Given:- Monthly Income of Ramesh is Rs.600.

            The price of the food is Rs. 30.

            and clothing is Rs.10.

He consumes 12 units of food and 24 units of clothing

MRSxy=Px/Py

To Find:- The equilibrium on the budget line.

Solution:- Total price of food =30*12=360

                 The Total price of clothing is = 10*24=240

                 His monthly income is Rs.600.

                 Therefore, the budget line is price of food* unit of food+price of                commodity *unit of commodity= Monthly income

                  Budget Line= 12x+24y=600

                 The IC curve cuts the budget line at point E which is the equilibrium point in the diagram.

Hence, E is the point on the budget line, Ramesh is in equilibrium.
