1 Jon Riley F Maimization wit a single constraint F5 Eercises Eercise : Roinson Crusoe wo is marooned on an isl in te Sout Pacific He can grow ananas coconuts If e uses z acres to produce ananas z acres of l to produce coconuts, te outputs of ananas coconuts are A z / A z / Tere are ˆ acres of usale l Roinson Crusoe s preferences are represented y te utility function U f ( ) (a) Sustitute for in te utility function so otain a stard one constraint maimization prolem for te maimization of Roinson Crusoe s utility () If ˆ 8 A (4,), solve for te optimal inputs outputs Eercise : Equilirium on te isl Continue wit te data for Eercise wit ˆ 8 A (4,) Let te output price vector e p ( p, p) let te input price e r Since scaling up all tree prices y a common factor as no effect on production or consumption coices, we are free to coose one of te tree prices Let te input price e r Roinson is te owner of ot firms He acts as a price taker cooses inputs outputs to maimize te profit of ot firms (a) Solve for te input dems z ( p ) outputs y ( p ) Hence sow tat for te input market to clear 6 p p () Sow tat te profit-maimizing supply of output is y( p) 8 p
2 9 August 07 (c) Sow tat te total value of te output produced y te two firms is W p y ( p) p y ( p) 8p p Crusoe, now wit is consumption at on, must coose a consumption undle to maimize is utility His udget constraint is terefore p p W (d) As consumer e also acts as a price taker Sow tat e will spend alf of is wealt on commodity Hence sow tat is dem for commodity is ( p) (8 p p ) p (e) Sow tat for te market for output to clear, 6p p (f) Solve for te equilirium output prices ence te equilirium allocation (g) Compare it wit your answer to te previous eercise Remark: It may seem silly to tink of Roinson Crusoe as a price taker since e surely knows tat e is selling commodities to imself But if we were to assume tat tere was a Roinson Crusoe on eac of N isls eac produced te two commodities, te idea of trading wit no individual trade aving an effect on prices no longer seems unreasonale if N is large enoug If in fact te tecnology on eac isl is te same, te equilirium is te same as in te one isl case Eercise : Market equilirium wit Roinson Crusoe Friday Roinson s plantation produces ananas Te production function is q (6 z ) Roinson / as 8 endowment of units of te input (l) Friday s plantation produces coconuts Te production function is q ( z ) / Friday also as 8 units of l Te two individuals ave te same utility function
3 9 August 07, {, } F F u R F Friday s is u ( )( ) (a) If te output price vector is p individual as wealt W sow tat is dem for commodity is W p () Hence eplain wy, for tis utility function, market dem is te same as te dem of a R F single agent wit te same preferences wealt W W W Tus te equilirium prices outputs in tis two agent economy are te same as in an economy in wic tere is one representative agent (c) Solve for te market clearing prices in te representative agent economy (d) In te agent two plantation economy ow many anana coconuts are traded? (e) Suppose Friday only as 4 units of l wile Roinson as How muc l will Friday rent from Roinson in order to produce more coconuts? Eercise 4: Division of a firm wit a udget constraint A firm can produce output r Te division manager is given q f () z z z using te input vector witout violating te udget constraint r z r z z Te input price vector is dollars instructed to maimize output, q f () z Solution: Te sadow profit is L ( z, ) z z ( ) Since revenue is zero if z 0, te profit-maimizing inputs must e strictly positive FOC L ( z, ) z r 0 z L ( z, ) zz r 0 z
