A financial model is a quantitative or accounting logic chain designed to forecast future outcomes based on data inputs. Models allow for better forecasting than guessing by incorporating assumptions, economic data, and other variables. Common types of financial models include econometric models, industry models, and earnings models. An example regression model correlates housing starts to population estimates to forecast new home construction. Good analysts spend most of their time developing and interpreting financial models.

GST is a comprehensive indirect tax on manufacture, sale and consumption of goods and services at the national level. It will replace multiple taxes levied by the central and state governments. GST is proposed to be implemented as a dual GST with the central and state governments simultaneously levying it across the entire supply chain. The key advantages of GST include reduction in overall tax burden due to removal of cascading effect, increase in tax revenues, and less compliance costs for taxpayers. However, the constitution amendment bill for GST is stuck in the Rajya Sabha due to opposition from the Congress party around certain demands, delaying its implementation which is now targeted for April 2017.

The document discusses three types of training for developing human resources: learning, training, and development. Learning involves acquiring new knowledge and skills, especially hands-on skills. Training strengthens existing knowledge and skills through re-education, especially hands-on skills. Development refers to building and improving attitudes, abilities, values and beliefs over time, especially for managers, and can be seen as transformational learning. While knowledge and skills can grow quickly through learning and training in the short term, building and improving attitudes, abilities, values and beliefs takes much longer time, even fundamentally without progress.
