- The graph of the budget line below has dollars on the vertical axis and food on the horizontal axis. Which statement is false? D 100 Food The vertical intercept represents all money available for purchasing. The distance OA shows the amount of money spent on OD amount of food. If the amount of money available is known in this graph, then the absolute and relative price of food is known also. The horizontal intercept represents all the food the consumer could purchase with the budget available.The table shows Jill’s utility schedule for pancakes and coffee # pancakes total utility from pancakes MU from last pancake # cups of coffee total utility from coffee MU from last cup of coffee 1 10 10 1 12 12 2 18 2 22 3 24 3 30 4 28 4 36 5 30 5 40 6 30 6 42 Suppose that the price of pancakes is $2/pancake, and the price of coffee is $2/cup.
