How do the deposits with the banks become their source of income? |
|
Answer» Banks use the major portion of the deposits with them to extend loans. As there is a huge demand for loans for various economic activities, the banks make use of the deposits with them to meet the above loan requirements. In this way, the banks mediate between the depositors and the borrowers. Banks charge a higher interest rate on loans than what they pay on the deposits. The difference between interest rate charged from the borrowers and what is paid to the depositors is, thus, the main source of income for the banks. |

Kerala, with lower per capita income has a better human development ranking than Punjab. Hence, per capita income is not a useful criterion at all and should not be used to compare states. Do you agree? Discuss. |
|
Answer» Kerala, with lower per capita income has a better human development ranking than Punjab. However, it would be wrong to say that per capita income is not a useful criterion at all. Per capita income is certainly not the only criterion and it has its limitations. But this does not imply that it is not useful at all. To counter the inadequacy of this average, the human development index is used. The human development index uses a combination of development factors (such as health, education, income) for comparison. Thus, per capita income is one of the development factors, and cannot be done away with. Also, per capita income is useful for comparing the money index of states. |
|
| 26. |
Why do we use averages? Are there any limitations to their use? Illustrate with your own examples related to development. |
|
Answer» We use averages because they are useful for comparing differing quantities of the same category. For example, to compute the per capita income of a country, averages have to be used because there are differences in the incomes of diverse people. However, there are limitations to the use of averages. Even though they are useful for comparison, they may also hide disparities. For example, the infant mortality rate of a country does not differentiate between the male and female infants born in that country. Such an average tells us nothing about whether the number of children dying before the age of one are mostly boys or girls. |

Goods were exchanged for goods prior to invention of money. Each party must have surplus goods for exchange. What does it mean? What are the constraints of that system? |
|
Answer» The system in which the goods were exchanged for goods was called ‘barter system’. The barter system has many constraints. They are: 1. Lack of double coincidence of Wants: Unless two persons who have surplus have the demand for the goods possessed by each other, barter could not materialize. If this “coincidence of wants” does not exist, Barter cannot take place. 2. Non – existence of common measure of value: Barter system could not determine the value of commodities to be exchanged as they lacked commonly acceptable measures to evaluate each and every commodity. 3. Lack of direct contact between producer and consumers: It was not possible for buyers and sellers to meet face to face in many contexts for exchanging the commodities for commodities. 4. Lack of surplus stock: Absence of surplus stock was one of the impediments in barter system. If the buyers and sellers do not have surplus then no barter was possible. |
