According to Ordinalist approach, the utility can be measured in subjective units.ProductionConsumptionScarcityMoneythe additional benefit of buying an additional unit of a product.that which we forgo, or give up, when we make a choice or a decision.the cost incurred in the past before we make a decision about what to do in the future. a cost that cannot be avoided, regardless of what is done in the future.price and quantity demanded are inversely related the larger the number of buyers in a market, the lower will be product priceprice and quantity demanded are directly relatedconsumers will buy more of a given product at high prices than they will at low pricesmoney income and quantity demandedprice and production costs price and quantity demandedconsumer tastes and the quantity demandedprice decline shifts the supply curve to the leftlower price shifts the demand curve to the leftlower price shifts the dema nd curve to the rightlower price increases the real incomes of buyers, enabling them to buy moreconsumer incomes have declined and they now want to buy less of A at each possible price the price of A has increased and, as a result, consumers want to purchase less of it

consumer preferences have changed in favour of A so that they now want to buy more at each possible price. the price of A has declined and, as a result, consumers want to purchase more of itachange in the elasticity of a demand curve the shift of a demand curve a movement along a given demand schedule or curvethe quantity demanded changes as price changesconsumers are largely unresponsive to a per unit price change the elasticity coefficient is greater that 1 a drop in price is accompanied by a decrease in the quantity demanded a drop in price is accompanied by an increase in the quantity demandedelasticity is constant along the curve

A rational consumer is one who allocates his spending in such a way that the preferred combination gives him the maximum satisfaction
