Let the following table represents the total utility of a given consumer, in the cardinal utility approach
A) Calculate the MUx and MUy and fill the table in the 4th and 5th rows. B) If the two products (X&Y) are free goods how many of X and Y should the cons
consumer
take to maximize utility?
C) What is the maximum utility of X and Y if they are free?.
D) Assuming the consumer has any amount of money (enough budget) how many of X and Y should the consumer buy, to maximize utility?
E) What is the total utility of X and Y?
F) Let now price of X is 4 birr per unit and price of Y is 2 birr per unit and budget of the consumer for consumption of X and Y is 20 birr. Given budget constraint how many
of X and Y should the consumer buy to maximize utility?
G) What are the total utility of X and Y
