The following table indicates Sharona’s marginal utilities from the additional consumption of goods A and B. The first and third columns of the table show the quantities of goods A and B consumed. The second and the fourth columns show Sharona’s marginal utilities from each additional unit of goods A and B consumed. The price of A is $2 per unit, and the price of B is $4 per unit. If Sharona’s budget is $12, then what consumer equilibrium combinations would maximize her total utility? Table 6.6 QA MUA QB MUB 1 24 1 48 2 22 2 44 3 18 3 36 4 12 4 24
