A consumer can get maximum satisfaction where the _________ are same.
Total utility and Marginal utility
Price of a commodity and Marginal utility
Price of a commodity and Total utility
Marginal Utility
When MRS is constant x and y are :
Not related
Perfect Substitutes
Perfect Complements
Inferior Goods
The formula of marginal utility is
MUn - 1 - MU1
TUn - TUn - 1
TU/MU
TU × MU
Consumer's equilibrium is a situation in which a consumer can get _______ satisfaction from his current level of income.
Maximum
Minimum
No
Less
Diminishing MRS means :
Consumer wants to give up lesser units of y in exchange for good x
Consumer wants to give up more units of y in exchange for good x
Consumer wants to give up same unit of y in exchange for good x
Consumer wants to give up more units of x in exchange for good y
Smoothness of indifference curve means
X and Y are substitutes of each other
X and Y can be consumed in fixed proportion
Perfect divisibility of two goods
Perfect non divisibility of two goods
Which of the following statements is NOT true of indifference curves?
They exhibit higher levels of utility as you move from the origin
They are convex to the origin
They are downward sloping
They could intersect
In Economics the term utility means
Sorrow
Enjoyment
Satisfaction
Development
Decreasing slope of indifference curve is explained by
Law of diminishing marginal returns
Law of diminishing MRS
Law of demand
Law of constant MRS
An indifference curve shows combinations of two goods that:
Could be available to the consumer in a given time period
Would provide the consumer with the same level of satisfaction
A consumer could buy with their given income
Could provide the consumer with similar levels of satisfaction
