The Ambrose indifference curve may need double-checking as the equation could possibly suffer from entry error. Bundle consumption should have a 3/15 impact regardless of marginal rate. Therefore, it is likely human computational error accounting for the marginal substitution rate we are seeing. Also, the consumption bundle does not seem correct.
