Consider the following indirect utility function (maximum value function), V (p₁, p2, m) m VP1 + P2 where p₁ is the price of a goodx₁, P2 is the price of a good a2, and m is the income. (a) Find the demand function for at (p1, p2, m) and (p₁, p2, m). Now, assume (P₁, P2, m) = (1, 1, 12) for the following questions. (b) What is the optimal choice of ₁ and 2 at these prices and income? (c) Now, the price of good, has increased while p2 and m remain the same. Calculate the change of ₁, i.e, axi ? ap1 Consider the following indirect utility function (maximum value function), V (p₁, p2, m) m VP1 + P2 where p₁ is the price of a goodx₁, P2 is the price of a good a2, and m is the income.
