Q.3 In the light of Revealed Preference Theory, which of the following axioms are considered? UGC NET [2004]

(a) Rationality
(b) Consistency
(c) Transitivity
(d) Non-satiation

Options:

(A) (a) and (b)

(B) All four

(C) (a) and (c)

(D) (a), (b), and (c)


Explanation

Paul Samuelson's Revealed Preference Theory is based on:

1. Rationality – Consumers choose the most preferred bundle from available alternatives.


2. Consistency – If bundle A is preferred to B once, the consumer should not later prefer B to A under the same conditions.


3. Transitivity – If A is preferred to B and B to C, then A should be preferred to C.



Non-satiation ("more is preferred to less") is not a basic axiom of the original Revealed Preference Theory.

✅ Correct Answer: (D) (a), (b), and (c) are correct

Q.4 Match the Following UGC NET [2004]

Group I

(a) Kinked Demand Curve
(b) Full Cost Pricing
(c) Sales Maximisation
(d) Limit Pricing Model

Group II

(i) Baumol
(ii) Bain
(iii) Sweezy
(iv) Hall & Hitch
(v) Modigliani

Matching

(a) Kinked Demand Curve → Sweezy (iii)

Kinked demand curve theory was developed by Paul Sweezy.


(b) Full Cost Pricing → Hall & Hitch (iv)

Full-cost (mark-up) pricing theory was proposed by Hall & Hitch.


(c) Sales Maximisation → Baumol (i)

William Baumol proposed the Sales Revenue Maximisation model.


(d) Limit Pricing Model → Bain (ii)

Joe S. Bain is associated with the Limit Pricing model.


Therefore:

Group I Group II

(a) Kinked Demand Curve (iii) Sweezy
(b) Full Cost Pricing (iv) Hall & Hitch
(c) Sales Maximisation (i) Baumol
(d) Limit Pricing Model (ii) Bain


✅ Correct Answer: (C)

Q1. The laws of returns to scale assume: UGC NET [2004]

(A) Technique of production is unchanged
(B) All units of factors are homogeneous
(C) Returns are measured in physical terms
(D) All of the above

✅ Answer: (D) All of the above

Explanation:
Returns to scale analyze the effect of proportionately increasing all inputs. The assumptions are:

Production technique remains unchanged.

Factor units are homogeneous.

Output and inputs are measured in physical terms.


Therefore, all three statements are correct.


Q2. Payment of interest as a factor reward is explained by: UGC NET [2004]

(A) Productivity Theory
(B) Abstinence Theory
(C) Time Preference Theory
(D) All of the above

✅ Answer: (D) All of the above

Explanation:
Different economists have explained interest through different theories:

Productivity Theory: Interest arises from the productivity of capital.

Abstinence Theory (Senior): Interest is a reward for saving/abstinence from present consumption.

Time Preference Theory (Fisher): Interest arises because people prefer present consumption over future consumption.


Hence, all of the above theories explain interest, so the correct answer is (D).
