Solution
A relationship between TU and MU:
1.TU increases with an increase in consumption of a commodity as long as MU is positive. In this phase, TU increases but a diminishing rate as MU from each successive unit tends to diminish.
2.When TU reaches its maximum, MU becomes zero. TU stops rising at this stage. This point is known as a point of satiety.
3.When consumption is increased beyond the point of satiety, TU starts falling as MU becomes negative.
