Two goods are given, where x1 and x2 are the number of units of these goods. The preference structure of a consumer is given by the following (ordinal) utility function:

u (x1, x2) = x1 * x2

The indifference curves show a strictly convex course to the origin. The prices of the goods are given by p1 and p2. The consumer wants to achieve the level of utility ū with minimal expenditure.

  1. Determine the Hick’s demand function
  2. Please specify the output function e(p, ū). What exactly does it say?
  3. Now use Shepard’s lemma from the output function to determine the Hick’s demand functions.
