2. Individuals have complete information and are able to calculate the costs and benefits of each option before making a decision.
3. Individuals are capable of making consistent choices, meaning they have stable preferences that do not change over time.
4. Individuals have a set of feasible options to choose from.
5. Individuals have the ability to rank their preferences and make choices accordingly.
6. Individuals make choices independently of others, meaning they do not take into account the choices made by others when making their own decisions.
7. Individuals are utility maximizers, meaning they try to maximize their overall satisfaction or well-being.
