Assume that product Alpha and product Beta are both priced at $1 per unit and that Ellie has $20 to spend on Alpha and Beta. She buys 8 units of Alpha and 12 units of Beta. The marginal utilities of the last unit of Alpha and Beta that she purchases are 40 utils and 20 utils, respectively. This indicates thatMultiple ChoiceEllie should make no change in consumption.given another dollar, Ellie should buy an additional unit of Beta.in order to maximize utility, Ellie should buy more Beta and less Alpha.in order to maximize utility, Ellie should buy more Alpha and less Beta.

A consumer with a limited income will maximize utility when each good is purchased in amounts such that theMultiple Choicetotal utility is the same for each good in a bundle.marginal utility of each good in a bundle is maximized.marginal utility per dollar spent on each of the final choices in a bundle is equal.marginal utility per dollar spent on each of the final choices in a bundle is maximized for each good.

Use the following information to answer the question below. Cloe is given $4 of pocket money to be spent on either hard candies or chocolates.

When a person consumes two goods (A and B), that person's utility is maximized when the budget is allocated such that:Group of answer choicesthe marginal utility of A equals the marginal utility of B.the marginal utility of A times the price of A equals the marginal utility of B times the price of Bthe ratio of total utility of A to the price of A equals the ratio of the marginal utility of B to the price of B.the ratio of the marginal utility of A to the price of A equals the ratio of the marginal utility of B to the price of B.

For a consumer, the marginal utility of good A is 25 and its price is $5. The marginal utility of good B is 60 and its price is $12. The consumer has allocated his entire budget. Is this consumer maximizing his total utility? Explain your answer
