Ducati is best known for high performancemotorcycles characterized by large capacity four-stroke, L-twin
(90 twin-cylinder) engines featuring a desmodromic valvedesign.
It also extensively uses the Trellis Steel Frame configuration,although Ducati's MotoGP project broke with this tradition byintroducing a revolutionary carbon fibre frame for the Ducati
Desmosedici GP9.
CURRENT LINEUP:
Monster,Multistrada,sportClassic,Diavel,Superbike,Hypermotard,streetfighter.
Ducati has a long history with racing, still subscribing to the "winon Sunday, sell on Monday" business model allocating 10% ofthe companies revenue (approximately $60 million) on racing.
Ducati has also won 16 SBK manufacturer worldchampionships for years 19911996, 19982004, 2006, 2008and 2009.
In theAMA Superbike Championship, Ducati has had itsshare of success, with Doug Polen winning the title in 1993 andTroy Corser the following year in 1994. Ducati has entered a bikein every AMA Superbike season since 1986, but withdrew from
the series after the 2006 season.

TREND PROJECTION METHOD
This method makes use of statistical technique known as
the time series. Time series is an ordered sequence ofevents over a period of time relating to a certainvariable.It shows a series of values of a dependent variable as itchanges from one point of time to another. By using timeseries it is possible to project the trend of scales infuture.
Constant Rate of Change:
St = So + bt
Where:
St = value of time series to be forecasted for period t
So = estimated value of time series in the base period
b = is the absolute amount of growth per period
t = time period for which series is to be forecasted
7 S = nSo + b 7 t7 S*t = So7 t + b 7 t

The Problem of an adverse Balance ofPayments (BoP)
India has a chronic deficit on current accounts. What bridges thegap between payments and receipts is mainly external aid tourismearnings, and remittances from Indians working abroad. Heavyimports of food grains and armament purchases caused a declinein India's foreign exchange reserves in the mid-1960s.
By November 1993, however, India's foreign exchange reserveshad risen to $8.1 billion, the highest level since 1951. A substantialreduction in the trade deficit, increased inflows from foreigninstitutional investors, a stable exchange rate, and improvedremittances all contributed in the recovery of reserves.In the early 2000s, India's exports to East and Southeast Asiaincreased, including to Japan and South Korea. High growth rates
were registered for textiles, chemicals and related products,engineering goods, and leather and manufactures.
The Balance of Payment deficit in accounts for India hasincreased for the year 2008-2009. For the fiscal '08-09, the
balance of payment deficit went up to $20 billion from a surplusof $92 billion in 07-08, implying that the country hasreceived far less dollar in the last fiscal than the yearbefore. The modes through which dollars leave the country are inthe form of foreign loans, higher remittance by NRIs and serviceexports, besides the trade exports and also when FIIs pull out.
The amount received from selling goods and services to foreigncountries as compared to the payments made to buy haveincreased between January and March 2009 for India. Currentaccount which captures the trade flows has shown a surplus of$4.75 billion during the quarter as against a deficit of $1.5 billion

in the year-ago period.
India's balance of payment surplus the sum of current and capitalaccounts, has dropped to as low as $300 million. It is low, as
compared to $24.99 billion in the comparable previous period, asper the dollar outflow on account of FII selling in the stock marketand repayment of short-term foreign currency loans by localcorporates.
Analysts identify the current account deficit which will putdownward pressure on the Indian rupee alongside double-digitinflation as the biggest challenges for the Indian economy.
Indias current account deficit has widened in the past year asfast-paced economic growth drives greater demand for importedgoods, and is forecast to grow larger in the year ahead.One reason, the central bank said, for the deteriorationin the balance of payments was a decline in aninvisibles surplus, caused in part by falling revenues toIndias prized outsourcing sector.Indias current account deficit, the largest among Bric countries,could hit 3 per cent in the coming months to extend the widest
margin for three decades.Although India is unlikely to face difficulties financing its currentaccount deficit provided one of the fastest growing largeeconomies attracts capital inflows, some senior policymakers haveurged action to reduce the deficit.They warn that although the Indian economy is forecast to grow at8.5 per cent this year, it is imprudent to widen the deficit at a timeof global economic uncertainty and financial volatility.
A current account deficit occurs when a country'simports of goods and services is greater than its exportsof goods, services and transfers. A wide current account

deficit is not necessarily a bad thing for a fast-growingdeveloping country provided that it is attempting to boost localproductivity and exports.Brazils current account deficit has widened to $43.76bn, or
about 2.24 per cent of GDP, on strong demand for imports. Datareleased this week showed that Brazil had also suffered a steep fallin foreign exchange inflows.China and Russia, by comparison, both run current accountsurpluses.

The Solutions
Solution to correct balance ofpayment disequilibrium lies in earning more foreignexchange through additional exports or reducingimports. Quantitative changes in exports and imports requirepolicy changes. Such policy measures are in the form of monetary,fiscal and non-monetary measures.
Monetary Measures for Correcting the BoP
The monetary methods for correcting disequilibrium in thebalance of payment are as follows-
1. Deflation
Deflation means falling prices. Deflation has been used as ameasure to correct deficit disequilibrium. A country faces deficit
when its imports exceeds exports.
Deflation is brought through monetary measures like bank ratepolicy, open market operations, etc or through fiscal measureslike higher taxation, reduction in public expenditure, etc.Deflation would make our items cheaper in foreign marketresulting a rise in our exports. At the same time the demands forimports fall due to higher taxation and reduced income. This
would build a favourable atmosphere in the balance of paymentposition. However Deflation can be successful when the exchange
rate remains fixed.

