Monetarists Keynesians Monetarism is a school of economic
thought that emphasizes the role ofgovernments in controlling the
amount of money in circulation. It is the view that variation in
the money supply has majorinfluences on national output in theshort run and the price level overlonger periods.
Keynesianism is the view that in theshort run, especially duringrecessions, economic output is
strongly influenced by aggregatedemand (total spending in theeconomy).

Adam Smith - was a Scottish moral philosopher and a pioneer of politicaleconomy; one of the key figures of the Scottish Enlightenment, Adam Smith is bestknown for two classic works: The Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759), andAn Inquiryinto the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations (1776).
Smith is cited as the "father of modern economics" and is still among the mostinfluential thinkers in the field of economics today.
Alfred Marshall - is known as one of the founders of economics. Marshallsinterest in utilitarianism, specifically ethics, reflects the influence of his early socialphilosophy to his later activities and writings.
His book, Principles of Economics (1890), was the dominant economictextbook in England for many years. It brings the ideas of supply and demand, marginalutility, and costs of production into a coherent wholesome.

Robert Malthus - was a British cleric and scholar, influential in the fields ofpolitical economy and demography.
Malthus became widely known for his theories about change in population. HisAn Essay on the Principle of Population observed that sooner or later population willbe checked by famine and disease. Food production grows in arithmetic progressionwhereas the population grows in geometric progression.
David Ricardo - was a British political economist. His most importantcontribution was the theory of comparative advantage, a fundamental argument in favorof free trade among countries and of specialization among individuals.
According to his Theoryof Rent,rent is the portion of the produce of earth tothe landlord, for its original and indestructible powers of the soil.
Ricardo argued that there is mutual benefit from trade (or exchange) even if one
party (e.g. resource-rich country) is more productive in every possible area than itstrading counterpart (e.g. resource-poor country), as long as each concentrates on theactivities , where it has a relative productivity advantage.

Jean Baptiste Say(J.B Say) - was a French economist and businessman. Hehad classically liberal views and argued in favor of competition, free trade, and lifting
restraints on business.He is best known due to Say's Law, which is named after him and at times credited
to him, but while he discussed and popularized it, he did not originate it.
John Stuart Mill (J.S Mill) was an English philosopher, political economistand civil servant. He has been called "the most influential English-speaking philosopher
of the nineteenth century.Mill's conception of liberty justified the freedom of the individual in opposition
to unlimited state control. He was a proponent of utilitarianism, an ethical theorydeveloped by Jeremy Bentham.

LAW OF DEMAND The law of demand says that ceteris paribus when the
price of a product is high, quantity demanded is low,and vice versa.
In other words, other factors remaining the same, thedemand for a product is inversely related to the price.

DEMAND FORECASTING
TECHNIQUE:- Normal equation:
Equation of straight line
y = a+bxMultiply both sides with , we get
y = n(a) + (b) x
Multiply both sides with x, we get
xy = n(a)x + (b) x2
This is also called as regression method.

ELASTICITY OF DEMAND Elasticity is the proportional (or percent) change in
one variable due to the proportionate change inanother variable.
The formula for elasticity is:
E = percentage change in x
percentage change in y

LAW OF SUPPLY The law of supply states that, other factors remaining
constant, higher the price, greater is the quantitysupplied and lower the price, lower is the quantitysupplied.
The supply function is represented as:
SX=f(PX), other things remaining constant
Whereas,SX=Amount of product X supplied; and
PX=Price of the product

ELASTICITY OF SUPPLY Elasticity of supply refers to the percentage change in
quantity supplied of a product due to one percentchange in its price. This can be denoted in an equationform
E= % change in the quantity supplied of a product
% change in its price
= Q/Q = Q x P
P/P P QWhere,
E=elasticity, P= original price, Q= original quantity.
P= change in price, Q= change in quantity.

