The marginal benefit of an extra dollar of income falls as income rises. c. The total utility gained from a small income is higher than the total utility gained from a high income. d. The total utility gained from a high income is higher than the total utility gained from a low income.

According to the law of diminishing marginal utility, marginal utility of a good declines as more of it is consumed in a given time period. According to this law, which of the following statement is true? a. The more I go to school, the more I want to do something else b.

What should the consumer do for  purchases to maximize total utility   A. purchasing more clothes and less food B. purchasing more of both commodities C. purchasing less of both commodities D. purchasing more food and less clothes

Bob consumes food and housing. Suppose his marginal utility from an additional unit of food is 20 and his marginal utility from an additional unit of housing is 180. Furthermore, suppose the price of a unit of food is $1.00 and the price of a unit of housing is $2.00. Can Bob increase his utility without changing his total expenditures on food and housing? Holding expenditures constant, A. Bob can increase utility by spending more on food and less on housing. B. Bob can increase utility by spending more on food and the same amount on housing. C. Bob can increase utility by spending less on food and more on housing. D. Bob cannot increase his utility. E. Bob can increase utility by spending more on food and more on housing.

6. A consumer has an expenditure function given by E = Ū(P+). When the consumer has an income of 100, it can reach a maximum utility of 20. The price of x increases by 3 and the consumer's income increases by 25. Are they better off or worse off than before the changes? Explain how you know. Full solution please

Question 5     Andrew is currently spending all his income on 2 goods, burgers and Pepsi. He buys burgers at 4 L.E. a unit, with a total utility of 1000 and a marginal utility of 24. He buys Pepsi at 1 L.E a unit with a total utility of 800 and a marginal utility of 18. In order of reach consumer equilibrium, he should consume:            The same amount of burgers and Pepsi.            More Pepsi but the same amount of burgers.            More Pepsi and less burgers.            More burgers but the same amount of Pepsi.            More burgers and less Pepsi.
