The tables show the utility Parker experienced from consuming varying quantities of waffles and pancakes. Assume that waffles cost $2.00 each, pancakes cost $1.00 each, and that Parker has $8.00 to spend on these two goods. Since Parker cannot afford more than four waffles or eight pancakes, the utility is given only for quantities smaller than these.
