Scenario 1: Consider utility functions u1(x,y)=2x if y/x>2, max{x,y} if y/x∈[1/2,2], and 2y if y/x<1/2; and u2(x,y)=2x if y/x>2, x+y if y/x∈[1/2,2], and 2y if y/x<1/2. Let px>0 and py>0 be the prices of goods x and y, and let w>0 denote wealth (income). Let mi(px,py,w) denote the set of Marshallian demands for utility ui and let vi(px,py,w)=ui∘mi(px,py,w). Then:
