Jnu sss 2015

[Rootz]

Sir,
For the second question in JNU 2015 SIS, is the answer A or D? When we calculate per capita income, should we take NNP or GDP? Only if we take GDP will their per capita incomes be the same right? Otherwise it would be different right? So is it A or D?

And for the 3rd question in the same question paper. Is it not C?

[Eco16]

Sir can you please help in solving Q11 of this paper?
I know it is from Baumol -Tobin , but don't know how to proceed?

[nishtha92]

I am not sure if it is correct but I am getting the answer for question 11 as D. I just calculated it as a decreasing AP for one month and then calculated for the whole year. Though I am not getting exact 1500. it's 1550. Can anybody confirm it please.

Hi!
For 21, will the real exchange rate have actually appreciated by 15% because of the 5% relative inflation?

Please explain a small thing to me. In reference to question 21, when we say 'exchange rate of INR relative to India's trading partners' do we mean cost of 1 indian rupee in terms of foreign currency or cost of 1 unit of foreign currency in terms of indian rupee?

Here is how you can solve Q 11: Link

Sir..Please clarify my query regarding Qn 2 too

[Amit Goyal]

Its (a). Both have identical per capita income.

[Rootz]

Than a lot Sir

Guys could you please explain the logic behind q39 and q40. I just can't wrap my head around it.

[Eco16]

THanks a lot sir!!
Sir CAn you please help in solving 3RD,30th and 56th too??

[Amit Goyal]

These are the easiest problems that are asked in this paper. I am amazed that no one here could help you on these :

A 39 (b)

A 40 (a)

Let C denote final consumption expenditure, I denote the Gross Fixed Capital Formation, D denote change in stocks, X be exports, M be Imports and Y be the GDP.

The answer follows from solving this equality twice, separately for both the years:

C+I+D+X-M = Y

[Amit Goyal]

For Q 3: (d) Neither of the above
For Q 30: (b) Mutually exclusive
For Q 56: (a) 16%  [If X is normal with mean (m) = 60 and standard deviation (s) = 20, then Pr(X>m+s) = Pr(X>80)  = 0.16]

[nishtha92]

Can anybody please explain this ?

Answers
58. (b) X is false
59. (c) X is true but Y is false
60. (d) Both X and Z are false
61. (d) Assume that X is false, and Y is true, and deduce a contradiction
