Cardinal utility is a concept in economics that represents the measurement of utility or satisfaction derived from consuming goods and services. Unlike ordinal utility, which ranks preferences without assigning specific values, cardinal utility assigns numerical values to levels of satisfaction or utility. These numerical values allow economists to quantify utility and analyze consumer choices mathematically, facilitating the application of mathematical tools such as calculus and optimization techniques in economic analysis.
