Thinking Like an Economist
This document discusses how economists approach their work as scientists and policy advisors. It outlines the basic models and terminology used in economics, including the circular flow diagram and production possibilities frontier. The document also distinguishes between positive and normative analyses and statements, and notes that while economists aim to be objective, they may disagree in their policy recommendations due to differing scientific or value judgments.
Thinking Like an Economist
This document provides an overview of key economic concepts. It discusses:
- How economics trains analytical and objective thinking using models and assumptions
- Common economic models like the circular flow diagram and production possibilities frontier
- Microeconomics focuses on individual decision-making in markets while macroeconomics examines the whole economy
- Positive analysis descriptively explains the world, while normative analysis prescribes how it should be
- Economists generally agree on methodology but can disagree on assumptions about human behavior
Ten principles of Economics
This document is a PowerPoint presentation summarizing the 10 principles of economics according to the textbook "Principles of Economics" by N. Gregory Mankiw. It discusses key economic concepts like scarcity, tradeoffs, costs and benefits, incentives, markets, market failures, productivity, inflation, and the relationship between inflation and unemployment.
Resources
This document defines four types of economic resources - land, labor, capital, and entrepreneurship. It explains that resources are the inputs needed to produce goods and services, and that different types of resources include natural resources (land), human work capacity (labor), manufactured goods and equipment (capital), and individuals who organize production (entrepreneurship). Due to limited resources and unlimited wants, scarcity exists where all wants cannot be met, requiring economic choices about what, how, and for whom to produce with consideration of opportunity costs.

Factors of production and sectors of ecomony
The document discusses the key factors of production in economics - land, labor, capital and entrepreneurship. It also outlines the main sectors of the economy - the primary sector involves natural resource extraction, the secondary sector is manufacturing, and the tertiary sector comprises services. Within sectors, organizations can be organized or unorganized, and the economy also has public and private components.
Economics lesson for Surefoot International School, Calabar
1) People's wants for goods and services are unlimited, but the resources used to produce them are scarce. This creates an economic problem.
2) Scarcity means societies must make choices about how to use limited resources to satisfy unlimited wants. It leads to decisions about what goods and services will be produced and who will consume them.
3) The basic economic problem is how to allocate scarce resources among competing ends to satisfy unlimited human wants. Economics aims to increase people's choices by studying this problem.

