Answer:
A) Janice will purchase 3 pounds of potatoes since she will buy them until her consumer surplus ≤ 0. The fourth pound of potatoes costs $1, and Janice is willing to pay only $0.30, so her consumer surplus s negative (-$0.70).
Consumer surplus is the difference between the price that a customer is willing and able to pay for a good and the good actual price.
B) If Janice only had $2 to spend, she would buy 2 pounds of potatoes, since her consumer surplus is positive at 2 pounds.
first pound costs $1, and Janice is willing to pay $1.50, consumer surplus = $0.50
second pound costs $1, and Janice is willing to pay $1.14, consumer surplus = $0.14
