Utility

  • Rational consumer behavior is the desire to extract maximum utility for oneself.
  • Is utility an objective or subjective property?
  • Slide 4

    Quantitative approach

    Subjective assessment of the usefulness of goods in conventional units (yutil).

    Slide 5

    Marginal utility (MU - marginalutility)

    Increase in total utility by one additional unit of good (the last, additional).

    Slide 6

    The law of diminishing marginal utility

    As the volume of consumption of the good grows, its marginal utility decreases (and vice versa).

    Slide 7

    Utility maximization rule

    The rational consumer seeks to obtain maximum utility for every ruble of income.

    Slide 8

    Budget line

    • A line showing all the options for purchasing a set of two goods at the same cost.
    • Can the position of the budget line change?
  • Slide 9

    Consumer balance

  • Slide 17

    Living standard (well-being)

    Human development index

    It was proposed in 1990 by United Nations experts to assess the level of human development achieved in various countries.

    Slide 21

    HDI meters

    • Health and longevity determined by life expectancy;
    • Education, defined by a combination of two indicators - adult literacy and population coverage by three levels of education (primary, secondary and higher);
    • The material standard of living, determined by the value of real GDP per capita, i.e. the value converted into dollars using purchasing power parity.
  • Slide 22

    HDI calculation method

    • Achievements in each of these three areas are first evaluated as a percentage of some ideal, not yet achieved situation in any country:
    • Life expectancy of 85 years;
    • Literacy and coverage of the population with education at all three levels at the level of 100%;
    • Real GDP per capita at $ 40,000
    • Then a simple average of these three indices is calculated.

    Slide 5

    Usefulness of benefits Limited resources Fashion and dynamics of social demand Period of consumption (goods of short-term and long-term Consumption) Consumer choice

    Total marginal utility The total utility of the total amount of goods consumed. The more the quantity of the good is consumed, the greater its usefulness. At the same time, each subsequent unit of the good becomes less valuable as the consumer is saturated. Additional utility obtained as a result of the consumption of one more unit of good. The law of marginal utility:
