Answer 1

Answer: (A)

It is A because reason correctly explains about assertion. Per capita income is kind of average of incomes which doesn't tell how the income is distributed

Answer 2

A. Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.

Explanation:

• Per capita income defines the annual income of purpose and in an economy.
• However, this is only the monetary measurement of all the financial incomes of a person.
• The per capita income does not include any sort of buffer transaction or other rewards earned by an individual.
• Therefore it does not present a true picture of an earning made by a person during the year.
• Therefore per capita income cannot tell the true distribution of income in any state.