Economics : Unit 1 scarcity & choice
Dr. Ahmed El-Feqi has extensive academic qualifications, including a Ph.D in Economics from the University of East Anglia. He has received fellowships from both the Ford Foundation and International Fellowship Programme in the United States. El-Feqi is currently a teaching assistant at Delta University. The document goes on to define key economic concepts like scarcity, resources, wants and needs, goods and services. It explains how economies must make choices due to limited resources, and uses models like the production possibilities frontier to illustrate opportunity costs and trade-offs.
Factors of Production
Factors of production are the resources used to make goods and services, and are separated into three categories: land, labor, and capital. Land refers to all natural resources like minerals, timber, and real estate. Labor refers to the actual work done by individuals, whether unskilled, semi-skilled, skilled, or professional. Capital refers to man-made resources used for production, including physical capital like tools and equipment, as well as human capital in the form of workers' skills and training.
Chapter 1
The document introduces concepts related to business economic decisions including needs and wants, goods and services, factors of production, limited resources, and decision making. It defines needs as things necessary for survival like food, clothing, and housing, while wants add comfort and pleasure but are not necessary. Goods are things that can be seen and touched, while services satisfy wants through others' efforts. Factors of production include natural resources, human resources (labor), and capital resources (tools, equipment, buildings). Resources are limited, creating scarcity, so decision making involves defining problems, identifying choices, evaluating pros and cons, choosing, and evaluating outcomes.
GWL3O 3.5 visions o the future
The document discusses identifying future career opportunities that are connected to changing technologies. It provides learning goals about identifying trends in technological change and career opportunities or challenges from these trends. Students will watch documentaries about future technologies like supercars and smart cities to fill out a table with examples of technological changes and resulting career possibilities in areas like economic conditions, demographics, emerging technologies, and laws/policies. The goal is to help students understand how following technological trends can create employment opportunities.
FACTORS OF PRODUCTION
The document outlines the four factors of production in economics: natural resources, labor, capital, and entrepreneurship. Natural resources are gifts from nature like land, water, animals, and minerals. Labor refers to the workforce, including anyone who works to produce goods and services. Capital consists of manufactured goods used to make other goods and services. Entrepreneurship involves individuals who start new businesses, introduce new products, or improve processes.
Introduction to economics.ppsx
This document introduces some key concepts in economics. It defines economics as dealing with limited resources to meet unlimited wants. The four major factors of production are land, labor, capital, and organization. Two basic problems in economics are scarcity, due to limited resources, and choice, which requires selecting some goods to produce from many options. Three interrelated economic problems are determining what to produce, how to produce, and for whom to produce. Microeconomics examines topics like demand and supply at the individual level, while macroeconomics looks at aggregate concepts like GDP and unemployment at the national level. Opportunity cost refers to the next best alternative given up when making a choice. The production possibilities curve models the tradeoffs between two goods based on
Pengantar Ekonomika 1.pdf
Economics is defined as the science of choice and how choices change with scarcity. It explains economic behavior and can be positive, describing what exists, or normative, making judgments and prescribing actions. Microeconomics studies individual decision-making and markets, while macroeconomics analyzes employment, income and production on a national scale. Economics aims to understand opportunity costs, markets, society, global affairs, and inform citizens.
Engineering economics
Engineering economics applies economic principles to engineering problems to help engineers and decision makers determine the most cost-effective option. It helps identify alternative uses of limited resources and select the preferred course of action. Engineering economics integrates economic theory with engineering practice by quantifying the benefits and costs of engineering projects to see if they save enough money to warrant capital investments. It considers concepts like cash flow, time value of money, depreciation, cost-benefit analysis, and the systematic comparison of alternatives.
Econ ppt announcement
Economics is the study of how people make choices to satisfy unlimited wants and needs with limited resources. Scarcity means resources are insufficient to meet all human wants, so people must choose some things over others. The basic questions of economics are what, how, and for whom to produce goods and services. The goal of economics is to solve the problem of scarcity by studying how people allocate resources.
Introduction to economics three little pigs
The document discusses the key factors of production: natural resources, labor, capital goods, and entrepreneurship. It provides examples of each factor. Natural resources include land and raw materials. Labor refers to human capital and skills. Capital goods are tools and equipment used to produce other goods. Entrepreneurship involves innovating and taking risks to introduce new products and techniques. The document also discusses how investing in human capital through education can increase a country's GDP and gives examples comparing countries' economic strategies.
Factorsofproduction 111018195637-phpapp02[1]
This document discusses the four factors of production that influence economic growth: investment in human capital, investment in capital goods, natural resources, and entrepreneurship. It explains that the presence or absence of these four factors determine a country's gross domestic product. Nations that invest in education and training will have a more productive workforce that can boost technological advances and GDP. Economic growth is measured by increases in GDP over time and is influenced by a country's resources and investments in physical and human capital.
Basic Economic Problems
The document discusses the basic economic problem of scarcity and opportunity cost. It defines the key concepts of needs and wants, and explains that while needs are necessities, wants are pleasurable but not necessary goods. Resources used to produce goods and services are finite but human wants are unlimited, creating an economic problem. The concept of opportunity cost, which is the next best alternative forgone when making a choice due to scarce resources, is introduced and illustrated using a production possibilities frontier diagram showing the tradeoffs between producing two goods.
Introduction to Economics
This document discusses basic economics concepts and systems. It defines microeconomics as studying individual behavior of consumers and firms, while macroeconomics studies the aggregate behavior of the entire economy, such as unemployment, inflation and GDP. It also lists the three basic factors of production as land, labor, and capital. Entrepreneurship is described as investing time, natural resources, labor and capital which involves risks. The three basic economic problems are outlined as what to produce, how to produce, and for whom to produce.

The document discusses how economists think and analyze issues. It explains that economics uses models and terminology to study topics scientifically. Two common models are the circular flow diagram, which shows how resources and money flow between households and businesses, and the production possibilities frontier, which illustrates production trade-offs. Economics is divided into microeconomics, which analyzes individual decision-making in markets, and macroeconomics, which looks at overall economic trends. The document also distinguishes between positive statements, which describe objective facts, and normative statements, which make subjective policy judgments.

An economy is defined as how a nation uses its limited resources to produce and distribute goods and services. Resources include land, labor, capital, and entrepreneurship. Scarcity means that resources are limited but wants and needs are unlimited, forcing nations to make choices. Nations must answer basic economic questions about what to produce, how to produce it, and who the production is for, defining their economic system. Consumers decide what is produced through market purchases, while businesses aim to produce competitively and encourage customers.

Introduction to economics
Economics is the study of how individuals and societies make decisions about using scarce resources to fulfill wants and needs. It can be studied at the macro level of whole economies or micro level of individual decision making. Resources are limited so choices must be made between alternatives, which involves tradeoffs. Production requires factors of land, labor, capital and entrepreneurship to transform inputs into goods and services. Firms aim to maximize profits by equating their marginal costs with marginal revenues from sales. Different economic systems approach these decisions in various ways such as traditional economies based on custom, command economies controlled by the government, and free market economies driven by supply and demand.
