Question:

Question-3 Suppose the consumer’s utility function is given by U (x1 , x2 ) = x1x 2 2 . Let the prices of good 1, good 2 be p1 , p2 , and suppose this consumer wants to reach a level of utility U

(a) [2] Formulate the consumer’s problem in terms of the Lagrangian

(b) [5] Derive the Hicksian demands for this consumer

(c) [3] What is the expenditure for this consumer.

(d) [5] Show that x H ( p1 = 1, p2 = 2, U⋆ = from (c) in question 2) = x M (p1 = 1, p2 = 2, 10) from part (a) of question 2
