  1. Two developing countries A and B have aproblem of budget deficit.A decides,ceteris peribus, to finance it basing on the money borrowed from developing countries.country B prefer to finance it by increasing taxes and cutting off government expenditures. what do you think should be the problems each country meet after implementing its decision?

  2. Can you elaborate “Depression and global scenario” for the purpose of project work and presentation.

  3. Please I need a clear distinction between OLIGOPOLY AND MONOPOLISTIC COMPETITION. How many firms or company fall under the two?

  4. What are the contributions of the different sectors(primary,secondary & Tertiary) to the nigeria’s economy from 2005 till date?

  5. I Study economics independently at Marginal Revolution University.
    But I am stuck with few of the very first Concepts. Those are:

    Demand and Supply curve Shifts in Isolation.

    Demand Curve Shifts:
    When there is a population rise, then demand curve shifts up and to the right. Which implies there is a increase in price and quantity demanded of the product. Increase in Quantity demanded is logical because there are more number of people than before, But Why does per unit Price of the good Increase?

    Supply Curve Shifts:
    When the input cost rises the supply curve shifts up and to the left. Which implies that there is an increase in price and decrease in quantity Supplied. Increase in price is obvious because it is expensive to produce an unit than before, but why does the Quantity supplied decrease? If your answer is that with lower profits producers are motivated to produce less than before, aggregate profit would be more in latter case than former.

    Please clarify my doubts and help me to move on to the fascinating world of economics further Sir!!
