Explanation / Answer

The consumer has income of $32,563 and consumes only two goods, which are pizza and soda. To get the intercept of pizza on the vertical axis we have to assume that the consumer is only consuming pizza, the number of pizza we will get after dividing his total income with the price of pizza would be the vertical intercept.

Vertical intercept = 32563/2.33 = 13975.53648068669527 = 13975.54 approximately

Answer = 13975.54 units.
