Difference between Expenditure approach and Income Approach
Differentiate Deductive and Inductive Method
A top-down approach that begins with a general theory or hypothesis and then derives specific predictions or implications from that theory.
DM
Using formal logic to make predictions based on these assumptions. These predictions are then tested against real-world data or observations.
DM
Starts with specific observations or data and then seeks to identify patterns or general principles from those observations.
IM
Collecting empirical data, conducting experiments, or analyzing historical economic events to identify regularities, correlations, or trends.
IM
Represents the satisfaction or happiness an individual derives from consuming a good or service.
U
The total satisfaction or happiness a person derives from consuming a certain quantity of a good or service.
TU
The additional satisfaction or happiness gained from consuming one more unit of a good or service.
MU
This law states that as a person consumes more units of a good, the additional satisfaction (marginal utility) from each additional unit tends to decrease.
Dimineshing Marginal Utility
Economic strategy in which firms attempt to make their products or services appear distinct from those of their competitors.
