Economic resources
The document discusses the four categories of resources or factors of production that economists use: land, labor, capital, and entrepreneurship. It defines each category and provides examples. Land includes all natural resources. Labor refers to human effort. Capital consists of manufactured goods that can be used for further production, such as machinery. Entrepreneurship is the special talent of developing new ideas and taking risks to start new businesses. The document also notes that resources are paid for through rent, wages, interest, and profit.
Factors of production
The document defines factors of production as the resources used to produce goods and services. It identifies the four main factors of production as land, labor, capital, and enterprise. It provides details on each factor, including definitions, types, and the payments made to each.
FACTORS OF PRODUCTION – LAND & ITS CHARACTERISTICS – THEORIES OF RENT
Land is a factor of production that refers to natural resources like earth, water, forests, and minerals. Theories of rent attempt to explain the payment made for the use of land. According to Ricardo's theory of rent, rent is the portion of agricultural production paid to landowners for the original and indestructible fertility powers of the soil. The modern theory defines rent as the difference between a land's actual earnings and its next best use or transfer earnings. Rent arises when the supply of land is less than perfectly elastic.
Intro to economics
Economics is the study of how scarce resources are allocated to satisfy unlimited human wants. It is divided into microeconomics, which examines individual parts of the economy like supply and demand, and macroeconomics, which looks at the overall economy of a nation. A key concept is that resources are scarce while wants are unlimited, so people must make economic choices and trade-offs to allocate resources efficiently among alternative uses. Needs are basic goods necessary for survival while wants enhance life comfort, and both vary between individuals and change over time. Scarcity exists when resources are insufficient to meet all wants, and can occur due to lack of physical resources or inability to access existing resources.

Introduction to Economics
The activity of seeking wealth is as old as Human
Civilization. Human beings either as individuals or as groups
or as large kingdoms and empires have always been engaged
in acquiring and increasing the material wealth.
However, a discipline study of the wealth producing
activities was commenced about 230 years back when Adam
Smith, the father of Economics, published “The Nature and
Causes of Wealth of Nations”. Economics, as a discipline,
constitute the most important subject to analyze activities
related to wealth creation and distribution. The dimensions of
the subject of Economics are truly vast and encompasses all
aspects of our lives.
Classification of business activity
Business activity is categorized into three sectors: primary, secondary, and tertiary. The primary sector involves extracting raw materials. The secondary sector transforms raw materials into manufactured goods. The tertiary sector provides services to society. In many African countries, the primary sector dominates due to natural resources. In the UK, the primary and secondary sectors have declined while the tertiary sector has grown, partly due to outsourcing manufacturing. Economies also have private and public sectors; the private sector aims for profit while the public sector provides some services freely from tax revenue.

Positive and Normative Economics.docx
Positive economics takes an objective, fact-based approach to describe economic phenomena and relationships, focusing on what is. Normative economics takes a more subjective approach focused on what should be based on values and opinions. Positive economics deals with quantifiable, measurable descriptions and causes/effects, while normative economics involves value judgments and idealized prospective situations that cannot be scientifically tested or proven. Both have important roles to play, with positive economics providing objective analysis and normative economics introducing new ideas, but decisions should be based on the factual findings of positive economics.
Factors of production

Lecture1 Basic Economic Concepts (1)
This document provides an overview of microeconomics concepts including:
1. Economics is defined as the study of how scarce resources are allocated among alternative uses.
2. Key concepts in microeconomics include rational choice, incentives, marginal analysis, and opportunity cost.
3. Economic systems must answer questions about what to produce, how to produce it, and who receives it given the constraints of scarce resources.
Scarci̇ty
Scarcity is caused by unlimited wants and limited resources. Economics relies on the assumption that resources are scarce. Scarcity exists because people have unlimited wants but resources are finite. The four factors of production that determine what can be produced are natural resources, human resources, capital resources, and entrepreneurship. There are three fundamental economic questions: what to produce, how to produce it, and for whom to produce. Scarcity is a permanent condition due to unlimited wants, whereas a shortage can be temporary and corrected by increasing production.
Needs and wants(Economic View)
We all know that economics is a social science, which deals with production, distribution and consumption functions.
It is all about making choices regarding the allocation of scarce resources, so as to make their best possible use and satisfy human wants and needs.
From economics point of view
While needs point out the something you must have for survival,
wants refers to something which is good to have, but not essential for survival
For the purpose of spending and saving money wisely, every person must know the difference between needs and wants.

