Question

just subpart g.
is the agents maximally using their endowments and market conditions to optimize their utilities without any possibility of mutual further improvement?

There are 2 future states 01 and 02. The probability of 01 and 02 eventuating are #1 and T2 respectively. Endowments differ by state. There are two agents with utility function U(c) = co+1 ln(ci) + 2 ln(c2) There are 2 zero net supply AD securities (i.e. (1,0) and (0,1)). Denote demand for these securities as where k is agent 1 or 2 and i is state 1 or 2. Assume the following: Agent 1 4 Agent 2 4 C01 C02 1 5 7 2 0.4 0.6 Answer the following: (a) Set up the maximization problem for both agents. (b) Take the FOCs with respect to z, z, 2, and 3. (c) Solve for optimal zł, z, zỉ, and z. (d) Solve for qi and q2. (e) What are the post trade allocations? (f) What is the expected utility of both agents post and pre-trade. (g) Are the post trade allocations Pareto Optimal? Why?
