Economics

What do you mean by monopolistic competition?

Monopolistic competition characterizes an industry in which many firms offer products or services that are similar, but not perfect substitutes. Barriers to entry and exit in a monopolistic competitive industry are low, and the decisions of any one firm do not directly affect those of its competitors.

What is oligopoly in economics?

Oligopoly markets are markets dominated by a small number of suppliers. They can be found in all countries and across a broad range of sectors. Some oligopoly markets are competitive, while others are significantly less so, or can at least appear that way.

What is perfect competition in simple words?

perfect competition is a type of market form in which there are many companies that sell the same product or service and no one has enough market power to be able to set prices on the product or service without losing business.

 

Depletion method

Depletion is an accrual accounting technique used to allocate the cost of extracting natural resources such as timber, minerals, and oil from the earth. Like depreciation and amortization, depletion is a non-cash expense that lowers the cost value of an asset incrementally through scheduled charges to income.

Time liabilities & demand liabilities:

Time liabilities refer to the liabilities which the commercial banks are liable to repay to the customers after an agreed period, (FD) and demand liabilities are customer deposits which are repayable on demand (saving account)

Poem 1 - On His Blindness - by John Milton (Sem IV)

John Milton ’s poem “On His Blindness” is an autobiographical sonnet in which Milton meditates on his own loss of sight. For most of his life, Milton had been able to see perfectly, but his late-night reading and writing on behalf of the government of the short-lived English Republic, in which he held a very prominent position, helped ruin his eyesight. This sonnet—written in the “Petrarchan” rhyme scheme associated with the fourteenth-century Italian poet Francesco Petrarca—is divided into an eight-line “octave” and a six-line “sestet.” The octave rhymes  abba abba . The sestet rhymes  cde cde . The sonnet is, therefore, a typical Petrarchan sonnet in form, but in subject matter, the poem departs from the topics usually associated with Petrarchan poems. Petrarch (the English version of Petrarca’s name) was most famous for writing about love; Milton departs from that conventional topic to deal with a very practical, very physical problem, but a problem with many broa...

Poem 2 - Solitude - by Alexander Pope (Sem IV)

“Ode on Solitude” is a poem written by Alexander Pope. In this poem, the Pope expresses his desire to lead a quiet and secluded life, with minimal assets. The poet prefers to have just a few acres of land. He would not like to go anywhere out of his native region. He would like to breathe the air of his ancestral place. He wants to have a comfortable and self-sufficient life. He would get milk from the herds, food from the fields, wool for clothing from the sheep. He prefers to be under the shadow of trees during summer, and use the wood to make fire during the winter. All that required is good health, peace of mind and quietness.  He would spend his days in study and leisure, and live a life of innocence and thought. The final note is that the poet would like to live an oblivious life, with no necessity to be mourned or missed once he passes away.
