Direction: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
Assertion (A): Increasing returns to a factor is a short run phenomenon.
Reason (R): Greater application of the variable factor ensures fully utilization of the fixed factor.
Direction: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
Assertion (A): Average product increases only when marginal product increases.
Reason (R): AP increases so long as MP is greater than AP, whether MP is rising or falling.

Direction: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
Assertion (A): Increasing returns to a factor is a short run phenomenon.
Reason (R): Greater application of the variable factor ensures fully utilization of the fixed factor.
Direction: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
Assertion (A): The percentage change in quantity supplied is 20% and the percentage change in price is 20%. Thus the elasticity of supply is 1.
Reason (R): The commodity supplied has unitary elastic supply and its supply curve will be upward rising.
Direction: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
Assertion (A): The supply of food grains is inelastic.
Reason (R): The supply of food grain is not responsive to the price of the food grain.
Direction: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
Assertion (A): Elasticity of supply of gold is unitary elastic.
Reason (R): The unitary elastic supply is equal to 1.
Direction: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
Assertion (A): Average Cost will rise only when Marginal Cost rises.
Reason (R): Rise in AC takes place when MC is greater than AC and not necessarily when MC rises.
Direction: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
Assertion (A): When Average Cost is constant, AC curve is at its minimum point.
Reason (R): At this point, MC curve cuts AC curve, which implies MC = AC.
Direction: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
Assertion (A): The difference between AC and AVC is due to AFC.
Reason (R): As output increases AFC decreases, so the difference between AC and AVC decreases.
Direction: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
Assertion (A): With increase in the subsidy, the supply curve shifts to the left.
Reason (R): The government subsidy makes the goods more profitable for the producers to produce them.
Direction: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
Assertion (A): The supply curve of a good shift to the right when prices of other goods fall.
Reason (R): When price of other good falls, it becomes less profitable to produce them in place of the given good.
Direction: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
Assertion (A): When the price of the goods falls, the supply curve shifts to the right.
Reason (R): When price of the goods falls, the producers sell less as there is a positive relation between price and quantity supplied.
Direction: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
Assertion (A): A firm is able to sell more quantity of a good only by lowering the price.
Reason (R): The firm’s Marginal Revenue, as he goes on selling, would be less than Average revenue.
Direction: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
Assertion (A): When 5 units of a good are sold at ₹ 20, total revenue is ₹ 100.
Reason (R): Total revenue is the revenue earned by the firm from the total amount of product sold by it.
Direction: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
Assertion (A): When MR is positive, TR tends to increase.
Reason (R): As under monopoly, more of the commodity can be sold by lowering down the price of the commodity. Hence AR curve is downward sloping from left to right.
