Sharon purchases two products, X and Y, with a given fixed budget. The marginal utility she receives from the last unit of X she consumes is 60 utils, and the marginal utility she receives from the last unit of Y she consumes is 30 utils. The price of X is $2.00, and the price of Y is $1.00. Based on the equal marginal principle, these data suggest that Sharon

A) is maximizing her total utility from the given fixed budget.

Explanation:

And for profit maximization, the marginal utility and the price is equivalent to both the goods.

i.e

30 = 30
