Write short note on Elasticity of supply.

Answer»

Elasticity of SUPPLY measures the degree of responsiveness of quantity supplied to a change in own price of the commodity. It is also defined as the PERCENTAGE change in quantity supplied divided by percentage change in price.
It can be calculated by using the following formula:
ES = % change in quantity supplied/% change in price
Symbolically,
ES = ∆Q/Q ÷ ∆P/P = ∆Q/∆P × P/Q
Examples of INELASTIC goods would be water, gasoline, HOUSING, and food. Elasticgoods are usually VIEWED as luxury items.

Write short note on Types of demand

Answer»

Demand is generally classified on the basis of various factors, such as nature of a product, usage of a product, number of consumers of a product, and suppliers of a product.

The demand for a particular product WOULD be different in different situations.

Therefore, organizations should be clear about the type of demand for their products.

ADVERTISEMENTS:

Figure-1 shows the different CLASSIFICATIONS of demand:



The different types of demand (as shown in Figure-1) are DISCUSSED as follows:

i. Individual and MARKET Demand:

Individual demand can be defined as a quantity demanded by an individual for a product at a particular price and within the specific period of time. For example, Mr. X demands 200 units of a product at Rs. 50 per unit in a week.

ADVERTISEMENTS:

The individual demand of a product is influenced by the price of a product, income of customers, and their tastes and preferences. On the other hand, the total quantity demanded for a product by all individuals at a GIVEN price and time is regarded as market demand.

In simple terms, market demand is the aggregate of individual demands of all the consumers of a product over a period of time at a specific price, while other factors are constant. For example, there are four consumers of oil (having a certain price). These four consumers consume 30 liters, 40 liters, 50 liters, and 60 liters of oil respectively in a month. Thus, the market demand for oil is 180 liters in a month.

ii. Organization and Industry Demand:

Refers to the classification of demand on the basis of market. The demand for the products of an organization at given price over a point of time is known as organization demand. For example, the demand for Toyota cars is organization demand. The sum total of demand for products of all organizations in a particular industry is known as industry demand.

Write short note on Form utility

Answer»

WITHIN economics the concept of utility is used to model worth or value, but its usage has evolved significantly over time. The term was introduced initially as a measure of pleasure or satisfaction within the theory of utilitarianism by MORAL philosophers such as Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill. But the term has been adapted and reapplied within neoclassical economics, which dominates modern economic theory, as a utility function that represents a consumer's preference ordering over a choice set. As such, it is DEVOID of its original interpretation as a measurement of the pleasure or satisfaction OBTAINED by the consumer from that choice.

Write short note on Paradox of value

Answer»

The paradox of value (ALSO known as the diamond–water paradox) is the apparent CONTRADICTION that, although water is on the whole more useful, in terms of survival, than diamonds, diamonds command a HIGHER price in the market. The philosopher Adam Smith is often considered to be the classic presenter of this paradox, although it had already appeared as early as Plato's Euthydemus.[1]Nicolaus Copernicus,[2] John LOCKE, John Law[3] and others had previously tried to explain the disparity.
