Utility Maximization Problem

What is Utility Maximization Problem

Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill, both utilitarian philosophers, were the ones who initially devised the concept of utility maximization. The utility maximization problem is a challenge that consumers encounter in the field of microeconomics. This problem pertains to the question, “How should I spend my money in order to maximize my utility?” It falls within the category of optimal choice problems. It is the process of deciding how much of each available commodity or service to consume, taking into account a limitation on overall spending (income), the cost of the goods, and the preferences of the individual.
