What is the difference between total utility and marginal utility? A. Marginal utility represents the consumer optimum while total utility gives the total utility per dollar spent on the last unit. B. Total utility represents the consumer optimum while marginal utility gives the total utility per dollar spent on the last unit. C. Total utility is the total amount of satisfaction derived from consuming a certain amount of a good while marginal utility is the additional satisfaction gained from consuming an additional unit of the good. D. Marginal utility is subject to the law of diminishing marginal utility while total utility is not.

Total utility is the total amount of satisfaction derived from consuming a certain amount of a good while marginal utility is the additional satisfaction gained from consuming an additional unit of the good.

Explanation:

As consumption increases, total utility increases but marginal utility would begin to diminish after a certain point is reached as a result of diminishing marginal utility.

The Law Of Diminishing Marginal Utility states that all else equal as consumption increases the marginal utility derived from each additional unit falls.
