    Match the given lists and select the correct code for the answer.

    List - I List - II
    a. Utilitarian Approach i. Marginal Rate of Substitution
    b. Ordinal Approach ii. Budget line & Indifference Curve
    c. Price-Consumption Curve iii. U = f (x, y)
    d. Consumer Equilibrium iv. MRSxy = MRSyx
    Solution
    • The Utilitarian Approach assesses an action in terms of its consequences or outcomes; i.e., the net benefits and costs to all stakeholders on an individual level. It strives to achieve the greatest good for the greatest number while creating the least amount of harm or preventing the greatest amount of suffering.
    • In economics, an ordinal utility function is a function representing the preferences of an agent on an ordinal scale. Ordinal utility theory claims that it is only meant to ask which option is better than the other, but it is meaningless to ask how much better it is or how good it is. All of the theories of consumer decision-making under conditions of certainty can be, and typically is, expressed in terms of ordinal utility.
    • Price-Consumption Curve. The Price-consumption curve is a graph that shows how a consumer's consumption choices change when the price of one of the goods changes. It is plotted by connecting the points at which the budget line touches the relevant maximum-utility indifference curve.
    • The state of balance obtained by an end-user of products refers to the number of goods and services they can buy given their existing level of income and the prevailing level of cost prices. Consumer equilibrium permits a customer to get the most satisfaction possible from their income.

    Solution

    Among those who exercised power in the empire were military chiefs who usually controlled forts and had armed supporters. These chiefs often moved from one area to another, and in many cases were accompanied by peasants looking for fertile land on which to settle. These chiefs were known as nayakas and they usually spoke Telugu or Kannada. Many nayakas submitted to the authority of the kings of Vijayanagara but they often rebelled and had to be subdued by military action. The amara-nayaka system was a major political innovation of the Vijayanagara Empire. It is likely that many features of this system were derived from the Iqta system of the Delhi Sultanate. The amara-nayakas were military commanders who were given territories to govern by the Raya. They collected taxes and other dues from peasants, craftspersons and traders in the area. They retained part of the revenue for personal use and for maintaining a stipulated contingent of horses and elephants.
