1. Business and traders get credit from commercial bank against the security of their goods. Bank never gives credit equal to the full value of the security. It always pays less value than the security. 

2. So, the difference between the value of security and value of loan is called marginal requirement. 

3. In a situation of deficient demand leading to deflation, central bank decreases marginal requirements. This encourages borrowing because it makes people get more credit against their securities.

The Sales Manager, 

‘The Computer Home’, 

Main Road, Ranchi. 

Subject: Replacement of the defective HP - Jet 200 Printer Sir, 

I bought an HP Desk Jet 200 Printer from your firm, The, Computer Home, Ranchi on 20th September, 2017. ‘The Computer Home’ is the sole dealer of Hewlett Packard at Ranchi. However, I am constrained to express my  resentment that the Jet Printer has belied all those tall claims that you have been making through your spacious advertisements in the newspapers. The most irritating factor is that of its print quality. The print is substandard, hazy and the impression lacks depth and clarity. The ink nozzles of the print cartridge have caused a lot of headache to me. The nozzles frequently get clogged. 

I regret to say that inspite of my repeated reminders, you paid no attention to remove these problems in the smooth working of the Jet Printer. Such a behaviour defies all ethics of business and trade. The warranty period hasn’t expired and it is obligatory on your part to remove such technical faults. I request you to replace this defective printer and hope you will send your service engineer to attend to the defective Jet Printer at the earliest. I am sure, you will not compel me to go to the Consumers’ Court for the redress of my grievance. 

Yours faithfully, 

Hemant Patel

Helen's father was very affectionate towards her. It was he who developed her interest in nature. He used to take her out into the garden where he read stories to her. Her house was covered with vines, climbing roses and honeysuckles and it was the favourite haunt of honeybees and hummingbirds. Helen considered it to be the paradise of her childhood. Miss Sullivan also played an important role in developing Helen's love towards nature. She always taught her outdoors in the lap of nature. She learnt all tire subjects like zoology, botany, geography, etc. outdoors. Miss Sullivan took her to riverbanks, built dams of pebbles, and dug river-beds in order to teach her. She learnt the growth of a plant by actually feeling its growth day-by-day, in order and systematically. Once Miss Sullivan took her outdoors, while sitting on a tree branch, she was caught in a storm. She was terrified as Miss Sullivan had gone home to bring food. At that moment, she realized that nature could be benevolent as well as dangerous. Despite her disability, she learnt swimming. She had a bad experience in the ocean as well but that did not deter her from learning how to swim. Her experiences with nature made her come out as a woman who could move ahead on the path of life with full confidence.

Dr. AG Bell played a significant role in the life of Helen Keller. So profound was his influence on Helen that she dedicated her autobiography, ‘The Story of My Life’ to him. He was tender and kind hearted. 

Dr Alexander Graham Bell was tender and sympathetic, which endeared him to so many hearts. He enjoyed working for the deaf and was very happy in the company of children. Dr. Bell was deeply committed to the education of the hearing impaired, which shows that he was a kind hearted person. For Helen, he remained a true companion and support and it was due to his efforts that Helen was exposed to a whole new world of possibilities. 

Dr. Bell was a helpful and kind man who advised Helen’s father to write to Mr. Anagnos, Director of the Perkins Institute for the Blind in Boston to enquire about a teacher for Helen. Miss Sullivan, who became Helen’s guide companion and teacher was referred by Mr. Anagnos who in turn was referred to Helen’s father by Mr. Graham Bell. Helen had spent many happy days with Mr. Bell at Washington and his home listening about his experiments. He could present even the most difficult theories in a simple and interesting way. 

According to Helen, Dr. Bell was proficient in many fields of science and had the ability to turn any drab, abstruse subject interesting. He saw the best in people and believed that any body could be an inventor if he or she had enough time. Contrasting with his image of a scientist, Dr. Bell was also an artistic and a humorous person. But the greatest quality that motivates the humanitarian in Dr. Bell is his love for children. He was devoted to the cause of deaf children and he wanted to make the world a better place for them.

The Story of My life 

Helen Keller was an American author, political activist and a lecturer. She was the first deaf blind person to earn a Bachelor of Arts Degree.

