In the diagram on the right the consumer's original budget line is L, and the consumer buys the amount of good X at point A. Then the price of good X decreases dramatically so that the consumer's new budget line shifts to L2. After the price decrease the consumer buys the amount of good X at point C to The substitution effect due to the price change is the movement from point point C U2 Good Good Y
