1/2 Consider a consumer with the utility function u (x1, x2) = x₁¹ + x2. Suppose the cost of producing good x1 is given by the cost function c(x1) and the price of good x2 is $1. Illustrate that the solution to the social planner's problem in terms of production of x1 is equivalent to the perfectly competitive market outcome.
