What to Focus On

  • Utility is the satisfaction derived from consuming a good or service.
  • It is subjective and varies between individuals.
  • Utility is not the same as usefulness or ethical value.
  • Cardinal Utility: Utility measured in numbers (e.g., 10, 20, 30 units).
  • Ordinal Utility: Utility expressed in rankings (e.g., 1st, 2nd, 3rd preference).
  • Cardinal approach is associated with Alfred Marshall.
  • Form Utility: Created by changing the shape or form of a product.
  • Place Utility: Created by moving goods to where they are needed.
  • Time Utility: Created by making goods available at the right time.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Marginal Utility (MU) is the same as Total Utility (TU).

The Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility means total utility always decreases after a point.

When MU is zero, the consumer stops consuming immediately.
