Marginal benefit equal to marginal cost is the point where consumers are maximizing their satisfaction within their budget. B. The marginal benefit is equal to the marginal utility you obtain from consuming one extra unit of the good. C. What matters for consumers when they want to decide to buy one more unit of a good is how much utility they got from all the units they consumed before. D. Elasticity can be related to the measure of a percentage change in quantity demanded divided by the percentage change in the price of a good.The following table shows Ellie's utility from consuming slices of cake and cans of 7- Up. 5- Marginal Utility from Last Slice Slices Cans Marginal Utility from Last Can 4.5- of of Cake 7- Up 4- - 120 100 1 120 3.5- 2 60 3- 80 45 4 60 4 30 2.5- 40 5 20 6. 20 6 15 2- Suppose Ellie has $3 per week to spend on cake and 7- Up and that the price of a slice of cake is $0.50. 1.5- 1- 1.)
