Respuesta :

Answer:

Juan should increase his consumption of candy and decrease his consumption of baseball cards.

Explanation:

Given that

The baseball cards marginal  utility is 20

And the candy marginal utility is 10.

Now If the baseball cards price is $10,

and the candy price is $2

So if we divide the marginal utility with the price so it will come 2 for baseball card and 5 for candy so the consumption of the candy should be increased while on the other hand the consumption of the baseball card should be decreased
