Marginal Utility = Change in Total Utility / Change in Quantity
MUL/PL = Marginal utility of lattes / Price of latte
MUPB/PPB = Marginal utility of Paperback books / Price of Paperback book
Utility is maximized where these following two conditions are fulfilled.
So from the above table MUL/PL = MUPB/PPB at 2 units of Lattes and 2 units of Paperback books.
Now we will check whether it is fulfilling the budget equation or not?
Budget equation
2L x 4PB = 12
Where
L = Units of Lattes
PB = Units of Paperback books
At 2 units of Lattes and 2 units of Paperback books.
2(2) x 4(2) = 12
4 + 8 = 12
Hence this bundle is fulfilling the budget equation.

10. Deriving demand from an indifference map Beth lives in San Diego and enjoys drinking lattes and eating scones. The price of a latte is held constant at $4 throughout this problem. On the following graph, the purple curves (I and Is) represent two of Beth's indifference curves. The lines BC and BC, show two budget constraints. Points X and Y show Beth's optimum consumption bundles subject to these budget constraints. ? 20 18 16 14 12 LATTES 10 8...
