What is the difference between total utility and marginal​ utility?
Whitepunk [10]
The main difference between total utility and marginal utility is that total utility refers to the total amount of satisfaction the consumer receives from a good. Marginal utility is the added satisfaction they receive from consuming an idiot unit of the same good. 
We all buy something and hope to feel satisfied from purchasing that good, that is essentially what total and marginal utility are measuring. This allows economists and businesses to track how satisfied consumers are from consumption of a product.

babunello [35]

To get the break-even point, the Total Cost must equal to the Total Revenue or Profit. The Total Cost is the sum of Fixed Costs and Incremental Costs. Fixed costs are depreciation, advertising and insurance which is equal to $5,871 per month. Incremental Costs are weed and feed materials, direct labor, and fuel which is equal to $32 per lawn. The Marginal Revenue is equal to $89 per lawn. Letting “N” to be the break-even point in number of lawns, the break-even equation becomes: $5,871 + $32N = $89N. Then calculating N, the break-even number of lawns is equal to 103.
