The consumer choice is not restricted to the choice of consumptiongoods. In fact, it can apply to all our decisions that involve trade-offs. Suppose Mary has awage per hour of 10 euros. With her earned income she consumes. That isC=wH per day.She also decides how many hours to work of take leisure time each day.H=24-N, whereHis work and N is leisure. Her utility is given by （picture） Solve for the optimal decision of labor/leisure. Plot the budget constraint and the indif-ferent curve. What is the labor supply function?

Form Utility

The term utility in general refers to the satisfaction earned from usage of a particular product or service. Utility always plays an important role because it influences various important elements like demand & thereby the price of the good or service as well. Though utility is not easy to measure, various types of economic models can be used indirectly. There can be various types of utilities like economic utility, marginal utility, cardinal utility, form utility.
