Activities which are not concerned with money are called non-economic activities, e.g., housewife cooks food for her family. In such activities, there is no expectation of any kind of monetary reward or benefit. They are inspired by sentimental reasons and performed out of love.

Following are the properties of an indifference curve

  1. Indifference curves are always convex to the origin: Due to decreasing MRS, MRS declines continuously because of the law of diminishing marginal utility.
  2. Indifference curves never touch or intersect each other: Each indifference curve shows a different level of satisfaction. Intersection point shows the same satisfaction level which is not possible.
  3. A higher indifference curve represents a higher level of satisfaction: Due to monotonic preferences, higher indifference curve shows bundles having more of one commodity and not less of other good in comparison of la ower indifference curve.
  4. Indifference curve slope downwards: It implies that as a consumer consumes more of one good, he must consume less of the other good.

Individual demand refers to the quantity of a good that a consumer demands at a particular price in a given period of time.

  • Individual Demand Schedule
Price of Ice-cream
(Rs)
Quantity demanded (units) by (A)
 1 4
2 3
3 2
4 1

Market demand is the sum of different individuals demand at different price level at a particular period of time

  • Market Demand Schedule
Price of Ice-cream
(Rs)
A's Demand B's Demand Market demand (A+B)
1 4 5 4 + 5 = 9
2 3 4 3 + 4 = 7
3 2 3 2 + 3 = 5
4 1 2 1 + 2 = 3

Change in quantity demanded and law of demand are different :

Differences between change in demand and change in quantity demanded are

Basis Change in Demand Change in quantity Demanded
Reason It is caused by a change in prices of substitutes,change in prices of complementary goods,change in income, etc. other than the  own price of the commodity. It is caused by an increase or decrease  in the price of the given commodity, keeping other factors constant.
Impact on demand curve It leads to a shift in the demand curve either rightwards (known as increase in demand)or leftwards(known as decrease in demand). It leads to a movement along the same demand curve either upwards(known as contraction in demand)or downwards(known as expansion in demand)
Diagrammatic Presentation Diagrammatically, this is shown as a forward or backward shift in demand curve.

 
Diagrammatically, this is shown as a downward or an upward movement on the same demand curve.

Conditions of consumer's equilibrium (using Marginal Utility Analysis) : A consumer is said to be in equilibrium when he is getting maximum satisfaction with the given market prices and the given his or her income.  

when a consumer is consuming two goods, equilibrium is achieved  when 
{tex}\frac { M U _ { x } } { P _ { x } } = \frac { M U _ { y } } { P _ { y } } = M U _ { m }{/tex}
Where,
MUX and MUy = Marginal utilities of good X and good y respectively
Px and Py = Price of good X and good Y respectively
MUm = Marginal utility of money. If MUm =1,
then the condition of equilibrium is reduced to
{tex}\frac { \mathrm { MU } _ { \mathrm { x } } } { \mathrm { P } _ { \mathrm { x } } } = \frac { \mathrm { MU } _ { \mathrm { y } } } { \mathrm { P } _ { \mathrm { y } } }{/tex}
Or {tex}\frac { \mathrm { MU } _ { x } } { \mathrm { MU } _ { \mathrm { y } } } = \frac { \mathrm { P } _ { \mathrm { x } } } { \mathrm { P } _ { \mathrm { y } } }{/tex}

The above condition says that the consumer will be in equilibrium at that point where the ratio of the marginal utilities of two goods is equal to ratio of the prices of the two goods. 
The above conditions are based on the assumption that the Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility holds true. If MU does not fall as consumption increases, then consumer will never reach the equilibrium situation.

1.Consumer is rational so he want to maximize is satisfaction. 2.money income of consumer is given and doesn't change or we can say remain constant. 3.consumer consumes two commodities , which are close substitute of each other. 4. consumer always prefer more of a commodity as it offers him higher level of satisfaction this is due to monotonic preferences which implies that as consumption increases total utility also increases. 6. consumer preferences for two commodities or goods is well defined if consumer has less quantity of a good his intensity for that good will rise and vice versa.

Opportunity cost is an economic or financial concept that expresses the relationship between scarcity and choice while marginal cost is an economic or financial concept that represents the cost of producing an additional unit. 2.Marginal cost always has a monetary value while opportunity cost can have a monetary value or not. 3.Opportunity cost includes the value of lost time, output, utility, and the benefits that might have been enjoyed if the other choice is made while marginal cost does not. 4.Marginal costs are visible while opportunity costs are not. 5.Marginal cost is the cost incurred during the production of a unit or item while opportunity cost is the cost incurred during the consumer’s choice of which product to buy or use.

Yogita Ingle 6 years, 3 months ago

1. OC ( Opportunity Cost) is the cost of next best alternative foregone.

2. MOC (Marginal Opportunity Cost) is the number of units of a commodity sacrificed to gain one more unit of another commodity.

The objective of this research method is to engage and discover various ideas.

The main objective of Quantitative research is to examine the cause and effect between the variables.

It is one of the exploratory research type methods.

It is a conclusive research type method.

 Indifference Curve Slopes Downwards : 

This property implies that to increase the consumption of X good, the consumer has to reduce the consumption of Y good, so as to remain at the same level of satisfaction as shown in the given diagram:

To increase the quantity of X good from OX to

OX1, the consumer has to reduce the quantity of good Y from OY to OY1.
