Question

Assertion (A): Total income is not such a useful measure for comparison between countries.

Reason (R): Countries have different populations, comparing total income will not tell us what an average person is likely to earn.​

Answer 1

Answer:

2 Answers. Since countries have different population, comparing total income will not tell us what an average person is likely to earn.

Countries with higher income are more developed than others with less income. ... Since, countries have different populations, comparing total income will not tell us what an average person is likely to earn. Hence, we compare the average income which is the total income of the country divided by its total population.

Answer 2

Answer:

Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

Explanation:

For comparing countries total income isn't a useful measure because allow us to take an example of Punjab and Kerala in Punjab the per capita income is quite Kerala but the mortality rate( IMR) is additionally more in Punjab as compared to Kerala, and that we know that infant deathrate rate (IMR) means the death of youngsters under the age of 1 year , this might be a results of lack of health facilities. And after we speak about countries a rustic with high population and a rustic with low population in comparison it should be possible the country having low population having a high per capita income if the wages of the people of country are more.

Hence, both assertion and reason are true.
