Question:
5.8 Suppose the utility function for goods X and Y is given by utility U(X, Y) XY Y.
a. Calculate the uncompensated (Marshallian) demand functions for X and Y and describe how the demand curves for X and Y are shifted by changes in I or in the price of the other good.
b. Calculate the expenditure function for X and Y.
c. Use the expenditure function calculated in part
(b) to compute the compensated demand functions for goods X and Y. Describe how the compensated demand curves for X and Y are shifted by changes in income or by changes in the prices of the other good.
