Our textbook defines an agency problem as a “conflict between the goals of a firm’s owners and its managers” (Megginson & Smart, 2009). It then defines agency costs as dollar costs that arise because of this conflict.

In the modern day, many societies are beginning to change and mould around modern beliefs and customs, leading to a range of ways to distribute power in society. Each one has it’s own merits and demerits, though the disadvantages are more prominent than others. I will focus on three of the most interesting examples of governmental systems; an extreme right wing Anarchy; a centralised one, Monarchy; an extreme left wing, Autocracy. All of these have many different ways of power distribution: Autocracy lays all the power on one person, Anarchy has no governmental structure and Monarchy has a group of people leading the country; and each of these have many disadvantages.

UNDER the scheme, since the public funds are fairly easily available i.e 80 % of the project cost is provided by central and 10 % by state government, hence it is also observed that most of the ULBs are going in for long-distance expensive projects for water supply.

Company has many advantages and disadvantages. One of the greatest advantages is limited liability whereby the shareholders only risk whatever amount they invested to the business and does not risk their personal possession in case if the business fails. Unlike sole proprietor and partnership are each liable for all the debts of the business (unlimited liability). For example, if the asset of the sole proprietor and partnership cannot settle the debt, the creditor can go after their personal asset (i.e house, bank account etc). On the other hand, the shareholder, investor or partner are not liable if the company runs out of funds.
