Poverty is said to exist when people lack the means to satisfy their basic needs. ... Poverty has been associated, for example, with poor health, low levels of education or skills, an inability or an unwillingness to work, high rates of disruptive or disorderly behaviour, and improvidence. Inadequate food and poor or limited access to clean water- relocation in search of food and clean water drains limited resources (especially in poor economies), causing the poor to get poorer as they seek basic necessities for survival. ... Illiteracy fosters poverty.

When banking habits of people improve, they start holding less money as cash-in-hand. Instead, more and more money is deposited with the commercial banks. Accordingly, cash reserves of the commercial banks start rising. Higher cash reserves of the banks enable them to deposit more funds with the RBI as CRR deposits. If CRR remains constant, higher CRR-deposits with the RBI give the commercial banks legal authority to create more credit by way of loans /credit. Accordingly, availability of credit from the commercial banks is increased.

A jump in the US dollar might bring smiles and sorrow to different people such that a jump in US dollar reflects the appreciation in US dollars and depreciation in the domestic currency. So, this will be good news for the exporters of the domestic country since now the domestic products will become cheaper in the market and they will be able to sell more. On the other hand, it will bring sorrow to the importers as now the imports will decline. This is because with an appreciation of US dollars, the foreign goods will become more expensive. So, all in all the exports will increase and the imports will decline.

Legal reserve ratio refers to the minimum fraction of deposits which the banks are mandate to keep as cash themselves. The legal reserve ratio is fixed by Central bank. Legal Reserve Ratio has two components:
Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR)-It refers to cash reserves of Commercial Banks with the Central Bank as a percentage of their deposits.
Statutory Liquidity Ratio (SLR) refers to reserves in the form of liquid assets (including (i) cash, (ii) gold, and (iii) approved securities) with the Commercial Banks themselves, as a percentage of their total deposits.
Both CRR and SLR are fixed by the Central Bank, and both are a legal binding for the Commercial Banks. In this sense, both CRR and SLR are legal reserve ratios.

Quartiles divide the entire set into four equal parts. So, there are three quartiles, first, second and third represented by Q1, Q2 and Q3, respectively. Q2 is nothing but the median, since it indicates the position of the item in the list and thus, is a positional average. To find quartiles of a group of data, we have to arrange the data in ascending order.

Paradox of thrift. Since start of human civilisation it was considered a virtue to keep consumption level at the minimum but the lasting effects and chain reactions of keeping consumption in check were not realised. People were taught that thrift or savings are good because a penny saved today will bring increased income. In this connection, Keynes pointed out paradox of thrift and showed that as people become more thrifty, they end up saving less or same as before. If all the people of an economy increased the proportion of income which is saved (i.e., MPS), the value of savings in the economy will not increase, rather it will decline or remain unchanged. Let us understand this statement with the help of the figure (a).
In Fig (a), initial saving curve is SS and investment curve is II. Economy attains equilibrium (saving = investment) at E and equilibrium level of income is OY. Now, suppose the society decides to become thrifty and increases saving by, say, AE. As a result saving curve shifts upward to S1S1 intersecting investment curve II at E1 Unplanned inventories will increase and firms will cut down production and employment and move to new equilibrium E1 The Figure shows that in the end, planned saving has fallen from AY to E1Y1. Notice at new point of equilibrium E1,, the investment level and also realised saving remain the same (E1Y1) but level of income has fallen from OY to OY1. The decline in equilibrium level of income shows the paradox of thrift as the reverse process of multiplier has worked on reducing consumption expenditure. In fact, increased saving is virtually a withdrawal from circular flow of income.

Banker’s bank functions of the Central Bank:
The Central Bank is an apex bank of all banks in the country. It has almost the same relationship with other banks in the country as a commercial bank has with its customers. The Central Bank keeps some cash balances of the commercial banks as a compulsory deposit. This is to help them during financial crises. In this way, the central bank acts as a custodian of cash reserves of commercial banks. It assists these banks through discounting of approved securities and bills of exchange.

Absolute poverty is a defined base, whereas relative poverty can change based on the society you are observing. So although relative poverty in the US can define part of the population as in poverty, they can still be living above the absolute poverty line. Absolute Poverty is used to describe a condition where an individual does not have the financial means to obtain commodities to sustain life. Relative Poverty refers to the standard of living compared to economic standards of living within the same surroundings.
