Answer: C beyond a certain point, total utility decreases as income rises
- Diminishing marginal utility means that beyond certain point, the total utility from consuming a good decreases, and increasing its consumption monotonically, makes that every additional unit of consumption delivers less utility each time.
- This is because most behavioral consumers models try to emulate the principle of scarcity: the less available units of a good, the more it values.
- Then, an increasing income would allow us to buy more and more goods, and because of the existance of diminishing marginal utility, we would get less utility from consuming additional units of every goods each time.
- As an <u>example</u>,one could think about eating chocolate. The first bar would give us much happiness (utility), but increasing the number of bars consumed would eventually vanish this "happiness".

Answer:
$8 million
Explanation:
Weighted-average cost = [(4,000,000 × $22) + (2,000,000 × $25)] ÷ (4,000,000 + 2,000,000) = $23
Increase in paid-in capital - share repurchase per share = selling price —Weighted-average cost = $27 - $23 = $4
Amount of increase in paid-in capital—share repurchase = Number of treasury shares × $4 = 2 million × $4 = $8 million
Therefore, Cox’s paid-in capital - share repurchase will increase by $8 million.
