Question
Consider an exchange economy with two agents, 1 and 2,
and two goods, X and Y. Each agent's consumption set is in +R2. The endowments of agents 1 and 2 are (10, 1) and (0, 9) respectively. In any commodity bundle, the first entry is the quantity of X, and the second entry is the quantity of Y. If a>c, or a=c and b>d, then Agent 1 strictly prefers bundle (a,b) to (c,d). If b>d, or b=d and a>c, then Agent 2 strictly prefers bundle (a,b) to (c,d). Which of the following allocations is a competitive equilibrium allocation?Solution
A competitive equilibrium allocation is one where no agent can be made better off without making the other agent worse off, given their initial endowments and preferences.
- Agent 1 prefers bundles with more of good X (and possibly good Y), while Agent 2 has a preference for bundles with more of good Y (and possibly good X).
- The initial endowments (10,1) for Agent 1 and (0,9) for Agent 2 align with their preferences, making the initial distribution optimal.
- Any redistribution would leave at least one agent worse off, thereby violating the conditions for a competitive equilibrium.
