1. In a situation where the consumption go up from 0 to 1, this means that total utility will from 0 to 25.

Therefore the , marginal utility will be 25 (25 – 0).

2. Total utility will be 42(25+17)

3. Marginal utility will be 12 (54-42)

4. The total utility for quantity of 5 is 66, while the marginal utility is 4.

Hence the total utility will be 62 (66 – 4) while marginal utility will be 4(12-8)

6. Total utility will be 65(66-1)

B. Based on( A )above Marco already has two candy bars, which gave him a total utility of 42 this means that when we Add soda his utility would increase to 64 (42 + 22)

And in a situation where he consumes four candy bars which is 2 candy bars + another 2 extra candy bars this means his utility will be only 62.

Based on this Soda will be the preferred one
