- Alex, who was convinced that "Football is coming home", was very excited for the World Cup last year. Unfortunately, he realized that his favourite Paul Gascoigne jersey from Euro 1996 was getting old, so he wanted to buy a new one before England's first game the following week. He could either buy a 2014 James Milner shirt from retailer A, which would make him totally happy (utility=1), or a 2006 David Beckham shirt from retailer B, which gives him a utility of 0.8. However, the shirts are not available today. There is a 50% chance that retailer A will have the shirt on the week-end, and 70% chance that retailer B will have theirs on the week-end. Due to time and work constraints, Alex can only visit one of these retailers before the tournament starts, otherwise he will have to keep his old 1996 shirt, which gives him a utility of 0.5. He can also ask his friend Nathan to check both places in the morning. But being a Welsh supporter, Nathan will not do it for free and wants some…Jeremy is deeply in love with Jasmine. Jasmine lives where cell phone coverage is poor, so he can either call her on the land-line phone for five cents per minute or he can drive to see her, at a round-trip cost of $2 in gasoline money.

To make his preferred choice, Jeremy uses a handy utilimometer that measures his total utility from personal visits and from phone minutes.

- Donuts are a big thing in Portland, OR. You go into one of the many donut establishments to purchase some number of these tasty (and even vegan or gluten free if required) treats. Let's say that the first donut has higher utility for you, so you are willing to pay up to $2 for it. For the second donut you are willing to pay $1.50, the third $1, a fourth $0.50 and the fifth $0.00. This particular bakery in Portland charges an average of $1 per donut. If you are a rational buyer (which can be hard when faced with so many different delicious donuts) then how many donuts do you purchase, and how much consumer surplus (i.e., money saved compared to what you were willing to spend) do you have? O 4 donuts, $5 O 2 donuts, $5 O 3 donuts, $1.50 O 1 donut, $0.50Explain utility and its connection to consumer behaviorMarginal utility can also become negative True/False

U=x°y°: Px =2, py = 3, 1 = 60 (x³y³ + o) The values that maximize U are x = and y = (Simplify your answers.)"Wants are not limitless. This can be proven.
