Umar has the utility function U(b,w) = min

Q: Answer-Umar has the utility function U(b,w) = min (b,w) and Akshat has the utility function U(b,w) = bw. If...

Can be verified after drawing IC for both

(b,w) and Akshat has the utility function U(b,w) = bw. If we draw an Edgeworth box with b on the horizontal axis and w on the vertical axis and if we measure Umar’s consumptions from the lower left corner of the box, then the contract curve contains

A A straight line running from the upper right corner of the box to the lower left.

B A curve that gets steeper as you move from left to right

C A straight line with slope ¼ passing through the upper right corner of the box

D A curve that gets flatter as you move from left to right
