Point 2.
As there is increase in income the demand it implies that the demand will increase from D1 to D2 i.e., towards right and because the price of factors of production have increases there will be decrease in supply and it will move towards the left from S1 to S3. The point of equilibrium for cure D2 and S3 is Point 2 being the new equilibrium point.
