(b) if It is a branching statement and the others are loops.

This code snippet will print 65, 66, 67,……., 90. 

If the statement int ch; is replaced by 

char ch; it prints A, B, C, ……., Z.

1. do…..while. It is an exit controlled loop while others are entry controlled loop 

2. for. It is a loop while others are branching statements.

If(P<Q)

R = P; 

else 

R = Q;

(a) for. It is a loop the others are branching statement.

1. False. It is not essential in single case statement 

2. True. Because it will first check the condition. If it is true then only the body will be executed. 

3. False. It is an exit controlled loop. 

4. True.

The Central Bank of Kenya Act Sections 4 and 5 provides that the Cabinet Secretary for the National Treasury shall, by notice in writing to the Bank, provide the price stability target of the Government at least in every period of 12 months. The target is provided at the beginning of the financial year.

Central banks conduct monetary policy by adjusting the supply of money, generally through open market operations. For instance, a central bank may reduce the amount of money by selling government bonds under a “sale and repurchase” agreement, thereby taking in money from commercial banks.

Correct answer is Sagacity.

Central Bank is the banker to banks, government, and financial institution, whereas Commercial Bank is the banker to the citizens. The Central Bank is the supreme monetary authority of the country. The Central Bank does not exist for making a profit, whereas commercial bank operates for making a profit for its owners.

A marketer is an individual who is responsible for creating an involvement chain between the customer and the product or service offered by the company.

Answer: Financing

A progressive tax is one where the average tax burden increases with income. High-income families pay a disproportionate share of the tax burden, while low- and middle-income taxpayers shoulder a relatively small tax burden.

Consumption- That part of income in the economy which is spent on goods and services is called ‘consumption’and which is not consumed becomes ‘savings’. 

The addition of Consumption (C) and Saving (S) is called ‘ income’. 

 Income = Consumption + Saving  

Y = C + S 

Consumption Function – According to Keynes consumption expenditure is an economy depends on income or ‘ consumption is a function of income’.

C = f (Y)

Thus, relation between consumption and income is called consumption function. 

Consumption function tells that consumption expenditure directly increases with increase in income but increase in consumption is less than increase in income i.e. consumption does not increase at the same rate as income does. Keynes named this consumption tendency as ‘psychological law of consumption’.

Utility.

Utility refers to the want satisfying power of a commodity that is experienced by the consumer due to the feature and the usefulness of the commodity.

(d) All of the above  

The ability of satisfying human want in a goods is called its Utility.

(d) None of these

A monopolist can not determine the price of his product and the demand quantity simultaneously. At a particular point of time he can either determine price or his sold quantity. If he fixes the price, he will adjust his supply as per the demand from consumer side and contrary to it, if he wants to predetermined his supply level (i.e., sold quantity) he has to sell at the price were his supply matches the demand from consumer side.

With an increase in income, consumer decreases the consumption of Giffen goods.

The two factors that affect elasticity of demand are : 

I. Substitutes :- When substitutes of any goods is available , then demand elasticity of such goods is highly elastic , because when price of these goods increases, substitutes are used in place of it. In the samy way, on decrease in price of these goods, use a substitutes decreases. Tea , coffee , gur , sugar etc. are examples of substitutes. 

II. Price level:- Elasticity of demand also depends on price level of the goods .Elasticity of demand will be greater at high price level and less at low level of price.

In constant proportion production function , the ratio of factors utilised or in use remain constant . This type of production function is realated to long – run. Long – run signifies that period or duration in which a firm can change all its factors of production. In other words, no factor remains fixed in long- run. Factors of production cannot be classified into fixed and variable factors in the long- run. Scale of production can be completely changed in long – run. A firm has sufficient time to change its factor of production and the scale of production in long – run. In other words, a firm can conveniently change its factors of production in long – run to change its scale of production. So, ratio of factor utilisation remains constant in long – run, only scale of production changes. That is why, long – run production function is also called returns to scale.

This method was propounded by prof. Flux . According to this method, for calculating the elasticity of demand , proportionate or percentage change in demand is divided by proportionate or percentage change in price .

(d) All of these 

Hicks propounded the percentage of proportionate method of measuring elasticity of demand.
