Introduction to Micro Economics 6

Answer of CPT June 2010


Questions with Reasonings
(1) (b)
Reasons : Micro economics deals with market mechanism ie, determination of equilibrium
price by the intersection of demand & supply, known as “ Price theory .”
(2) (b)
Reasons : A developed economy has sufficient capital formation due to increase in saving
potentiality. As a result, it can apply advanced technology by “Capital intensive method”.

(3) (d)
Reasons : Slope of PPC can be obtained by marginal opportunity cost & when marginal opportunity
cost is constant the shape of PPC is downward linear as shown in adjacent figure. Constant marginal
opportunity cost implies the situation where increase in one unit of X commodity is associated with
one unit decrease in Y commodity

(4) (c)
Reasons : Prof. Alfred Marshal criticizes the concept given by Prof. Adam Smith that Economics is
not only to wealth of nation but it has got more practical sense as it also deals with study of mankind.
(5) (c)
Reasons : One of the important determinants of elasticity of demand is “Extent of use”. Electricity
has more use & demand is more responsive to change in price ie. ep > 1.
(6) (c)
Reasons : Income elasticity of demand is the degree of responsiveness of qty demanded due to
change in income.In this case demand increases in a greater extent than increase in income.
(7) (c)
7 CPT General Economics

Reasons : In the case of luxury goods, demand is more responsive to change in income & therefore,
income elasticity is positive & greater than one em>1 ie. % change in demand > % change in
income
(8) (d)
Reasons : In the case of a straight line demand curve having positive intercept on Y axis, the value
of ep is infinite as shown in adjacent figure.
ep = Lower segment / Upper segment]
Here, Lower segment is 0 ie. ep = infinite
(9) (b)
Reasons : Income elasticity of demand is the degree of responsiveness of qty demanded due to
change in income.In this case demand increases in a greater extent than increase in income.
ep = 20% /10% = 2
(10) (c)
Reasons : Giffen goods implies ultra inferior goods ie. negative income effect outweighs substitution
effect.ie.extreme form of inferior goods is known as “giffen goods”, named after his name
(11) (d)

Reasons : In this case if expansion & contraction we get movement along the same demand curve
as shown by respective arrow sign.Demand curve remains unchanged & slope of demand curve
changes. For expansion, slope increases & for contraction slope decreases.
(12) (c)
Reasons: Consumer surplus is the difference between total utility or total satisfaction & actual
payment. In this case ,total satisfaction is equal to ‘ 320 and price or actual payment is 180.
Consumer surplus = 320 - 180 = 140
(13) (a)
Reasons: Law of equi marginal utility is the extended form of Law of diminishing marginal utility.By
LDMU marginal utility concept can be derived, where, as a consumer is provided any commodity
more his extra intension for the said commodity will keep on decreasing.The condition of equilibrium
under Law of equi marginal utility is MU= P
Introduction to Micro Economics 8

(14) (d)
Reasons: When indifference curve is L shaped two goods are perfectly complementary as shown
in adjacent figure. The vertical portion IC shows slope as & the horizontal portion shows slope as 0.In
this case increase in one good should be associated with decrease in same amount of other good.
This concept is given by Prof Leontief & this IC is also known as “Right angled IC”.
(15) (b)
Reasons: Indifference curve concept is based on Ordinal approach given by Prof Hicks & Prof
Allen.
(16) (d)
Reasons: Law of diminishing returns implies the situation where as any factor is constantly used
after a certain capacity point the rate of returns keeps on diminishing of that factor.
(17) (d)
Reasons: Law of increasing returns is the resultant factor of economies of scale, specialisation,
indivisibility of factors and for additional unit of output it adds more to revenue than to cost & output
is more responsive to change input.
(18) (d)
Reasons: As per question it is negative returns to factor, ie. even if factor increases output, instead
of increasing keeps on decreasing.
(19) (d)
Reasons: When output is zero TC is 20 = TFC. When output is 2 units TC = 50.
TVC = TC - TFC = 30
(20) (b)
Reasons: Marginal cost is the rate of change in total cost ie., MC = TCn - TCn-1 . TC for 20 units is
600 & for 10 units is 200 . MC for 10 units is 600 - 200 = 400 MC for one unit 400 / 10 = 40
Alternative way : MC = rTC / rQ =
(21) (d)
Reasons: AFC = TFC/ Q = 20/ 4 = 5 as zero level of output implies TC = TFC

