The concept is the basis of indifference curve and the modern theory of consumer demand. If the consumer exchanges additional unit of one commodity for another commodity it called marginal rate of substation (MRS). In this MRS the consumer reduces the consumption of one commodity and increase the consumption of another commodity if he wants to get same amount of satisfaction.