2. Exchange Depreciation
Exchange depreciation means decline in the rate of exchange ofdomestic currency in terms of foreign currency. This device
implies that a country has adopted a flexible exchange rate policy.Suppose the rate of exchange between Indian rupee and US dollaris $1 = Rs. 40. If India experiences an adverse balance ofpayments with regard to U.S.A, the Indian demand for US dollar
will rise. The price of dollar in terms of rupee will rise. Hence,dollar will appreciate in external value and rupee will depreciatein external value. The new rate of exchange may be say $1 = Rs.50. This means 25% exchange depreciation of the Indian
currency.Exchange depreciation will stimulate exports and reduce importsbecause exports will become cheaper and imports costlier. Hence,a favourable balance of payments would emerge to pay off thedeficit.3. DevaluationDevaluation refers to deliberate attempt made by monetaryauthorities to bring down the value of home currency againstforeign currency. While depreciation is a spontaneous fall due tointeractions of market forces, devaluation is official act enforced
by the monetary authority. Generally the international monetaryfund advocates the policy of devaluation as a corrective measureof disequilibrium for the countries facing adverse balance ofpayment position. When India's balance of payment worsened in1991, IMF suggested devaluation. Accordingly, the value of Indiancurrency has been reduced by 18 to 20% in terms of variouscurrencies. The 1991 devaluation brought the desired effect. The
very next year the import declined while exports picked up.When devaluation is effected, the value of home currency goesdown against foreign currency, Let us suppose the exchange rateremains $1 = Rs. 10 before devaluation. Let us suppose,devaluation takes place which reduces the value of home currencyand now the exchange rate becomes $1 = Rs. 20. After such a
-

change our goods becomes cheap in foreign market.This is because, after devaluation, dollar is exchanged for moreIndian currencies which push up the demand for exports. At thesame time, imports become costlier as Indians have to pay more
currencies to obtain one dollar. Thus demand for imports isreduced.Generally devaluation is resorted to where there is serious adverse
balance of payment problem.4. Exchange ControlIt is an extreme step taken by the monetary authority to enjoycomplete control over the exchange dealings. Under such ameasure, the central bank directs all exporters to surrender their
foreign exchange to the central authority. Thus it leads toconcentration of exchange reserves in the hands of centralauthority. At the same time, the supply of foreign exchange isrestricted only for essential goods. It can only help controllingsituation from turning worse. In short it is only a temporarymeasure and not permanent remedy.

Non-Monetary Measures forCorrecting the BoP
A deficit country along with Monetary measures may adopt the
following non-monetary measures too which will either restrictimports or promote exports.
1. Tariffs
Tariffs are duties (taxes) imposed on imports. When tariffs areimposed, the prices of imports would increase to the extent oftariff. The increased prices will reduced the demand for imported
goods and at the same time induce domestic producers to producemore of import substitutes. Non-essential imports can bedrastically reduced by imposing a very high rate of tariff.
2. Quotas
Under the quota system, the government may fix and permit themaximum quantity or value of a commodity to be importedduring a given period. By restricting imports through the quotasystem, the deficit is reduced and the balance of paymentsposition is improved.Types of Quotas :-
ythe tariff or custom quota,ythe unilateral quota,
ythe bilateral quota,
ythe mixing quota, andyimport licensing.

3. Export Promotion
The government can adopt export promotion measures to correctdisequilibrium in the balance of payments. This includes
substitutes, tax concessions to exporters, marketing facilities,credit and incentives to exporters, etc.The government may also help to promote export throughexhibition, trade fairs; conducting marketing research & byproviding the required administrative and diplomatic help to tapthe potential markets.
4. Import Substitution
A country may resort to import substitution to reduce the volumeof imports and make it self-reliant. Fiscal and monetary measuresmay be adopted to encourage industries producing importsubstitutes. Industries which produce import substitutes requirespecial attention in the form of various concessions, which includetax concession, technical assistance, subsidies, providing scarceinputs, etc.Non-monetary methods are more effective than monetary
methods and are normally applicable in correcting an adversebalance of payments.

CONCLUSION
MACROECONOMICS:
Indias economic policies and performance are constantlyunder the spotlight, considering its consistent pattern ofgrowth and development, its sectoral development and theconstant predictions of its emergence as the new world
superpower.However, there are several problems that remain to betackled; poverty, illiteracy, unemployment, high foreigndebt, poor rural infrastructure, fiscal/budgetary deficitsetc. Another very important issue, a crushing balance ofpayment deficit, is what addressed through his project.What emerged from our research was the picture of a
system that has yet to develop completely and tie up allloose ends and still relies to quite a large extent upon anantiquated ethic beleaguered by necessitated demands.However, despite pessimistic projections of a burgeoningcurrent account deficit of almost 15% of GDP, we believethat if the aforementioned solutions are adhered to, itwould lead to a decrease in the deficit to about 4% of GDPby 2020.
In conclusion, this was an enlightening project for all of us
and has clearly shown the power and potential of
economic understanding on each

and every level of the modern world.
MICROECONOMICS:
In the end we would like to conclude that Ducati since its
establishment has been on non stable path. Whenever theylaunch some new model the sales and profit both increases
significantly but in due course of time the sales and profit
fluctuate between high and low sales.
