Question : Assertion (A): Demand deposits is a Non-Legal Tender Money or Optional Money.
Reason(R): Depositors are given a cheque facility to withdraw money from their account or to make payments in case of demand deposits.
Option 1: Both Assertion (A) and Reason(R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A)
Option 2: Both Assertion (A) and Reason(R) are true, but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A)
Option 3: Assertion (A) is true, but Reason (R) is false.
Option 4: Assertion (A) Is false, but Reason (R) is true.
Correct Answer: Both Assertion (A) and Reason(R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A)
Solution : The correct answer is (a). Both Assertion (A) and Reason(R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
Assertion is true because demand deposits are not legal tender. Legal tender is money that is accepted by law as payment for all debts. Demand deposits are not legal tender because they cannot be used to pay taxes or other government obligations.
Reason is also true because demand deposits are typically held in checking accounts, which allow depositors to write checks to pay for goods and services. This means that demand deposits can be used as a medium of exchange, which is one of the functions of money.
The fact that demand deposits are not legal tender does not mean that they are not money. Demand deposits are still a form of money because they can be used as a medium of exchange and they can also be used to store value.
Therefore, the answer is (a). Both Assertion (A) and Reason(R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

Option 1: Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
Option 2: Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
Option 3: Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is False
Option 4: Assertion (A) is False but Reason (R) is True
Question : Assertion (A): Demand Deposits are considered a convenient mode of payment for the execution of even high-value transactions.

Option 1: Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A)
Option 2: Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A)
