Kimberly will again consider the utility and marginal utility that she receives from concert tickets and

overnight getaways and seek her utility-maximizing choice on the new budget line, but how will her new choice

relate to her original choice?

We can replace the possible choices along the new budget constraint into three groups, which the dashed

horizontal and vertical lines that pass through the original choice M in the figure divide. All choices on the

upper left of the new budget constraint that are to the left of the vertical dashed line, like choice P with two

overnight stays and 32 concert tickets, involve less of the good on the horizontal axis but much more of the

good on the vertical axis. All choices to the right of the vertical dashed line and above the horizontal dashed

line—like choice N with five overnight getaways and 20 concert tickets—have more consumption of both goods.
