Quality and Quantity of Factors of Production
The quality and quantity of factors of production can be influenced by various economic and social factors. The quality of labor and capital can increase through better education, training, experience, and healthcare. The quantity of labor depends on population size, age structure, retirement age, and attitudes towards women working. It also depends on the number of hours worked, which is influenced by the length of the average work day and time lost to holidays and sickness. The quantity of capital depends on investment levels and tends to increase over time through spending on capital goods minus depreciation. While the amount of land does not change much, its quality can be increased through fertilizers and other methods.
Theories Of International Trade
The document discusses several theories of international trade:
1) Theory of Absolute Advantage explains trade based on natural advantages in production.
2) Theory of Comparative Advantage shows that total production can increase through specialization and trade, even if one country is more efficient.
3) Hecksher-Ohlin Model states that a country's factor endowments (e.g. labor, capital) determine its comparative costs and goods it can produce efficiently.
4) Imitation Gap Theory considers trade between countries with similar factors based on differences in demand and imitation lags of new products.
5) International Product Life Cycle Theory posits that new products are developed domestically then exported as production shifts to
Unit 2 supply.ppt
The document discusses supply and the law of supply. It defines supply as the willingness and ability of sellers to produce and offer different quantities of a good at different prices. The law of supply states that quantity supplied increases as price increases, and decreases as price decreases, resulting in a direct relationship between price and quantity supplied. Supply can be illustrated using supply schedules and supply curves, with the curve shifting right when supply increases and left when supply decreases. Factors that cause supply curves to shift include resource prices, technology, taxes, subsidies, quotas, number of sellers, expectations, and weather.

The document outlines concepts and topics related to economics that students should understand for the Cambridge IGCSE examinations in 2012. It covers definitions of key economic terms like scarcity, factors of production, opportunity cost, market equilibrium, demand and supply factors. It also discusses market allocation of resources, market failure, costs and revenues for firms, macroeconomic indicators, differences between developed and developing economies, and international trade. The document provides detailed syllabus statements and explanations to prepare students for exam questions.
factor pricing
Factor pricing is determined by demand and supply in competitive markets. The three main factors of production that are traded are labor, land, and capital. Labor demand is determined by the point where the marginal product of labor equals the wage rate. The individual labor supply curve may bend backward at high wages, but the market supply curve remains upward sloping in the long run. Factor prices are determined by the equilibrium of demand and supply in the market. Rent is the payment for fixed factors in excess of their opportunity cost. Profit provides rewards for entrepreneurship, risk-taking, and innovation in imperfect markets.
The Markets for the Factors of Production
The document discusses labor markets and the markets for factors of production. It explains that:
1) Labor demand is derived from a firm's production function and decision to supply goods. Firms hire labor up to the point where the marginal product of an additional worker equals the wage.
2) Labor supply comes from individuals' choices about how much to work based on wages. Equilibrium in the labor market is reached at the wage where supply meets demand.
3) The prices of factors like capital and land are also determined by supply and demand in their respective markets. In all markets, factors earn their marginal product.
Elasticity of Supply
1. Price elasticity of supply measures the responsiveness of quantity supplied to a change in price.
2. It is calculated as the percentage change in quantity supplied divided by the percentage change in price.
3. The elasticity of supply depends on factors like the type of product, production capacity, and time horizon. Products and industries with more flexible inputs and time to adjust will have a more elastic supply.

PPF PowerPoint
The document discusses production possibility frontiers (PPF), which graphically illustrate the various combinations of two goods an economy can produce given limited resources. A PPF shows attainable combinations on or inside the curve, with unattainable points outside the curve. The slope of the PPF represents the opportunity cost of producing one good in terms of forgone production of the other good. A steeper slope indicates a higher opportunity cost.
Aggregate Demand and Aggregate Supply
This document discusses short-run economic fluctuations using the aggregate demand and aggregate supply model. It explains that in the short-run, the aggregate supply curve slopes upward due to sticky wages and prices. Shifts in aggregate demand or supply can cause fluctuations in output and unemployment. Recessions occur when aggregate demand decreases, causing output and employment to fall.

