The following is the schedule representing the marginal utilities obtained by a consumer  from consuming good X and marginal utility of a rupee is 2. State the number of units being consumed by him at a prices of ₹6 to obtain his equilibrium

3 units

The correct answer is option (2) : 3 units

Given marginal utility of a Rupee = 2

A consumer will be in equilibrium when MU (₹) = Price (₹)

We have to find equilibrium when P =6

Thus, the units at which the marginal utility in rupees = 6, this will be the equilibrium.

The MU in rupee is equal to 6 at 3 units. This is the point of consumer equilibrium.