Ch. 1 micro and macro economics
Microeconomics studies individual economic decision-making and the workings of individual markets, while macroeconomics analyzes the economy as a whole. Microeconomics focuses on supply and demand, pricing and output determination, resource allocation, and individual markets. The subject areas of microeconomics include product and factor markets, as well as theories of demand, production, costs, product pricing, distribution, and welfare economics. Macroeconomics, on the other hand, examines economy-wide phenomena such as national income, unemployment, inflation, economic growth, and international trade. The key concepts in macroeconomics include gross domestic product, fiscal and monetary policy, and the relationships between inflation, interest rates, and the business cycle. Both microeconom
INTRODUCTION - MICRO ECONOMICS
This document provides an introduction to economics. It defines key economic concepts like scarcity, resources, production, consumption, and capital formation. It explains that economics studies how societies allocate their limited resources. Microeconomics focuses on individual units while macroeconomics looks at the overall economy. The central problems that economies face are what and how to produce goods and services, and how to distribute them. Production possibility frontiers are used to show production tradeoffs and opportunity costs between two goods with limited resources. Marginal rates of transformation represent the tradeoff between goods on the production possibilities curve.
Factor of production
The document presents information on the key factors of production - land, labor, capital, and entrepreneurship. It discusses the characteristics of each factor. Land is a natural and immobile resource with limited supply. Labor refers to human work and is inseparable from laborers, with an inelastic supply. Capital consists of manufactured wealth used for further production and depreciates over time. Entrepreneurship involves identifying business opportunities and organizing the other factors of production.
Basic Economic Concepts
Scarcity refers to limited resources being unable to meet unlimited wants. Economics tries to solve the problem of scarcity by determining how to distribute limited resources to best meet wants. Goods are tangible items while services are activities performed for others. Factors of production include land, labor, and capital. Land represents natural resources, labor is work done for pay, and capital includes physical assets like buildings and equipment as well as human capital like education and skills.
Basic economic problem
The main premise of economic problem is that human needs and wants are unlimited but resources are limited in nature. Thus, scarcity of resources which means that in order to produce one good, you have to sacrifice other good.

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.

Economic resources factors of production
The document discusses the factors of production, which are the limited resources that economies use to produce goods and services. The main factors are land, labor, capital, and enterprise. Resources are also classified as either renewable or non-renewable, with renewable resources being able to replenish themselves and non-renewable resources being finite. Sustainable resources are a type of renewable resource that can be used indefinitely as long as they are properly managed to allow regeneration.
Economics 1 1 Notes Lower Version
Economics is the study of how people and societies choose to use scarce resources to satisfy their wants and needs. It can be divided into microeconomics, which examines the choices of individual actors like households and businesses, and macroeconomics, which looks at aggregate outcomes in economies and societies as a whole.

explanation an example of each group as well as what we call the payment each group receives.
Solution
Four primary groups of production are four main factors of production which are a foundation of
any productions. these four factors are land, labor, capital, and entrepreneurship.
the first factor is Land that consists all type of natural resources used to create goods and
services. examples :
land, Gold, oil, forest, animal etc.
Labor who transform these natural resources into usable resources. the value of labor depends on
their skills and educations. to increase the productivity of firm owner trained their employees
(labors) to become more skilled.
capital includes buildings, tools, and machines that are labor usees to make outputs of the
process. some examples are trucks, automated machines, computers, etc.
entrepreneurship who create the idea and combine these all three factors of productions and
makes a profit and increases the productivity of a country.
payments to land and capital are rent, wages to labor, and profit to entrepreneurship..
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.

Mktg Economic Foundations PPT_1.ppt
Economics is the study of how to meet unlimited wants with limited resources. It involves the economic activities of consumption, production, exchange, and distribution. Consumption is using goods and services, while production is making goods and services. Exchange involves trading resources for goods through prices, wages, rents, etc. Distribution divides income among resource owners. Goods are tangible objects while services are intangible acts. Economic resources include land, labor, capital, and entrepreneurship which are used to produce and distribute goods in an economy. Scarcity means not enough resources to meet all wants. Basic economic questions address what and how to produce goods, and who they are produced for.
Mktg Economic Foundations
Economics is the study of how to meet unlimited wants with limited resources. There are four main economic activities: consumption, production, exchange, and distribution. Consumption is using goods and services, production is making goods and services, exchange is trading resources for goods and services through prices and wages, and distribution is dividing income among producers. An economy uses resources like land, labor, capital, and entrepreneurship to produce and distribute goods and services. Scarcity exists because there are insufficient resources to meet all wants.