free market v command economies revision
The document discusses different economic systems including free market economies, command economies, and mixed economies. It notes that free market economies allocate resources through supply and demand but may lead to inequality or market failures. Command economies allocate all resources through the government. Mixed economies, like most modern economies, involve a combination of market and government allocation of resources. The document then gives examples of how governments intervene in market economies through taxes, subsidies, legislation, and providing public goods.
production_possibility_curve
The document discusses key economic concepts related to scarcity and choice. It introduces the production possibilities frontier (PPF) to illustrate that societies must choose between different goods and services since resources are limited. As more of one good is produced, less can be produced of another due to scarcity. Technological advances and capital accumulation can shift the PPF outward, allowing for more total output. Specialization and voluntary exchange allow countries to consume beyond their own PPF through trade. Opportunity cost is the next best alternative given up when making a choice and tends to increase as more of one good is produced over others along the PPF.
Liquidity preference theory
By going through the slides you may have distinct idea about Keynes theory for interest rate determination.
Supply Function
This document discusses supply, the supply function, determinants of supply, and the law of supply. It defines supply as the quantity of a product offered for sale at a given price in a given time period. The supply function defines the quantity supplied (Sx) as a function of price (Px) and other determinants, including production costs, prices of related goods, technology, taxes, subsidies, and external factors. The law of supply states that as price increases, suppliers will offer a larger quantity, and as price decreases, suppliers will offer a smaller quantity.
Lec 21 Perfect Competition
Perfect Competition
Market structure is the interconnected characteristics of a market, such as the number and relative strength of buyers and sellers, degree of freedom in determining the price, level and forms of competition, extent of product differentiation and ease of entry into and exit from the market
Public Goods and Private Goods
Public goods are characterized by non-excludability and non-rivalry. They cause market failure because the private sector cannot exclude non-payers or protect property rights. Examples include national defense, flood control, and street lighting. Quasi-public goods share some characteristics but can be made semi-excludable or semi-rival through congestion. While the private sector does not normally provide pure public goods, governments must determine optimal provision levels, though new technologies are blurring distinctions with private goods.
Market Concentration
This document discusses how to measure industry concentration to determine the market structure of an industry. There are two main measures:
1. Concentration ratio - Measures the percentage of total industry output produced by the largest 4 firms. A ratio over 40% indicates an oligopolistic market structure.
2. Herfindahl Index - Calculates the sum of the squared market shares of all firms in an industry. It ranges from 0 to 10,000 with scores over 1,800 indicating high concentration.
The document provides examples calculating both measures using hypothetical industry data. It interprets the results and explains how the Herfindahl Index improves on the concentration ratio by accounting for differences in the distribution of market shares among firms.
Demand and supply
This document discusses key concepts related to demand and supply, including:
1) Demand and supply schedules show the relationship between price and quantity at different price levels. Demand and supply curves graph this relationship.
2) A change in a non-price factor like income causes a shift of the demand or supply curve, while a price change results in movement along the curve.
3) Equilibrium occurs where quantity demanded equals quantity supplied. Price controls can result in surpluses or shortages from the equilibrium.
4) Elasticity measures the responsiveness of one variable to changes in another. It is used to analyze how changes in price or other factors affect revenue and consumer behavior.
Market failure
1. Market failure occurs when the conditions for perfect competition are not met, resulting in inefficient resource allocation. Some causes of market failure include monopoly, externalities, public goods, imperfect information, and non-existent markets.
2. Externalities occur when the actions of one economic unit unintentionally impact another in an uncompensated way, such as pollution from factories. This leads to a divergence between private and social costs/benefits.
3. For goods with public goods characteristics of non-rivalry and non-excludability, like national defense, there is no market mechanism to efficiently allocate resources, as they cannot be priced. This results in underprovision of public goods.
Theory of the Firm (Product, Cost, Revenue, Profit)
Following this presentation you will:
- Understand what the Theory of The Firm means
- Explain the firm behavior to minimise cost
- Understand the firm behavior to increase productivity and economics efficiency.
- Explain the firms behavior to maximise profit.
- Understand the concept of Economy of Scale.
Oligopoly - The Kinked Demand Curve
This document discusses oligopolies, which are markets dominated by a few large firms. It covers key concepts like collusion, price leadership, and the prisoners' dilemma. It explains how oligopolistic firms are interdependent and face a kinked demand curve. This leads to price rigidity even when costs change. As price competition is limited, firms compete through non-price factors like innovation, branding, and promotions. Examples show concentration in industries like petrol, cinema, and mobile phones. Price wars can boost sales but hurt profits. Overall, economies of scale, mergers, and barriers to entry tend to increase market concentration over the long-run.
