The marginal benefit from a good is the OA. opportunity cost of producing B. benefit received from consuming one more unit of the good. Draw three points. Plot the marginal benefit when the quantity of sunscreen is 10, 25, and 40 gallons. Draw the marginal benefit curve. Label it MB. When Yucatan achieves allocative efficiency, marginal benefit equals pounds of food per month.
