explain the difference between total utility and marginal utility
Total utility derived from consumption of a commodity by a consumer will be?
Will Be maximum when its marginal utility is Zero.
What are differences between marginal utility and total utility?
Topic Marginal Utility Total Utility 1. Definition Marginal utility is the extra satisfaction which a consumer gets from consuming additional units of goods. Total utility is the sum of total satisfaction of a consumer derives from consumption of a particular good. 2. Feature It can be negative. It can't be negative. 3. Sloping It is downward sloping. It is upward sloping.
What are the assumptions of cardinal utility approach?
Primarily cardinal utility approach has 5 assumptions. 1 rationality: the consumer is rational about his spending. 2 cardinal utility: the utility/satisfaction can be measured in cardinal NOs like 10, 8, 15, 20etc 3 constancy of money: The money of consumer must remain constant. 4 diminishing marginal utility: Marginal/additional utility of consumer decreases along with successive use of any commodity. 5 total utility: Total utility depends on quantity of commodity. 3
Total utility is maximized when?
You maximize utility when marginal utility divided by the price of product A is equal to the marginal utility divided by the price of product B. MUa/Pa=MUb/Pb or MUa/MUb= Pa/Pb

What will be the total utility derived from the consumption of a commodity by a consumer will be if marginal utility is zero?
i don't know the answer. i think it may be minimum or maximum.
Consumer equilibrium utility approach?
when does consumer attain equilibrium under the utility approach
How do households maximize utility?
Minimize usage.
What is average utility?
Average Utility is defined as the utility derived (or obttained) from the use of one unit of commodity. It is calculated by dividing the total number of utils by the number of units commodity is used by the consumer.
What will a rational consumer does?
A rational consumer is a consumer who hesitates to be satisfied with the little amount he has. A rational consumer, therefore tries to maximises inorder to get its total utility. He might not decide to draw a scale of preference because he has alimited resources.
What is the optimal consumption bundle formula for maximizing utility in economics?
The optimal consumption bundle formula for maximizing utility in economics is known as the consumer equilibrium condition, which states that the consumer should allocate their budget in such a way that the marginal utility per dollar spent is equal across all goods and services. This can be mathematically represented as: MU1/P1 MU2/P2 ... MUn/Pn where MU represents the marginal utility of each good, P represents the price of each good, and n represents the number of goods in the consumption bundle. By achieving this balance, the consumer can maximize their overall satisfaction or utility.
