Get started for freeWhat is true of the marginal utility per dollar spent on a stomach pacemaker compared with the marginal utility per dollar of food consumed during that interval?
If the fee charged to a client for legal service is per hour and the marginal utility from that service is units of additional utility, what is the client's hourly marginal utility per dollar for other purchased items?
The marginal utility that an individual would experience if she were to consume the first unit of a digital app is 15 utils, and the marginal utility that she would experience if she were to consume a second unit is 18 utils. If one app is the amount that the individual decides to consume, what is the person's total utility?
You determine that your daily consumption of soft drinks is and your daily consumption of tacos is when the prices per unit are cents and , respectively. Explain what happens to your consumption bundle, and, after your consumption choices adjust, to the marginal utility of soft drinks and the marginal utility of tacos, when the price of soft drinks rises to cents.
Suppose that at a higher satisfaction level than in Problem F-3, Sue's constant-utility preferences are as shown in the table below. Calculate the slope of Sue's new budget constraint using the information peovided in Problem F-5. Supposing now that the price of a soft drink falls to , find the combination of goods that satisfies Sue's utility-maximization problem in light of her budget constraint.
