Why does marginal utility decrease?

Law of diminishing marginal utility states that equal additions to a good provide smaller and smaller increases in total utility, therefore marginal utility decreases. Lets use apples for an example. The first apple is very satisfying and adds a lot of utility, say 100 total utility. If you have a second apple, it is less satisfying, and adds 80 to make 180 total utility. A third apple adds only 50 utility, to make 230 total. Total utility is increasing at a decreasing rate. Therefore, the marginal utility (satisfaction) between each apple is decreasing, which illustrates the law of diminishing marginal utility.

Explain the relationship between total utility and marginal utility?

Total Utility can mean the total amount of satisfaction gained from the purchase or consumption of a product. Marginal Utility is the amount of satisfaction gained from purchasing or consuming more of the same product. For Example: If you purchased two slices of Pizza, Your total utility would be the satisfaction you receive from consuming both slices. Your marginal utility would be the satisfaction you gained consuming an additional slice (i.e. The difference between consuming two slices versus one slice) Typically your marginal utility decreases as your consumption increases. For Example: If you have eight pizzas, one extra slice is not likely to bring you as much satisfaction as a second slice would if you only had one slice of pizza (as opposed to eight pizzas).

When does total utility decrease and marginal utility increase?

Total utility decreases when the consumption of a good exceeds a level where additional consumption leads to dissatisfaction or negative experiences. Marginal utility, which measures the additional satisfaction gained from consuming one more unit of a good, can increase in specific scenarios, such as when the consumption of a good is initially low and additional units provide greater satisfaction. However, generally, as more units are consumed, marginal utility tends to decline due to the law of diminishing marginal utility. Thus, a scenario where total utility decreases and marginal utility increases is uncommon and typically reflects unique circumstances or changes in consumer preferences.
