Select the correct answer using the code given below:

a) (i) & (iii) only

b) (ii) only

c) (i) only

d) None of the above

Answer: (d)

If investments are decreasing that means there is less production of capital goods in the economy but that does not mean that the existing capital stock will decrease. The existing capital stock will keep on increasing even if investments are decreasing. So, (i) statement is false.

And since existing capital stock will keep on increasing, therefore production of goods and services i.e. GDP will keep on increasing. So, (iii) statement is false.

If investments are decreasing, that means the production of capital goods is decreasing. Then you can’t say anything about the productivity of capital i.e. ICOR.

So, (ii) stamen is also false.
