When the inflation is very moderate, it acts as an incentive to traders and producers. The profit due to rising prices encourages and induces business class to increase their investments in production, leading to generation of employment and income.
(i) However, hyper-inflation results in a serious depreciation of the value of money and it discourages savings.
(ii) When the value of money undergoes considerable depreciation, this may even drain out the foreign capital.
(iii) With reduced capital accumulation, the investment will suffer a serious set-back which may have an adverse effect on the volume of production.

i. National income is also being measured by the social accounting method.
ii. Under this method, the transactions among various sectors such as firms, households, government, etc., are recorded and their interrelationships traced.

iv. Because it represents the major economic flows and statistical relationships among various sectors of the economic system.
v. It becomes possible to forecast the trends of economy more accurately.

vii. The economy is divided into the following sectors (i) Firms, (ii) Households, (iii) Government, (iv) Rest of the world and (v) Capital sector.

(i) The saving function is S = -200 + 0.1Y.
(ii) Since Y = C + S then C = Y - (-200 + 0.1Y).
(iii) This reduces to C = 200 + 9Y.

\(r=\frac { \sum { xy } }{ \sqrt { { \sum { x } }^{ 2 }-\sum { { y }^{ 2 } } } } Where\quad X=(X-\bar { X } ),y=\sum { (y-\bar { y } ) } \)

Applying formula
\(r=\frac { \sum { xy } }{ \sqrt { { \sum { x } }^{ 2 } } \sqrt { \sum { { y }^{ 2 } } } } =\frac { 25 }{ \sqrt { 32 } \sqrt { 182 } } =\frac { 25 }{ 5.66x13.49 } =\frac { 25 }{ 76.35 } \)
r = 0.327, The car is getting old in years the cost of maintenane is also increasing. The age of Car and its maintenance are postively correlated.

I. Classification on the Basis of Benefit:

Types of Exchange Rate:
(i) Nominal Exchange Rate
(ii) Real Exchange Rate
(iii) Nominal Effective Exchange Rate
(iv) Real Effective Exchange Rate If 1US Dollar = Rs.75 
(i) Nominal Exchange Rate:
Nominal Exchange Rate =\(\cfrac { 75 }{ 1 } \)
This is the bilateral nominal exchange rate.
(ii) Real Exchange Rate:
(1) Real Exchange Rate = \(\cfrac { { eP }_{ r } }{ P } \)
P = Price level in India
PF = Price level in abroad (say US)
e = Nominal Exchange Rate 
(2) If a pen costs Rs.50 in India and it costs 5 USD in the US.
\(\therefore \text {Real Exchange Rate}=\cfrac { 75\times 5 }{ 50 } =7.5\)
(3) If real exchange rate is equal to 1, the currencies are at purchasing power parity.
(4) If the price of the pen in US is 0:66 USD, then the real exchange rate

Then it could be said that the USD and Indian rupee are at purchasing power parity.

(i) Strong economic growth or high GDP growth leads to excessive use of resources.
(ii) Natural resources are essential inputs for production in many sectors;
(iii) Production and consumption lead to pollution and other pressures on the environments.

(v) There is the need to balance growth and the sustainability of eco system.
(vi) So we have to ensure our sustainable existence, consume less and curb economic growth.

Law
According to Keynes, "men are disposed as a rule and on the average to increase their consumption as their income increases but not by as much as the increáse in their income".
Propositions
1. When income increases, consumption expenditure also increases, but by a smaller amount
(a) When income increases from 120 to 180; consumption also increases from 120 to 170 but the increase in consumption is less than the increase in income, 10 is saved.
2. The increased income will be divided in some proportion between consumption expenditure and saving
(a) When income increases to 180 and 240, it is divided between consumption (170 and 220) and saving (10 and 20)
3. Incrcascs in income always lead to in incrcase in both consumption and saving
(a) Increases in income to 180) and 240; lead to increased consumption 170 and 220; increased saving 10 and 20.
(b) It is clear from the widening area below the C curve and the saving gap between 45^o line and C curve.
 

Cyclical unemployment:
(i) During the downturn phase (recession and depression) of trade cycle, income and output fall leading to cyclical unemployment.
(ii) It is caused by deficiency of effective demand
Structural unemployment:
(i) Unemployment due to massive and deep rooted changes in economic structure leads to structural unemployment.
(ii) Lack of demand for the product or shift in demand to other products cause this type of unemployment.
(iii) (e.g.) rise in demand for mobile phones has adversely affected the demand for cameras, tape recorders
Disguised unemployment:
(i) It occurs in agriculture when more people are there than required. Even if some workers are withdrawn, production does not suffer.
Actual marginal productivity is zero, less or negative.
(i) Seasonal unemployment
1. In agriculture and agro based industries like sugar, production activities are carried out only in some seasons.
2. These industries offer employment only during that season in a year.
3. People remain unemployed during the off season.
4. Seasonal unemployment takes place from demand side also (eg) ice cream industry, holiday resorts
(ii) Frictional unemployment (Temporary unemployment)
1. It arises due to imbalance between supply of labour and demand for labour.
2. It is because of immobility of labour, lack of necessary skills, break down of machinery, shortage of raw materials.
3. The persons who lose jobs and in search of jobs also come under frictional unemployment
(iii) Educated unemployment
1. Educated people are underemployed or unemployed when qualification does not match the job.
2. Faulty education system, lack of employable skills, mass student turnout and preference for white collar jobs are highly responsible for educated unemployment.

Introduction:
National income can be measured by the social accounting method. Under this method, the transactions among various sectors such as firms, households, government are recorded and their interrelationships traced.
Firms:
undertake productive activities. They employ factors of production to produce goods and services.
Households:
Households are consuming entities. They represent the factors of production, who receive payment for services rendered by them to firms. (i) Households consume the goods produced by the firms. There is a circular flow of money between these two groups.
Government:
The Government sector refers to the economic transactions of public bodies at all levels-centre, state and local. Their purchases may be financed through taxation, public borrowings. The government provides public health, education. They satisfy the collective wants of society. But Post Offices and railways are separated from the Government sector and included as "Firms".
Rest of the world:
It relates to international economic transactions - income, export, import external loan transaction, and allied overseas investment income and payments.
Capital sector:
(i) Capital sector refers to saving and investment activities. It includes the transactions of banks, insurance corporations, financial houses. These are not included under "Firms".
(ii) The economy is also divided into primary, secondary tertiary and quaternary sectors.
Conclusion:
The social accounting framework is useful for economists as well as policy makers, because it represents the major economic flows and statistical relationships among various sectors of the economic system. It is possible to forecast the trends of economy more accurately.

There are two main approaches to the concept of development viz
i) the traditional approach and
ii) the new welfare-oriented approach.

i. According to the classicals, the wages and prices are flexible.
ii. This flexibility ensures equilibrium in market. In other words, demand will be equal to supply in all markets.
iii. All disequilibrium conditions in the market will be corrected with the wageprice flexibility

The constant extraneous variables such as income distribution, tastes, habits, social customs, price movements, population growth, etc. do not change and consumption depends on income alone.

(i) In economic system both private and public sectors co-exist.
(ii) It work together towards economic development.

(i) Environment means "all the conditions, circumstances, and influences surrounding and affecting the development of an organism or group of organisms".
(ii) It also means that the complex of physical, chemical and biotic factors that act upon an organism or an ecological community ultimately determine its form and survival.
