During a study session for an economics exam with three other students, Peter Daltry commented on an example of a consumer who had to decide on number of slices of pizza and cups of Coca-Cola he would consume. Peter explained that "To maximize his utility this consumer must equate the marginal utility per dollar for pizza and Coca-Cola." Was Peter's analysis correct?


◦

Peter's statement is correct.


◦

Peter describes one of the conditions necessary for utility maximization. The second condition is that total spending on both goods must equal the amount available to be spent.


◦

Peter described one of the conditions necessary for utility maximization. The consumer also must equate the marginal utility of pizza and the marginal utility of cups of Coca-Cola.


◦

Peter's statement is correct but we must also assume that the consumer is rational.