 Helen Keller converted her disability into her special ability. Helen Keller was born on June 17, 1880 in Tuscumbia. She lost her eyesight and hearing after an illness when she was just nineteen months old. Although her disability left her shattered. She achieved a lot in her life with her will power, dedication and focus. 

Helen though deaf and blind did not want to depend on others. Even before her teacher came, Helen used to spend her time in the garden and feel the  flowers and plants to comfort herself. Again later in life when Helen started reading books she preferred doing on her own than have Miss Sullivan read the stories to her. 

Since childhood, Helen was curious to earn and know about the things around her. Helen travelled to various places with her teacher and learned about them. She did not consider anything difficult enough to learn, be it reading, speaking or writing. Helen managed to study subjects like Latin, French, Algebra and Geometry due to her focus and goal in life. 

Helen was always interested in learning new things. When she was accused of Plagiarism, she felt disgraced, but she cut this incident behind and started to write again. Helen Keller thus triumphed over adversity to become world famous and her struggle is a source of inspiration to millions of people all over the world.

Dear Byron

We know little about the working of this universe. It’s absolutely true. Frankly, I was not specially gifted for writing ghost stories. Thanks to Jenkins. His magazine was the only magazine that printed my ghost stories. Somehow I managed to write a short story whenever Jenkins asked me to write one.

The appearance of the ghost of Helen was an important incident. She appeared part by part till she stood there as a complete woman before me. She had come to warn me that I would not get any help or creative inspiration from spirits like her. They had gone on strike because of the troubles they faced by Ouija board fanatics. She asked John to persuade his wife, friends and acquaintances to stop using Ouija boards. If he succeeded in it, he could get help in writing from them again in future.

The unpleasant incident at the Ouija board party almost brought my relationship with Lavinia on the verge of breaking. She suspected me of flirting with Helen on the Ouija board. However, her encounter with Helen, the ghost solved all my problems. She didn’t faint but a satisfied smile spread over her face. The owl-eyed unattractive Helen could pose no danger to her. It saved our relations and I got a wonderful plot to write a ghost story. Ironically, it was due to Helen, the ghost.

Yours sincerely

John

The business plan is a comprehensively written down document prepared by the entrepreneur describing formally all the relevant external and internal elements involved in starting a new venture.

The business plan is valuable to the entrepreneur, potential investors, venture capitalists, banks, financial institutions, new personnel's suppliers, customers, advisors and others who are trying to familiarize themselves with the venture, its goals, and objectives. 

The business plan – 

(a) helps in determining the viability of the venture in a designated market 

(b) helps in providing guidance to the entrepreneur in organizing his/her planning activities as such: 

(i) identifying the resources required 

(ii) enabling obtaining of licenses if required etc. 

(iii) working out with legal requirements as desired by the government. 

(c) helps in satisfying the concerns, queries, and issues of each group of people interested in the venture. 

(d) provides room for self-assessment and self-evaluation, requiring entrepreneur to think through various scenarios and plan ways to avoid obstacles. 

(e) though not desirable, at times, business plan helps to realize the obstacles which cannot be avoided or overcome, suggesting to terminate the venture while still on paper without investing further time and money. 

(f) as the investors/lenders focus on the four Cs of credit : character, cash flow, collateral and equity contribution, it is the business plan which reflects the entrepreneur's credit history, the ability to meet debt and interest payments, and the amount of personal equity invested thus serving as an important tool in funds procurement.

National Income(NNP_FC) = Rs.850crores

GDP_MP =Rs. 1100crores

Net factor income from abroad = Rs.100crores
Net indirect taxes = Rs.150crores

NNP_FC = GDP_MP + Net factor income from abroad - Depreciation - Net indirect taxes Putting these values in the formula,

850 = 1100 + 100 - Depreciation – 150
850 = 1100 - 50 – Depreciation
850 = 1050 – Depreciation
Depreciation = 1050 - 850 = Rs.200crores
So, depreciation is Rs.200crores.