(22) (a)
Reasons: An increase in supply with unchanged demand implies decrease in equilibrium price In
adjacent figure the initial equilibrium is obtained by the intersection of D1& S1. With demand
unchanged, increase in supply as S1 exhibits decrease in equilibrium price and increase in
equilibrium quantity.
9 CPT General Economics

(23) (c)

Reasons: Kinked demand approach is given by Prof Paul A Sweezy. Due to product homogeneity,
when one producer increases price others are not cooperating with him,but when one decreases
price everyone does the same thing & AR curve has two slopes as shown in figure Upper portion of
AR shows elastic demand & lower portion shows inelastic demand.
(24) (a)
Reasons:.Price discrimination is possible when seller alone sells one commodity which cannot br
resold.
(25) (c)
Reasons: Imperfect competition implies no identical or non homogeneous product.
(26) (d)
Reasons: Kinked demand model shows “Price rigidity “as explained in Question 23.
(27) (d)
Reasons: Price taker firm implies “Perfectly competitive firm” where due to product homogeneity,
no single firm can determine price & therefore no question of advertisement, which is only applicable
in imperfect competitive market.
(28) (c)
Reasons: Tourism industry is a part of service sector or tertiary sector.
29) (b)
Reasons: First Industrial Resolution started in 1956-57 ie. in Second Plan.
(30) (d)
Reasons: Land reforms started in Indian economy to rectify the problems in low agricultural
productivity with the instruments mentioned in options.
(31) (b)
Reasons: From factor cost to market price, we have to consider govt levies & subsidies.GDPfc =
GDPmp - Indirect tax + subsidies
(32) (c)
Reasons: Transfer payment implies “ Unearned income “ or income without any production of goods
or services eg, money given to begger, to housewife etc.
(33) (a)
Reasons: Real national income implies total purchasing power or value of money, which is obtained
by constant price.
Introduction to Micro Economics 10

(34) (a)
Reasons: Absolute poverty is quantifiable in nature ie. based on consumption data or minimum
amount of cereals , pulses or anything needed to maintain subsistence level. Therefore it is applicable
in Indian economy as it is developing country.
(35) (b)
Reasons: Disguised unemployment implies the situation where number of workers is more than
whatever is needed. So 390 workers can do the job of 400 workers without change in production
implies 10 workers are disguisedly unemployment.
(36) (d)
Reasons: Technological unemployment implies K/L> 1 ie. capital intensive technology is adopted.
(37) (c)
Reasons: Informative based question.
(38) (b)
Reasons:. Informative based question.
(39) (b)
Reasons: Demand pull inflation shows the situation where “ too many money chases too few goods”
i.e. when money expenditure, or, money supply is more than required.
(40) (a)
Reasons: Balance of trade implies difference between visible exports & visible imports.
(41) (d)
Reasons: Informative based question
(42) (b)
Reasons: Informative based question.
(43) (b)
Reasons: Globalisation implies integration of world economy with domestic country which cannot
redis tribute economic power.
(44) (c)
Reasons: Broad money implies narrow money plus time deposits.
45) (b)
Reasons: Informative based question
(46) (b)
Reasons: Informative based question
(47) (c)
Reasons: During inflation RBI applies “ Quantitative credit control “.
(48) (c)
Reasons: Informative based question
(49) (b)
Reasons: 2100 calories is the measuring instrument of estimation of poverty line in urban sector.
(50) (c)
Reasons: Central bank or the RBI is known as “ Lender of last resort “.

(6) b
Reasons : ec x = ∆Qx/Qx = ( -ve)
∆Py/Py
∴∆Qx/Qx = ( -ve) ∆Py/Py
i.e. Price of y & demand for ‘x’ are inversely related. Goods are complementary.
(7) b
Reasons : Q1 = 950, Q2 = 980 ∆Q = 30
M1 = 9000, M2 = 9800 → ∆ M = 800
em = 30 /1930 = 0.36
800 /18800
(8) a
Reasons : Contraction of demand shows movement towards vertical
axis as shown in fig, along the same demand curve, which is due to
increase in price.

(9) d
Reasons : Derived demand implies the situation when a product is demanded consequent
on the purchase of a parent product eg. demand for brick is derived demand, being directly
related to building activity.
