Budget Line Equation Calculator
By Christopher Martinez
Given Budget Line Values:
Px = 2, Py = 4, Qx = 3, Qy = 5
Calculate Income
Budget Line Equation:
I = Px x Qx + 4 x Py x Qy
where:
I = Income
2 = Price of item x
3 = Quantity of Item x
4 = Price of item y
5 = Quantity of Item y
Plug in values
I = 2 x 3 + 4 x 5
I = 6 + 20
I = 26
You have 1 free calculations remaining
With a Total Income of 26
you can buy 3 items of x at a price of 2
and 5 items of y at a price of 4
