Answer:

Mrs. Simpson should buy less bread and more milk.

Explanation:

Besides the nutritional differences between bread and milk, Mrs. Simpson is not buying the utility-maximizing combination of bread and milk.

When she purchases bread, she is paying $1 for 80 utils, that means that the marginal cost of every util is 1.25¢.

When she purchases milk, she is paying $0.80 for 70 utils, that means that the marginal cost of every util is 1.14¢.

So the marginal cost per additional util is lower for milk.

The determination of the productivity of the inputs utilised in the manufacturing process is a critical component of management
Klio2033 [76]

The significance of Total product, Average product, and Marginal product is that they show how effective, and efficient a manufacturing process is.

<h3>How do these metrics show productivity?</h3>

Taking the labor component in production as an example, one can see the impact of these metrics.

The total product will show just how much goods and services in total that the given amount of labor was able to produce. This gives management an idea of the effectiveness of the labor in producing goods and services.

The average product then shows how efficient labor is because it gives an idea of the products produced per labor.

Marginal product is very important as well because it helps management to know when to stop hiring labor. This point will be the production level that sees the marginal product being less than the cost of hiring additional labor.

These three metrics are therefore important to management because they help to determine effectiveness, efficiency, and cost of production.
