satisfy monotonicity and convexity. Compensated demand & the expenditure function with perfect Solution to Expenditure Minimization The solution to the expenditure minimization problem are the Hicksian (“compensated”) demand functions: 1 = ( 2 ) 2 = 2 ( Plugging these back into p 1x 1 + p 2x 2 Calculating Hicksian Demand For Hicksian demand, utility is held constant. Also useful to study “dual” problem of choosing To solve the expenditure minimization problem with the given utility function =, where = 1 and = 2, we will derive the Hicksian demand functions and the expenditure function step by step. Example: Expenditure function from the Cobb-Douglas function. From demand function and utility maximization assumption, we can reveal the preference of We can write a generic perfect complements utility function as u (x 1, x 2) = min {x 1 a, x 2 b} u(x1,x2) = min{ax1, bx2} As we’ve argued before, the optimal bundle for this sort of utility function will occur Hicksian Demand and Expenditure Function for Perfect Complements Solve the expenditure minimization problem for U (x,y)=min{Ax,By} Using A=1 and B =2,px In this episode I study utility maximization problem with linear utility functions (i. Walrasian and Hicksian demand must coincide when computed In the EmP we assume a rational and locally non-satiated consumer with convex preferences that minimises expenditure to reach a given level of utility; we denote the optimally demanded bundles at 2. 2 Properties of Hicksian Demand and the Expenditure Function Expenditure minimization is the problem of minimizing a linear function (p x) • over an arbitrary set (fx : u(x) xg) Which means it has . In such a case, we say that x1 and x2 are perfect Perfect Substitutes: u(x1, x2) = x1 + x2 Perfect Complements: u(x1, x2) = min{x1, x2} Solve the expenditure minimization problem. e. 1 Does the Expenditure Minimization Problem Have a Solution? With Marshallian demand, when p • 0, we noted that B(p; w) is compact, so we knew the consumer problem has a solution The trick to calculating Hicksian demand is to use expenditure minimization subject to a constant level of utility, rather than utility maximization subject to a constant level of income. , perfect substitutes). Your answer should include h1(p1, p2, u), h2(p1, p2, u), and e(p1, How does one solve utility maximization of perfect substitutes using Lagrangian function? Consider the problem $$\\max_ {x,y} ax +by $$ subject to the constraint that We will understand how we write In this video I go through solving for hicksian demands for n-good perfect substitutes preferences. u(x1, x2) ≥ ̄u hi(p1, p2, ̄u) is Hicksian or compensated demand Optimum coincides with optimum of Utility Maxi-mization! Formally: hi(p1, Consumer faces linear prices {p1,p2,,pN}. (M3E7) [Microeconomics] Utility Maximization Problem with Perfect Complements - Part 1 8 We can write a generic perfect complements utility function as u (x 1, x 2) = min {x 1 a, x 2 b} u(x1,x2) = min{ax1, bx2} As we’ve argued before, the optimal bundle for this sort of utility function will occur At some point, we have been considering the case in which two goods, say (x1; x2), can only be consumed in a xed proportion to each other. The expenditure function gives us a convenient way to potentially circumvent this problem. Using the expenditure function, we can figure out how much money a consumer would have to be compen However, as with utility maximization subject to a budget constraint, the solution to a cost minimization problem may not be characterized by a point of tangency between an indifference curve and a The Expenditure Minimization Problem In (CP), consumer chooses consumption vector to maximize utility subject to maximum budget constraint. The utility level for the constraint in the expenditure minimization problem must be v = u(x ) where x 2 x (p; v).
