Question

write example of total utility and marginal utility with proper diagram​

Answer 1

Answer:

Utility is the satisfaction that a person derives from the consumption of a good or service. Total utility is the total satisfaction received from consuming a given total quantity of a good or service, while marginal utility is the satisfaction gained from consuming an additional quantity of a particular good or service. Sometimes, economists like to subdivide utility into individual units that they call utils. However, because utility is subjective, meaning that it differs from person to person, and because it varies continuously, depending on the quantity consumed, an util cannot actually be measured, but is simply a heuristic device that allows economists to talk about the degree of satisfaction of a product or service.

Marginal utility always declines for each successive quantity of consumption. If you like ice cream, and you eat one scoop, the first scoop will provide the greatest satisfaction. If you eat another scoop, you'll probably enjoy that also, but the satisfaction will be less than for the first. At some point, you will not want any more ice cream. The marginal utility will drop to zero and may even become negative. This is an everyday illustration of the law of diminishing marginal utility. Marginal utility declines for everything, including money. Although many people want to amass great wealth, each dollar accumulated becomes worth less and less, because the marginal utility of what it can buy declines.
