This utility function u(c) has the properties that it is strictly increasing and concave, u'(c) > 0, u"(c) < 0 (where u'(c) denotes the first derivative while u"(c) represents the second derivative) and satisfies the Inada condition lim.-→0 u'(c) approaches zero). The individual's lifetime utility is give by u(cı) + Bu(c2). In the first period of life, the individual has y1 units of income that can be either consumed or saved. In order to save, the individual must purchase bonds at a price of q units of the consumption good per bond. Each of these bonds returns a single unit of the consumption good in period 2. Total savings through bond purchases is s1 so that total expenditures on purchasing bonds is qs1. Let c1 denote the amount of consumption in period 1 chosen by the individual. In the second period of life, consumption in the amount c2 is financed out of the…arrow_forward
