कन्वर्टिबल डिबेन्चर (Convertible Debenture) का जन्म लेनदार के रूप में होता है, किन्तु उसका पुनर्जन्म मालिक के रूप में होता हैं । |
|
Answer» उपरोक्त विधान सत्य हैं क्योंकि रूपान्तरणीय ऋण-पत्र के रूप में लगाई गई पूँजी उधार स्वरूप की पूँजी होती है, जो कि सुरक्षित लेनदार कहे जाते हैं । लेकिन ऋण-पत्र की रकम को अमुक समय के पश्चात् सामान्य अंश Equity Share के रूप में परिवर्तित कर दिया जाता है । जब सामान्य अंश में परिवर्तित होने से उधार स्वरूप की पूँजी का मालिकी स्वरूप में परिवर्तन हो जाता है, अर्थात् ऐसे ऋणपत्र का पुनः जन्म मालिक के रूप में होता है, ऐसा कहा जाता है । |

वित्त का महत्त्व समझाइये । |
|
Answer» वित्त (द्रव्य) यह एक ऐसी धुरी है कि जिसके आसपास सभी आर्थिक प्रवृत्तियाँ घूमती रहती है । धन्धाकीय पूँजी को मानव शरीर के रक्त के साथ तुलना की जा सकती है । जितना महत्त्व मानवशरीर में रक्त का होता है, उतना ही महत्त्व धन्धाकीय इकाई में वित्त का है । इकाई की समग्र प्रवृत्तियों को समयानुसार चलाने के लिए वित्त की योग्य व्यवस्था जरूरी है । पूँजी के बिना धन्धाकीय इकाई के व्यवहार नहीं हो सकते । धन्धे में वित्त की कमी के कारण अनेक समस्याओं का सामना करना पड़ता है । जैसे कि लेनदारों को भुगतान में देरी होने से इकाई की शान में कमी आती है । जिसके कारण कई बार तो लाभदायी निवेश के उत्तम अवसर खोने पड़ते है व नकद बट्टे का लाभ खोना पड़ता, कच्चे माल का क्रय समय पर नहीं कर सकते इत्यादि, इनके लिए पर्याप्त प्रमाण में पूँजी की आवश्यकता होती है । |

कन्वर्टिबल डिबेन्चर का महत्त्व क्या होता हैं ? |
|
Answer» कन्वर्टिबल डिबेन्चर के सामान्य अंश में परिवर्तित होने से कम्पनी उधार स्वरूप की पूँजी को मालिकी स्वरूप में परिवर्तित कर सकती है, जिससे कम्पनी को डिबेन्चर की रकम व ब्याज चुकाने की आवश्यकता नहीं होती । ऋण-पत्र धारक को अपने आप अंशधारी के रूप में लाभ मिल जाता है, जिसमें बोनस शेयर, अधिकार के अंश, अधिक लाभांश इत्यादि द्वारा कम्पनी के विकास में हिस्सेदार बनने का अवसर मिलता है । इससे भारत में डिबेन्चर लोकप्रिय हुए हैं । |

|
| 8189. |
Explain the methods of measuring National Income. |
|
Answer» There are three methods of measuring national income, they are as follows: (a) Product methods or output method: Under this method, a census of all goods and services are conducted to get the correct picture of total national production. While,calculating total volume of goods and service, the following four items are to be included. 1. All kinds of consumption goods and services. 2. Gross domestic investment, which includes inventories, capital formation, construction of houses etc. 3. Production in the public sector. 4. Export minus imports. (b) Income method: National income is the result of the combined and co-operative efforts put in by all factors of production. Alter employing them, we have to remunerate them in the form of rent, wages, interest and profits. This method may be represented in the following equation. Y = (r + w + i + p) + (X – M) + (R – P), where r – rent, w – wages, i – interest, p – profit, X – exports, M imports, R – receipts, P – payments. (c) Expenditure method: Incomes earned by factor inputs are spent on buying different goods and services. If we add the total expenditure incurred by all people in a years’ time, then we get total income of the people. Income determines the expenditures. All kinds of expenditures are to be taken into account while calculating the national income of a country. They are i. Personal consumption expenditures of all people on all kinds of goods and services. ii. Gross domestic investment or investment expenditures made by all businessmen in a year. iii. Gross Governments’expenditure on all kinds of goods and services. iv. Net foreign investment, exports – imports. This method may be represented with the help of the following equation. Y = (C +I + G) + (X – M) + (R – P), where, C – Consumption, I – Investment, G – Government’s Investment, X – exports, M – Imports, R – Receipts and P – Payments. |

