Answer:
False
Explanation:
In a competitive market, if production (and consumption) continues until the marginal benefit of one more unit equals marginal cost, then total surplus is maximized.
As for any extra unit produced
Marginal Benefit > Marginal cost = Surplus
Marginal Benefit = Marginal cost = No Surplus / No loss
Marginal Benefit > Marginal cost = loss
When your Marginal benefit is maximum and Marginal cost is minimum then the surplus will be maximized.
Most efficient situation in which benefit is maximum and the cost is minimum results in maximized surplus.
Answer: <em>$4. 71 hamburger and $6.29 French fries.
</em>
Explanation:
Total spendable income of Antonio = $11.00
1 hamburger = $1.50
1 order of French fries = $1.00
Utility maximization function: U(x1, x2) = x1x2 i.e. 1 hamburger and 2 orders of French fries
Using the Utility maximization function: U(x1, x2) = $1.50 + $2.00
= $3.50 per lunch
Therefore the customer will purchase hamburger worth of $(1.50 x 11.00/3.50) = $4. 71
And French fries orders worth of $(2.00 x 11.00/3.50) = $6.29
<em>Antonio will maximize his satisfaction by purchasing $4. 71 hamburger and $6.29 French fries.
</em>
