Q.1 What is production function and its uses? Explain the two types of production
functions.
Answer: A production function shows the relationship between inputs of capital and labor and other factors and the outputs of goods and services.
In macroeconomics, the output of interest is Gross Domestic Product or GDP
The simplest possible production function is a linear production function with labor alone as an input.

                                               
2. Consumers' interview method is a survey method used for estimating the demand for new
products. This method is very important with regard to collect the relevant information
directly from the consumers with regard to their future purchase plans. Opinion surveys
and direct interview method are the two important techniques among all. Describe these
two methods in detail.


Q3. A cost-schedule is a statement of variations in costs resulting from variations in the levels of output and it shows the response of costs to changes in output. If we represent the relationship between changes in the level of output and costs of production, we get different types of cost curves in the short run. Define the kinds of cost concepts like TFC, TVC, TC, AFC, AVC, AC and MC and its corresponding curves with suitable diagrams for each.

Answer: A proper understanding of the nature and behaviour of costs is a must for regulation and control of cost of production. The cost of production depends on money forces and an understanding of the functional relationship of cost to various forces will help us to take various decisions. Output is an important factor, which influences the cost.

The cost-output relationship plays an important role in determining the optimum level of production. Knowledge of the cost-output relation helps the manager in cost control, profit prediction, pricing, promotion etc. The relation between cost and its determinants is technically described as the cost function.



Q 4. Inflation is a global Phenomenon which is associated with high price causes decline in the value for money. It exists when the amount of money in the country is in excess of the physical volume of goods and services. Explain the reasons for this monetary phenomenon.

Answer: Define Inflation- Inflation is commonly understood as a situation of substantial and rapid increase in the level of prices and consequent deterioration in the value of money over a period of time. It refers to the average rise in the general level of prices and fall in the value of money.

Inflation is an upward movement in the average level of prices. The opposite of inflation is deflation, a downward movement in the average level of prices. The common feature of inflation is rise in prices and the degree of inflation may be measured by price indices.

Inflation is statistically measured in terms of percentage increase in the price index, as a rate (percent) per unit of time- usually a year or a month.





Q.5 Discuss the practical application of Price elasticity and Income elasticity of demand.
Answer: Price elasticity of demand :

Price elasticity of demand (PED or Ed) is a measure used in economics to show the responsiveness, or elasticity, of the quantity demanded of a good or service to a change in its price. More precisely, it gives the percentage change in quantity demanded in response to a one percent change in price (ceteris paribus, i.e. holding constant all the other determinants of demand, such as income). It was devised by Alfred Marshall.

 Applications of price elasticity :
1.Inelastic demand for agricultural products helps to explain why bumper crops depress the prices and total revenues for farmers.
2.Governments look at elasticity of demand when




6. Define revenue. Explain the types of revenue and the relationship between TR, AR and MR
with an example of a hypothetical revenue schedule.

Answer: Revenue is the total amount received by a business or recognized as earned when the business sells something, usually services and goods. In modern accountancy, revenue is recorded when it is earned not when the cash is received from customers. For example when a phone service provider records revenue when calls are made not at the time when you pay the bills. This principle is known as revenue recognition principle.
