- A consumer has a budget set aside for entertainment during the year, and they spend the budget on concerts and plays. The consumer has a strong preference for attending concerts over plays: the two activities are substitutes, but not very strong substitutes. Sketch the indifference curves for this consumer on a graph, with concert tickets on the vertical axis and play tickets on the horizontal axis. Briefly explain why the consumer might ultimately choose to purchase a large number of play tickets, even though they have a strong preference for concerts. Include a budget line on your graph to illustrate this case.arrow_forwardWhat is marginal utilityarrow_forwardExplain and differentiate preference and utility.arrow_forward
