1     60    150

2     50    140

3     40    120

4     30    100

5     20    80

6     10    70

7     5     50

8     0     20

Suppose that Ms. Thomson is currently exhausting her money income by purchasing 10 units of A and 8 units of B at prices of $2 and $4, respectively. The marginal utility of the last units of A and B are 16 and 24, respectively. These data suggest that Ms. Thomson

Multiple Choice

•      has preferences that are at odds with the principle of diminishing marginal utility.
•      considers A and B to be complementary goods.
•      should buy less A and more B.
•      should buy less B and more A.

Suppose Ryan and Rita were randomly shown the numbers 49 and 47, respectively, and then asked to estimate the price of an item about which they have relatively limited knowledge. According to findings from behavioral economics, we would expect

•      Ryan to estimate a price about the same as what Rita would estimate.
•      Ryan to estimate a price lower than what Rita would estimate.
•      the randomly shown numbers to have no influence on their estimates.
