HPH Chapter Preview Managerial Economics by Dr. D. BOSE

Managerial Economics, Business Economics, Economics for Business and Management, Economics of Firms, Economics of Business Enterprise, Economics for Managers, Economics of Business Decisions and Economics for Decision-making are the synonyms of the paper designed as the basic subject in Commerce, Applied Economics and Business Management Courses and in Professional Courses like B.E., ICWA and CA. Even though there are books written by foreign as well as Indian authors available on the subject, they do not meet the requirements of an average student. Therefore, this book has been written keeping this point in mind.
