The table below shows the marginal utility from consuming mini pizzas and sodas. If pizzas and soda are the only goods and the price of a mini pizza is S and the price of a soda is $.50, how many of each will maximize utility if you have $4 for lunch? Part A Number of Pizzas Marginal Utility Number of Sodas Marginal Utility 10 1. 6. 2. 4. 1. 4.

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.

Lisa consumes only two goods, pizzas and burritos. In equilibrium, her marginal utility per slice of pizza is 10 and her marginal utility per burrito is 8. Instructions: Enter your answer rounded to two decimal places. If a slice of pizza costs $3, then the price of a burrito must be $

Larry and Teri allocate their consumption between two goods: hats and bats. The price of hats is €5 each, and the price of bats is €10 each. For Larry, the marginal utility of the last hat consumed was 8, and the marginal utility of the last bat was 24. For Teri, the marginal utility of the last hat was 6, and the marginal utility of the last bat was 12. Which consumer is not maximizing his/her utility? How can you tell? How should he/she change their allocation?
