I think the government should keep it untouched. Any upturn in the growth momentum is unlikely in view of the projected contraction in global demand during 2009. It will projected the wholesale price index based inflation at around 4 percent by...

RBI should keep all the rates unchanged becoz we will face a inflationary trend at current prices in a couple of months and it will continue to March 2010. Currently the growth rate of broad money (M3) is 20% yoy which is substantial enough to...

Pricing products at costs maximizes the profits as shown below, Profit (∏)= Revenue(R) – Cost(C ) To maximize profit one differentiates with respect to Quantity (Q) and equate the above equation to 0. ie; (dR/dQ )– (dC/dQ) = 0= Marginal Revenue – Marginal cost. So when Marginal revenue is equal to Marginal cost Profit gets maximized. So products must be prized at cost. For example if Variable cost is V and fixed cost is F then product cost = V+F. If X is the total products sold Then X(V+F) is the revenue Then Contribution margin is = X(V-F) – total variable cost Break even point where one realizes the fixed cost or overhead = Contribution margin/ F which is the number of products that m...