ISOQUANTS The Isoquant Curve is a
graph showing possibleinputs after certain levels
of output.
The Isoquant Curve helpsfirms adjust their inputagainst their output.
This is a method used tomeasure the influence ofinputs on production levelsand output possibilities.

LAW DIMINISHING MARGINAL UTILTIY The law of diminishing
marginal utility states thatif a consumer goes onconsuming more units of a
particular product at agiven point of time, histotal utility increases butonly at a diminishing rate.
In other words, the desire
of that product goes ondecreasing as he consumesmore and more units ofthat product.

LAW OF DIMINISHING MARGINAL PRODUCTWhen one of the factors
of production is heldfixed in supply,
successive additions ofthe other factors willlead to an increase inreturns up to a point, but
beyond this pointreturns will diminish.

Production function The production function
explains relationship betweenthe maximum quantity ofoutput that can be processedfrom given amounts of
various inputs for a giventechnology, which can beexpressed in the form of amathematical model,schedule (table) or graph.
Q=f(K,L)where, capital(K) andLabor(L) are categorizedunder the productionfunction Q.

Types of Production FunctionThere are two types of production functions.
i) Cobb Douglas production function:-
It is widely used to represent the technological relationshipbetween the amounts of two or more inputs, particularly physical
capital and labor, and the amount of output that can be producedby those inputs.
It is given as
P(L, K) = Lk -1
Where,
P = total production in a year
L = labour input
K = capital input
and are the output elasticity of labour and capital, respectively.
,-change of o/p with respect to i/p

Constant elasticity of substitution (CES) is a property of
some production functions and utility functions; more precisely, itrefers to a particular type of aggregator function which combinestwo or more types of consumption, or two or more types ofproductive inputs into an aggregate quantity.
This aggregator function exhibits constant elasticity of
substitution.ii) CES production function:-
The CES production function is a type of production functionthat displays constant elasticity of substitution.
In other words, the production technology has a constant
percentage change in factor (e.g. labour and capital) proportionsdue to a percentage change in marginal rate of technicalsubstitution.

Factors Of ProductionAccording to the traditional classification, there are four factors
of production. They are
Land
Labor Capital
Organization/Entrepreneurship

Land Land as a factor of production refers to all those natural resources or
gifts which are provided free to man.
It includes several things such as Land surface, air, water, minerals,forests, rivers etc.

Labor Labor is the human input into the production process.
Alfred Marshall defines labor as the use or exertion of body and mind,partly or wholly, with a view to secure an income apart from thepleasure derived from the work.
The concept of Division of Laborwas introduced by Adam Smith inhis book An Enquiry into the Nature and Causes of Wealth ofNations.

Capital Capital is the man made physical goods used to produce other goods
and services a.k.a., money.
According to Marshall, Capital consists of those kinds of wealth otherthan free gifts of nature, which yield income.
Forms of Capital Physical or Material Resources.
Money Capital or Monetary Resources.
Human Capital or Human Resources.

Organization or Entrepreneurship An entrepreneur is a person who combines the different factors of
production(land, labor and capital), in the right proportion andinitiates the production and also bears the risk involved in it. They areotherwise called as Organizers.
Functions of Entrepreneur Identifying the Profitable Investible Opportunities.
Deciding the size of unit of production.
Deciding the location of the production Unit.
Identifying the optimum combination of factors of production.
Making Innovations. Deciding the reward payment.
Taking risks and facing Uncertainties.

OLIGOPOLY Oligopoly is a form of
imperfect competition inwhich a few firms produceeither a homogenousproduct or products whichare close but not perfectsubstitutes for each other.
The number of firms may
vary from two to ten firms. A market in which there
are only two players iscalled DUOPOLY.

It explains the interdependence of the firms in a noligopoly and why firms stick to one price.
Cartel formation:-
Cartels are formed when competing oligopolists enterinto some kind of an agreement in order to maximize jointprofits.
joint-profit maximization sharing of the market. Price Leadership:-
One firm sets the price and the others follow, becauseit is advantageous to them or they prefer to avoiduncertainty.
