Who determines how much utility an individual will receive from consuming a good?
Suppose Alphonsos town raises the price of bus tickets from 0.50 to 1 and file price of burgers rises from 2 to 4. Why is file opportunity cost of bus tickets unchanged? Suppose Alphonsns weekly spending money increases from 10 to 20. How is his budget constraint affected from all three changes? Explain.

If we have money, we buy goods and services to satisfy our needs. In economics, thesatisfaction that we get from the consumption of goods and services is called utility. Usea utility graph to explain what happen to the utility when you keep on increasing thenumber of units consumed. Also explain what happens to the utility when you keep onincreasing the number of units consumed. Also explain what happens to the additionalutility (i.e. additional satisfaction) when you increase your consumption by one unit
The table below demonstrates the total utility Terrence derives from eating differentquantities of plates of thanksgiving dinner. Calculate the marginal utility for each platethen graph the total utility and marginal utility (with total utility graph above the marginalutility graph – lining up the Qty).
Use this information to answer the following 4 questions: Marie has a weekly budget of $24,which she likes to spend on magazines and pies.24. If the price of a magazine is $4 each, what is the maximum number of magazines she couldbuy in a week?25. If the price of a pie is $12, what is the maximum number of pies she could buy in a week?26. Draw Marie’s budget constraint with pies on the horizontal axis and magazines on thevertical axis. What is the slope of the budget constraint?27. What is Marie’s opportunity cost of purchasing a pie? I need help with number 26 and 27.

The total utility (assumed measurable) of each good is independent of the rate of consumption of other goods. The prices of X and Y are, respectively, $20 and $30. If the consumer buys the fourth unit of X the Marginal Utility per Dollar Spent on X is 16 I If the consumer has $210 to spend on X and Y, the utility-maximizing bundle is The minimum budget necessary to move to a higher equilibrium consumption of X and Y is $ unit(s) of X and unit(s) of Y.
1) The local breakfast restaurant has a new offer: those who buy more than 10 sandwiches a month get a 50% discount on additional sandwiches. a b. Jack says he is not interested. In a different graph that includes his budget line before and after (again measure EOG on the Y axis and sandwich consumption on the X axis) and his preferences, show his sandwich consumption before and after. In your graph what indicates that he is NOT better off with this deal? Explain
