Exhibit 6A-2 Consumer Equilibrium
​ 
-Given the budget lines and indifference curves shown in Exhibit 6A-2, point D yields:
A) more total utility than point A. 
B) more total utility than point E. 
C) less total utility than point F. 
D) less total utility than points B, F, and C

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Point D is on a lower indifference curve than points B, F, and C which means it yields less total utility. It is also on a higher budget line than point E, which means it yields more total utility than point E. However, it yields less total utility than point A because point A is on a higher indifference curve. Therefore, the best choice is D.
