Each hamburger costs $5, and each ice cream cone costs $3. The party planning committee has a budget that allows it to purchase exactly 40 hamburgers and 24 ice cream cones. If it does this, the marginal utility of buying one more hamburger is 30 units of happiness whereas the marginal utility of buying one more ice cream cone is 20 units of happiness. Should the party planning buy exactly 40 hamburgers, more than 40 hamburgers, or fewer than 40 hamburgers?
