The combinations of X1 and X2 that fulfill the necessary conditions of consumer equilibrium are:
Q1: X1=10, X2=10
Q2: X1=9, X2=11
Q3: X1=8, X2=12
Q4: X1=7, X2=13
Q5: X1=6, X2=14
Q6: X1=5, X2=15
The consumer’s equilibrium purchase size is X1=7 and X2=13.
1= Assume an individual has 20 birr to spend on two products: X1 and X2 each with market price of 2(two) birr. If the total utility the consumer generates from the two products is as given on the table below,
1.1= Select all combinations of X1 and X2 that fulfill the necessary conditions of consumer equilibrium, and from them identify the consumer’s equilibrium purchase size
