Question : 26 [SSC HSLDEO 2010]
Who propounded the Innovation theory of profits ?
a) David Ricardo
b) J.A. Schumpeter
c) P.A. Samuelson
d) Alfred Marshall
Answer »Answer: (b)
Schumpeter’s (1934) original theory of innovative profits emphasized the role of entrepreneurship (his term was entrepreneurial profits) and the seeking out of opportunities for novel value-generating activities which would expand (and transform) the circular flow of income.
It did so with reference to a distinction between invention or discovery on the one hand and innovation, commercialization and entrepreneurship on the other.
This separation of invention and innovation marked out the typical nineteenth-century institutional model of innovation, in which independent inventors typically fed discoveries as potential inputs to entrepreneurial firms.
Question : 27 [SSC CPO 2006]
In the law of demand, the statement “Other things remain constant” means
a) All of the above
b) income of consumer should not change
c) price of other goods should not change
d) taste of consumer should not change
Answer »Answer: (a)
In economics, the law of demand is an economic law, which states that consumers buy more of a good when its price is lower and less when its price is higher (ceteris paribus).
The Law of demand states that the quantity demanded and the price of a commodity are inversely related, other things remaining constant.
That is, if the income of the consumer, prices of the related goods, and preferences of the consumer remain unchanged, then the change in the number of goods demanded by the consumer will be negatively correlated to the change in the price of the good.
Question : 28 [SSC CGL 2014]
An increase in the quantity supplied suggests :
a) a rightward shift of the supply curve
b) a leftward shift of the supply curve
c) a movement up along the supply curve
d) a movement down along the supply curve
Answer »Answer: (c)
Like the law of demand, the law of supply demonstrates the quantities that will be sold at a certain price. But unlike the law of demand, the supply relationship shows an upward slope.
This means that the higher the price, the higher the quantity supplied. Producers supply more at a higher price because selling a higher quantity at a higher price increases revenue.
Question : 29 [SSC Stenographer 2011]
Exploitation of labour is said to exist when
a) Marginal Revenue Product = 0
b) Wage = Marginal Revenue Product
c) Wage < Marginal Revenue Product
d) Wage > Marginal Revenue Product
Answer »Answer: (c)
The term "exploitation" is used to denote the payment to labour of a wage less than its marginal revenue product. Under monopolistic competition, all factors are exploited in this sense.
All firms hire labour until the marginal revenue product equals the marginal factor cost.
Question : 30 [SSC CHSL 2014]
Subsidies are payment by government to
a) Retired persons
b) Consuming units
c) Producing units
d) Banking units
Answer »Answer: (c)
A subsidy is essentially a payment by the government to suppliers/producers that reduce their costs of production and encourages them to increase output.
Examples include a guaranteed payment on the factor cost of a product –
e.g. a guaranteed minimum price offered to farmers; an input subsidy that subsidizes the cost of inputs used in production, etc. However, subsidies can be given to consuming units as well. Either way, it benefits the end-user or consumer.
