- If we have money, we buy goods and services to satisfy our needs. In economics, thesatisfaction that we get from the consumption of goods and services is called utility. Usea utility graph to explain what happen to the utility when you keep on increasing thenumber of units consumed. Also explain what happens to the utility when you keep onincreasing the number of units consumed. Also explain what happens to the additionalutility (i.e. additional satisfaction) when you increase your consumption by one unitarrow_forwardWhen given the marginal utility of the first five units of a product, we can calculate the total utility by a. finding the difference between the fourth and fifth units. b. finding the difference between the first and fifth units. c. looking at the marginal utility of the fifth unit. d. adding the fourth and fifth units. e. adding the marginal utilities of the first five unitsarrow_forwardimpacts of marginal utility.
