Amazing things of Amazon

Image
  Why the name “AMAZON” The company named as “ Cadabra ” by Jeff Bezos after the magic slogan of “ Abra Cadabra ”. When he first mentioned this to his lawyer over the phone, he misheard this as “ Cadaver ” and immediately he realized that the name is not going to work Bezos had the customer-centric approach to the business, right from the start. So, he had proposed to change the name to “Relentless Inc”, a way of saying that the company would be relentless in its approach to customer satisfaction.

A person in South India needs food but may want rice, Sāmbhar and curry. Our wants are shaped by our society. Demands are wants for specific products backed by an ability to pay.

To make this easier to understand, let’s see below: I need to have rice to live – Needs  But I need to have Biryani – Wants  And I am able to have and want some

Similarly, a depreciation of the exchange rate will also lead to an increase in the cost of buying imports. All these will help to reduce current account deficit and fall in demand for imports. Therefore, in theory, a depreciation in the exchange rate should improve the curre
