Outline of CUET Commerce: Accountancy, Business Studies and Economics
What this guide covers

Accountancy

Expect short calculations and conceptual questions from partnership, admission and retirement, company accounts and financial statement analysis. Ratios, sacrificing and gaining ratios, goodwill and share forfeiture are common. Practise quick calculations without full ledger formats.

Business Studies

Questions test concepts and their application: principles of management, functions of management, financial management, marketing and consumer protection. Case-based MCQs ask you to identify a concept from a situation, just like board case studies.

Economics

Macroeconomics brings numericals on national income and the multiplier, plus money and banking and budget concepts. Indian Economic Development questions test facts and reasons. Know key terms precisely.
