  10. INDIFFERENCE ANALYSIS • The optimum consumption point • equating the marginal rate of substitution with the price ratio • The effect of a change in income • the income–consumption curve • the Engel curve • income elasticity of demand and the income–consumption curve • the effect of a rise in income on the demand for an inferior good
