Answer: Disagree.
Reason: 1. Index numbers measure changes in a variable relative to a reference period. 2. This reference period is called the base year. 3. Without a base year (denoted as '0'), we cannot compare the current year's (denoted as '1') data to measure the extent of change. 4. A base year is essential for calculation.

iii. On-Demand Economy:
On-demand economy is defined as the economic activity created by digital market places and technology companies to fulfill consumer demand via immediate access to goods and services. The on-demand economy is also sometimes referred as the "access economy" because these companies provide outlets to the wholesalers, retailers and also consumers, the facilities of goods and services.
With consumers behaviour changing to prioritize fast, simple and efficient experiences, convenience, speed and simplicity are at the top of the priority list to have their needs met. The case of filling spare time and picking and choosing one's hours is also appealing to those with skills to meet growing consumer demand. So the on-demand economy is growing at an unparalleled pace.
Many of the popular services people use on a regular basis nowadays are examples of the on-demand economy. Ride-sharing platforms Uber and Ola, as well as grocery delivery services such as Big basket, Dunzo and Reliance JIO Mart are just some examples of services with the on-demand economy.

Q.6. Answer the following questions in detail (Any TWO): [16]
i. Explain any two methods of measuring national income.
Answer:
1. Output Method (Product Method):
This method approaches national income from the production side. It measures the total value of final goods and services produced in an economy during a year. It can be calculated using two approaches:
2. Income Method:
This method measures national income from the distribution side. It sums up all factor incomes earned by the owners of factors of production (Land, Labor, Capital, Entrepreneur) during a year.
3. Expenditure Method (Optional Mention): Sum of all expenditure incurred on final goods and services (C + I + G + (X-M)).
1. Output Method (Product Method):
This method approaches national income from the production side. It measures the total value of final goods and services produced in an economy during a year. It can be calculated using two approaches:
- Final Goods Approach: Sum of market value of all final goods and services produced.
- Value Added Approach: Sum of value added at each stage of production to avoid double counting. Value Added = Value of Output - Value of Intermediate Consumption.
2. Income Method:
This method measures national income from the distribution side. It sums up all factor incomes earned by the owners of factors of production (Land, Labor, Capital, Entrepreneur) during a year.
- NI = Rent + Wages + Interest + Profit + Mixed Income + Net Income from Abroad.
- It includes compensation of employees, operating surplus, and mixed income of self-employed.
3. Expenditure Method (Optional Mention): Sum of all expenditure incurred on final goods and services (C + I + G + (X-M)).
ii. Explain the law of diminishing marginal utility and write its assumptions.
Answer:
Statement of the Law:
According to Prof. Alfred Marshall, "Other things remaining constant, the additional benefit which a person derives from a given increase in his stock of a thing, diminishes with every increase in the stock that he already has."
Explanation: As a consumer consumes more units of a commodity, the Marginal Utility (MU) derived from each successive unit goes on diminishing.
Assumptions:
1. Rationality: The consumer is rational and aims to maximize satisfaction.
2. Cardinal Measurement: Utility can be measured numerically.
3. Homogeneity: All units of the commodity consumed are identical in size, shape, color, and taste.
4. Continuity: Consumption is continuous without any time gap.
5. Reasonability: The size of the unit must be reasonable (not too big or too small).
6. Constancy: Income, taste, habits, and preferences remain constant.
7. Divisibility: The commodity is divisible into small units.

iii. Explain the concept of price elasticity of demand and explain the types of price elasticity of demand.
Answer:
Concept: Price Elasticity of Demand refers to the degree of responsiveness of quantity demanded to a change in its price. Formula: \( Ed = \frac{\% \Delta Q}{\% \Delta P} \)
Types of Price Elasticity of Demand:
1. Perfectly Elastic Demand (Ed = \(\infty\)): A slight change in price leads to an infinite change in quantity demanded. The demand curve is a horizontal line parallel to the X-axis.
2. Perfectly Inelastic Demand (Ed = 0): A change in price has no effect on quantity demanded. The demand curve is a vertical line parallel to the Y-axis.
3. Unitary Elastic Demand (Ed = 1): The percentage change in quantity demanded is exactly equal to the percentage change in price. The curve is a rectangular hyperbola.
4. Relatively Elastic Demand (Ed > 1): The percentage change in quantity demanded is greater than the percentage change in price. The curve is flatter.
5. Relatively Inelastic Demand (Ed < 1): The percentage change in quantity demanded is less than the percentage change in price. The curve is steeper.
