  10. Consumer’s ProblemUtility function utility u(x) px maximized net benefit = max[u(x)-px] x x(p) • u(x) is typically increasing and concave • Consumer chooses x(p) because of maximal net benefit • Cummunications expenditure is small wrt total income • Utility of communications is quasilinear wrt income • Level of income has little impact on u(x)
