What is the equi-marginal principle?
We will use the utility theory to explain consumer demand and to understand the nature of demand curves. For this purpose, we need to know the condition under which I, as a consumer, am most satisfied with my market basket of consumption goods. We say that a consumer attempts to maximize his or her utility, which means that the consumer chooses the most preferred of goods from what is available. Can we see what a rule for such an optimal decision would be? Certainly I would not expect that the last egg I am buying bring exactly the same marginal utility as the last pair of shoes I am buying, for shoes cost much more per unit than eggs. A more sensible rule would be: If good A costs twice as much as good B, then buy good A only when its marginal utility is at least twice as great as good B's marginal utility. This leads to the equimarginal principle that I should arrange my consumption so that every single good is bringing me the same marginal utility per dollar of expenditure. In such a situation, I am attaining maximum satisfaction or utility from my purchases. This is clear concept of equimarginal principle.

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 does maximize utility mean?
satisfaction or pleasure one gains from consuming a product or service or from taking an action.
Suppose the MUP for bottled water is greater than the MUP for chips To maximize total utility the consumer should buy?
chips
When there is one scarce resource the product that should be produced first is the product the with highest?
marginal utility. By producing the product with the highest marginal utility first, the producer can maximize the overall benefit generated from the limited resource.
Can you explain the concept of marginal utility and how it influences decision-making in economics?
Marginal utility is the additional satisfaction or benefit gained from consuming one more unit of a good or service. In economics, decision-making is influenced by marginal utility because individuals tend to allocate their resources towards goods or services that provide the highest marginal utility relative to their cost. This means that people will continue consuming a good or service until the marginal utility no longer outweighs the cost, helping them maximize their overall satisfaction or utility.
