Indifference Curves - First to answer both questions correctly wins 1 SBD, all attempts will receive upvotes

Hi Everyone,

This is a short video that briefly explains indifference curves and how they can be used to explain decision-making. Indifference curves and indifference curve analysis can be considered as part of consumer theory which investigates people’s purchasing behaviour. At the end of this post I have links to my other posts and videos relating to consumer theory and utility.

What is an indifference curve?

An indifference curve is a curve that shows all the combination of goods and/or services that yield the same level of utility. Indifference curves are typically represented on a two-dimensional plane for 2 goods or services. This is generally impractical for real world representation as people have a selection of a multitude of goods and services. Indifference curves can serve as good teaching tool. Indifference curve can help explain relationships between various types of goods (complements and substitutes).

Real life application of indifference curves

Indifference curves can be used to explain why people desire particular quantities of certain good and services. For example, if there was a shortage of bread. It is likely that demand for complements to bread such as jam, peanut butter, butter, and preserves will fall. This is because these goods are normally bought together. One has little value without the other. Indifference curves are an easy way to explain this type of phenomena compared to mathematical equations.
