The correct answer is A. the consumer is in equilibrium
Explanation: In consumer theory, a consumer is said to be in equilibrium when:
This means the satisfaction gained from consuming an extra unit equals the cost of that unit.
At this point:
The consumer has no incentive to buy more or less of the commodity.
Utility is being maximized given the budget.
So:
If MU = Price, the consumer is at equilibrium 
Other options:
B → Not necessarily true 
C → Total utility is not equal to price
D → Opposite of the correct condition
Therefore, the correct answer is A. the consumer is in equilibrium.