|
Answer» GNPMP = private consumption expenditure + govt, final consumption expenditure( gross fixed capital formation + change in stock or inventory investment) + net export + net factor income from abroad = 475 + 175 + 101 (i.e., 48 + 15+ 38) + 15 + 13 = ₹779 crores. GNPC = GNPUD – net indirect taxes = 779 – 8 = ₹771 crores |

Explain the relationship between national income and welfare. |
|
Answer» Alfred Marshall, Prof.A.C Pigou and J.R.Hicks say that there is a close relationship between economic welfare and national income, because both of them are measures in terms of money. When National income increases, total welfare also increases and vice versa. The effect of national income on economic welfare can be studied in two ways:
(i) The change in the size of National Income: The positive change in the national income increases its volume. As a result people consume more of goods and services, which leads to increase in the economic welfare. Whereas the negative change in national income, results in reduction of its volume. People get lesser goods and services for consumption which leads to decrease in economic welfare. (ii) The change in the distribution of National Income: The distribution of national income takes place in two ways, firstly, by transferring wealth from poor to rich and secondly from the rich to the poor. But, it is advisable to follow the second way in distribution of national income. The actual relation between the distribution of national income and economic welfare concerns the transfer of wealth flow from the rich to the poor. The redistribution of wealth in favour of the poor is brought about by reducing the wealth of the rich and increasing the income of the poor. Thus, the increase in national income leads to increase in economic welfare provided that the income of the poor increases instead of decreasing and they improve their standard of living and that the income of the rich decreases in such a way that their productive capacity, investment and capital accumulation do not decline. |

a) Discuss the pros and cons of allowing private companies to mine our minerals. b) How do you think they can be regulated? c) How do you think can the environmental concerns can be taken care of? |
|
Answer» a) Pros: A New National Mineral Policy was announced in 1993, and the government allowed private companies to lease mines and operate them. The companies were to pay a royalty to the government for the minerals they extracted and sold. In this way the government could retain regulatory control over the mining, get income from them and at the same time encourage private companies to invest money and bring in new technologies. Cons: On the other hand, there has also been uncontrolled mining by the private companies far in excess of the permits given to them and disregard for environmental and safety measures. Excess mining means that more quantity is mined than is sustainable on a long term. It also means that the minerals are taken away by companies without paying royalty to the government – thus the people to whom the minerals really belong to do not get anything. It can also be environmentally very harmful. b) Mines should be under the control of the government. If they are given to others, there should be the supervision of higher officials and local people. c) Preference should be given to the mining people, who are interested in underground mining. The pit and the mound of rubble which is created should be properly disposed of. Necessary steps should be taken to control the sand pits. |
|
| 8194. |
How does the government use the minerals? |
|
Answer» 1. In 1970s the government took over all the mines. 2. Then it owned and operated most of the mines and sold the minerals to various factories or traders or exported them. 3. The income thus received by the government is being spent on developmental activities of the people. |

What are the sensitivities in obtaining minerals from mines? |
|
Answer» Most of the mining practices result in disturbing the surface area – it can mean cutting down forests, destroying fields and habitations, creating large pits or mounds. Mines also need large amounts of water to wash the minerals. This results in polluting the nearby rivers and water sources. This usually means that older use of the land cannot be continued and farmers or tribal people have to leave the land. Even people who live nearby face problems created by mining. At the same time mining employs a large number of people who come to live in nearby areas and build new townships. It thus provides livelihood for nearly ten lakh people in India and over one lakh people in Andhra Pradesh. The work of miners is also very hazardous, as they are constantly exposed to accidents besides breathing in poisonous substances which cause long term health damage. |
