8. Consumer surplus using utility curves Suppose Rina has an allowance of $44 to spend on movies and other goods each month (represented by hudget constraint CF). The following graph shows her initial utility (₁) at point A from spending $27 of her total allowance on three movies ($9 each) and the remaining $17 on other goods. Note: Select a point on the graph to see its coordinates.

As a result, she now spends all of her allowance on other goods, moving her to point At this paint, her utility is, it was at point A. Although her parents do not want her to see movies, they don't want to reduce the overall utility Rina gets from her allowance; therefore, they decide to increase her total monthly allowance by just enough to make her as happy as she was when she was allowed to see movies. This amount is represented by the distance between…
