The table above refers to Elizabeth's utility schedule of Product A and Product B. The equilibrium price of Product A and Product B is $1 and $5 respectively. If Elizabeth has only $11 to spend on both goods, how many units of Product A will she consume if her goal is to maximize her utility?
Optimal condition is attained where MU of A / Price of A = MU of B / Price of B and budget constraint is satisfied.
MU of A / Price of A = MU of B / Price of B = 6 at 6 units of A and 1 unit of B
Budget line: PA.A + PB.B = Income
1A + 5B = 11
A + 5B = 11
Total cost of consuming 6 units of A and 1 unit of B = 1 x 6 + 5 x 1 = 11 = Income
So, Elizabeth will consume 6 units of A and 1 unit of B to maximize her utility.
