[anon_econ]

Thanks sir. U r the best! :D

[ritu]

thanks sir....:))))))))))

[ritu]

sir how do we get answer to q 21
and sir for q 38 they are asking for value added answer here is 600 coz 450 is value added by steel making firm and 150 is value added by worker....right sir?????

[faizy]

Thankzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz a lot sir......thank u........

[aastha]

@ amit sir

thanks a lot sir for uploading the answer key ,,,

sir could you please explain the difference between ICOR and capital output ratio and how does the harrod domar equation change in presence of ICOR ??

thanks in advance

[sikander]

will u pls send ans key of last 10 year quest papers

Question 51 from JNU 2010
If x < y + ε > 0, then
(a) x > y
(b) x ≤ y
(c) x > 0 > y
(d) x < 0 < y

Consider x=-2, y=1 and e=2. Then (a) doesn't hold.
Consider x=4, y=2, e=3. Then (b) doesn't hold.
Consider x=-2, y=1 and e=3. Then (c) hold.
Consider x=2, y=3 and e=1 then (d) doesn't hold.

Any suggestions anyone? How can all the options be wrong? And there are no restrictions on the values of x and y, so nothing seems wrong with the counter-examples...

[anon_econ]

if x exceeds y then u can find some epsilon for which x>y+epsilon. so x<=y. for example y is 2 and x is 2.00002. even then x>y+epsilon for epsilon=0.00001.

[PREETY BHOGAL]

sir can u plzzz post the link for 2011 jnu paper...i am nt getting it anywhere...
plzz!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PREETY BHOGAL]

anyone here.... if u have 2011 jnu paper..plzzz post the link or mail me the paper at [e-mail]

[PREETY BHOGAL]

THNX A LOT VASUDHA :)

[aditi5000]

Ok, so the focus of the question is on how the value of epsilon can keep changing in accordance with the inequality at hand to always give us x <= y.. Got it, thank you Vasudha! :D

[MONIKA]

labor cost is not never included in the value added..

[ritu]

hi vasudha:)
if x=100 y=-100  e=300
then b doesnt hold!!!!!!
m still confused....
