Correct Answer: Slope of budget line


Solution : The slope of the budget line, which is the ratio of the price of good X to the price of good Y, is the marginal rate of exchange. The marginal rate of substitution, on the other hand, is the slope of the indifference curve that measures the units of good y sacrificed to gain one additional unit of good x.
Hence correct will be option B.
