Net Demands
p1=2, p2=3, x1*-ω1 = -3 and x2*-ω2 = +2 so p1(x1 − ω1) + p2(x2 − ω2 ) =
2 × ( −3) +
3× 2
= 0.
The purchase of 2 extra good 2 units at $3 each is funded by giving up 3 good 1 units at $2 each.
Budget Constraints Revisited
So, given p1 and p2, the budget constraint for a consumer with an endowment (ω1,ω2 ) is
p1x1 + p2x2 = p1ω1 + p2ω2.
{(x1, x2 ) p1x1 + p2x2 ≤ p1ω1 + p2ω2,
ω
Endowments
E.g. ω = (ω1,ω2 ) = (10,2) states that the consumer is endowed with 10 units of good 1 and 2 units of good 2. What is the endowment’s value? For which consumption bundles may it be exchanged?
y = p1ω1 + p2ω2
Labor Supply
The worker’s budget constraint is
pcC = w(R − R) + m
where C, R denote gross demands for the consumption good and for leisure. That is

Some Results about Price Change
If a consumer is a net seller of a good, when the price of the good decreases, if she remains a buyer then the consumer is worse off. If a consumer if a net buyer of a good, when the price decreases, the consumer will remain a buyer and be better off.

The constraint

is
p1(x1 − ω1) + p2(x2 − ω2 ) = 0.
That is, the sum of the values of a 净需求） consumer’s net demands （净需求） is zero.
