टिप्पणी लिखिए

उत्तर

In financial markets, there are two players i.e. the households and the business firms. Here the households act as the suppliers of funds and the business firms make the demand. Now, we know that the price is determined when demand meets supply, so in such markets as well, wherever the demand meets supply, the price for that financial asset that is being traded-in that market is determined.

In the meeting, Sanjeev, the North Zone marketing head suggested that they need to visit hospitals to explain personally to the hospital staff who would be using the machine since the machine is sophisticated. He also suggested that additional staff may also be recruited for the same.

Rishu, another zonal head, was of this opinion that since a large amount of money had been spent on the purchase of the machines, additional funds were not available for recruiting the personnel as suggested by Sanjeev.

order was not large, a detailed study of the factors determining the choice of channels of distribution was required before making the right choice.
