You are welcome to ask questions on Economics.
I will post the answer on this blog, for everyone to benefit from.
I shall try to answer the economics question and / or point to other resources but please bear in mind.
- The replies will be guidance and not for duplication. Your essays should always be your own work.
- My speciality is economics for British A Level standard. My university economics is rusty in parts, because generally I don’t use it in teaching A level economics.
- I can’t guarantee to always give answers it also depends on my time schedule.
- The aim is not to do people’s homework for them, but, help in the understanding of economic concepts.
- The answers will not necessarily be complete. I know several of my essays on this site could be improved.
- Please Write the Questions clearly and with proper spelling. Some questions I have not answered because they were not clear what was meant.
- I will answer as a new post. Check home page of blog for new post. With question and answers

What are the primary methods for utility elicitation, and what are the strengths and weaknesses of each of them?
Also how are utilities calculated using a survey-based quality-of-life instrument?

hi,
i know this will be a very naive question but i am new to economics.
this is a basic doubt,
i read today that US owes an overall debt of 16 trillion, similarly india is also too worried on its fiscal deficit, i think that every country owes some debt. so if every one owes some money, then where is that money coming from???, or in other words, if everyone’s account balance is in -ive then where is that money come from and to whom do they have to pay it back to???
Is this possible? what markets do behave like this?

Hi.
I have a question which really i couldnt find any real evidence to find out the answer.
The question is that if a company or bussiness ( giant or small) can have 60% or even more annual profit?
I mean that i see mutual funds offering really high percent of profit annually but i dont know if it is reliable and practical or not. And i couldnt find out that how much did giant companies like Shell , Woodside ,Apple or Toyota did profit last year .
Where can i find out about their profitibility?
Another problem i have is that i could find some numbers showing how much for example Shell profit last year but these numbers didnt clean out about the percentage they benefited.
Thanks in advance.