Budget Deficit
The excess of government expenditure over government income is termed as budget deficit.
Budget Deficit = G – T

Where,
‘G’ represents government expenditure
‘T’ represents government income
Trade Deficit
Trade deficit measures the excess of import expenditure over the export revenue of a country.
Trade Deficit = M – X
Where,
‘M’ represents expenditure on imports
‘X’ represents revenue earned by exports
It is given that,
I - S = Rs.2000 crores.
G - T = (-) Rs.1500 crores.
Therefore,
Trade deficit = [I - S] + [G - T]
= 2000 + [-1500]
= Rs.500 crores.

b) Permanent working capital financed with long-term liabilities. 

c) an example of "high risk -- high (potential) profitability" asset financing. 

a) a trade-off between profitability and risk

An example of stock can be the amount or level of water in a tank. At any point of time the amount or the level of water in a tank can be measured. Similarly, the capital is also a stock variable, as the capital can also be measured at any point of time. 

Now, if water is flowing out of a tank through a tap, then the level of water will change over time. The difference in water level over an interval of time is an example of a flow variable. Similarly, net investment gives the difference in the investment level over a period of time.

Liquidity varies inversely with profitability. 

c) is the amount of current assets required to meet a firm's long-term minimum needs.

b) accounts payable.

d) Rs. 12,012 decrease in notes payable.

Serious persistent abnormalities in communication & language-have repetitive and deviant speech patterns. Show narrow patterns of interests & repetitive behaviors-motor movements may be stimulatory or self injurious.

(c) Intellectual disability 

It refers to below average intellectual functioning (with an of approximately  or below) It can get manifested before the age of 18 years. It can be manifested at 4 levels: 

i. Mild 

ii. Moderate 

iii. Severe 

iv. Profound

Deficit or impairment in adaptive behavior particularly in the areas of communication, self-care, home living, social interpersonal skills, academic skills, vocational adjustment.

(d) Specific Learning Disability 

The individual experiences difficulty in perceiving and processing information efficiently and accurately. These get manifested in early school years the individual encounters problems in reading, writing and/or Mathematics. 

Cooperation-When groups work together to achieve shared goals then it is known as cooperation. There are group rewards instead of individual rewards. 

Competitive goals are set in such a way that each individual can get his goal only if others don’t attain it. Maximise their own benefits and work for realisation of self-interest. 

Determinants: Reward structure; Interpersonal communication; Reciprocity

1. Psychodynamic model -Abnormal symptoms are viewed as the result of conflicts between these forces. This model was first formulated by Freud who believed that three central forces shape personality- intrapsychic conflict— instinctual needs, drives and impulses (id), rational thinking (ego), and moral standards (superego). 

2. Behavioural model. This model states that both normal and abnormal behaviours are learned and psychological disorders are the result of learning maladaptive ways of behaving. Learning can take place by classical conditioning (temporal association in which two events repeatedly occur close together in time), operant conditioning (behaviour is followed by a reward), and social learning (learning by imitating others’ behaviour). 

3. Cognitive model. People may hold assumptions and attitudes about themselves that are irrational and inaccurate. People may also repeatedly think in illogical ways and make overgeneralizations, that is, they may draw broad, negative conclusions on the basis of a single insignificant event. 

4. Humanistic-existential model, which focuses on broader aspects of human existence. Humanists believe that human beings are born with a natural tendency to be friendly, cooperative and constructive, and are driven to selfactualise, i.e. to fulfil this potential for goodness and growth. Existentialists believe that from birth we have total freedom to give meaning to our existence or to avoid that responsibility. Those who shirk from this responsibility would live empty, inauthentic, and dysfunctional lives. 

In Indian budget progressive tax system can be a good measure to remove the inequality of ‘income and wealth’ and government should provide social facilities like education, health and food grain to the poor at subsidized rates.

break statement is used to terminate the execution of the loop.

For example:

for i in range(6):

if i ==3:

break

print i

The output of the above code will be:

0

1

2

The loop terminates when i becomes 3 due to break statement

Whereas,

continue statement is used to force the next iteration while skipping the statements in the present iteration.

for i in range (6):

if i==3:

continue

print i

The output of the above code will be:

0

1

2

3

4

5

continue statement forces next iteration when i becomes 3, bypassing the print statement. Thus, in the output 3 is missing.
