Study Notes

Feasible Frontier and Indifference Curves

The student's feasible frontier shows the maximum attainable combinations of final exam grades and free time.
The feasible frontier is downward-sloping, illustrating a trade-off between grade and free time.
The indifference curves represent different levels of satisfaction for the student.
Higher indifference curves represent higher levels of satisfaction.
The curves are convex to the origin, indicating diminishing marginal rate of substitution.
Points along the indifference curves represent the same level of satisfaction.
Point D is preferred to point C because point D is on a higher indifference curve and is also attainable.
Points above IC_3 are preferred but unattainable because they are not on the feasible frontier.
Points below the feasible frontier are unattainable.
The optimal choice for the student is on the highest possible indifference curve that intersects the feasible frontier.
