kaheart [24]

Answer:

They should be planned for.

Explanation:

Unexpected expenses include emergencies and other unforeseen costs that a person incurs in day to day activities. These unexpected expenses must be paid for, which means resources must come from somewhere to effect the payments.

The best way to cater to unexpected expenses is to include them in the budget. Contingencies is the term used to describe funds kept aside to settle unexpected expenses. Without a contingency arrangement, unexpected expenses will affect the budget and a person's ability to pay normal bills.

kirill115 [55]

Answer: Option (A) is correct.

Explanation:

Each of the buyer and seller are small when we are relating it with the whole market. so, there will be no power in the hands of a single decision maker and if a firm wants to change their prices then it will not have any influence on the market price. In a competitive market, there are large number of buyers and sellers, thus, one buyer or seller doesn't have any impact on the market price.

Answer:

D). All of the above statements are correct.

Explanation:

Simulation can be described as the process designed to offer a realistic experience in order to know the actual mechanism of a specific behavior or outcome.

As per the question, 'all the given statements' are asserting true claims with respect to simulation. Simulation is characterized as an effective process for evaluating large and complicated actual-world circumstances as it is a realistic environment to know the truth and actual causes behind those situations. Such situations cannot be assessed truly using the traditional quantitative models of analysis. It is able to provide answers to the questions like 'what-if' as it observes the realistic nature and promotes effective decision-making. It is also employed to investigate the collective effect of specific variables or components to categorize them as important or not-important as it closely observes every aspect. Thus, option D is the correct answer.
