Alice's utility is given by u4 (xf, xf) = 2 ln xf + In æ£ , while Bob's utility is uB(xf, x}) = ln xf + 2 ln x? . Suppose that the social planner considers it to be imperative that agent B consumes exactly one uni of good 1 and four units of good 2. Although the social planner can not force the individuals to a particular consumption, they can enforce transfers of good 1 between the consumers (transfers of good 2 are not enforceable by the social planner). What transfer of good 1 would guarantee that in the resulting competitive Walrasian equilibrium consumer B consumes one unit of good 1 and four units of good 2? Answer this please Select one: O a. One half unit of good 1 has to be transferred from agent A to agent B. O b. There is no endowment for which agent B would consume x = 1 and x = 4 in the corresponding competitive equilibrium. Therefore, no such transfers exist. О с. One unit of good 1 has to be transferred from agent A to agent B. O d. Transferring good 1 is not sufficient. It is necessary to transfer one unit of good 2 from agent A to agent B.