Specialisation & the division of labour
Specialization occurs at different levels of economic activity and can provide several key advantages. It involves concentrating production on specific products or tasks. Within businesses and organizations, specialization allows workers to focus on discrete tasks and gain expertise through repetition, improving productivity. Countries and regions also specialize in goods where they have a comparative advantage. While specialization increases output and profits, it can result in repetitive work that lacks variety and skills, potentially reducing worker satisfaction over time.
stackelberg model
1) The Stackelberg model describes a sequential game where one firm (the leader) moves first by choosing its quantity, which the second firm (the follower) then observes before choosing its own quantity.
2) The leader produces more and earns higher profits than in the Cournot model because it can strategically influence the follower's response.
3) Total output is higher but deadweight loss is also higher under Stackelberg compared to Cournot.
Scarcity, choice, and opportunity cost
Human wants are unlimited but resources are limited, creating scarcity. This scarcity means resources have alternative uses and choices must be made. To understand an economic system, three basic questions must be answered: what gets produced, how it is produced, and who gets what is produced. What gets produced deals with deciding which consumer and capital goods to make. How it is produced concerns efficiently using resources through techniques like labor-intensive or capital-intensive methods. Who gets what is produced involves distributing income through personal distribution between individuals and functional distribution between workers, landlords, and entrepreneurs.
Agrregate Demand and Supply
Short-run economic fluctuations are caused by shifts in aggregate demand and aggregate supply. A decrease in aggregate demand causes output to fall in the short run as the economy enters a recession, with declining GDP and rising unemployment. In the long run, output returns to its natural rate. An adverse shift in aggregate supply also causes output to fall and can lead to stagflation, with both recession and inflation. Policymakers aim to stabilize output by influencing aggregate demand.
Perfect competition
This document discusses the characteristics of perfect competition in economics. It outlines the necessary conditions for a perfectly competitive market, which are: firms are price takers; there are many buyers and sellers; there are no barriers to entry or exit; products are identical; and there is complete information. It explains that under perfect competition, each individual firm faces a perfectly elastic demand curve, meaning it is a price taker, while the market demand curve is downward sloping. The individual firm can have no impact on the market price.
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.
Achieving Quality Production
This document discusses quality, quality control, quality assurance, and total quality management. It explains that quality means meeting customer expectations. Quality control checks quality after production through inspectors, while quality assurance checks quality throughout production by employees. Total quality management focuses on continuous quality improvement by building quality into every stage and making all employees responsible for quality. Maintaining quality helps businesses through increased sales, customer loyalty and reputation while lack of quality hurts businesses.
Business/ Commerce
Business and commerce involve the production of goods and services to generate a profit. Key questions that must be addressed include what and how much to produce, how to produce items, and who will consume the goods and services. Modern advances like advanced trade systems have made national and global commerce easier and more prosperous. Changing consumer demands and new technologies also create new opportunities. While business and commerce have different words, they have the same meaning and concept and can be used interchangeably to refer to the combined activities of manufacturing, marketing, exchange, distribution, and finance.

The internet has facilitated the widespread use of online purchasing.
The Marketing Mix - Promotion
Promotion is where marketing activities aim to raise customers awareness of a product or brand, generating sales and helping to create brand loyalty.
Price elasticity of demand
Price elasticity of demand measures how responsive consumer demand is to changes in price. It is calculated by taking the percentage change in quantity demanded divided by the percentage change in price. Demand can be elastic, inelastic, perfectly elastic, perfectly inelastic, or unit elastic depending on how much quantity demanded changes relative to price changes. Factors like availability of substitutes, necessity of the product, and proportion of income spent on it affect price elasticity. Understanding price elasticity helps firms set prices to maximize total revenue.
Business Document
The document discusses various accounting terms including cash discount, trade discount, cheque, receipt, petty cash book, and imprest system. It provides definitions and explanations of each term. For example, it states that a cash discount is an allowance given to a customer who settles their account within a certain time limit set by the supplier, while a trade discount is a reduction in the price of goods that often increases with larger quantities purchased. It also notes that a petty cash book records low-value cash payments and is restored under the imprest system so the petty cashier always starts each period with the same amount.
Price Changes
The document summarizes how changes in demand and supply affect market prices and quantities traded. It discusses how an increase in demand raises prices while a decrease in demand lowers prices. An increase in supply lowers prices while a decrease in supply raises prices. Examples are given of how falling demand or supply would shift the curves and lower the market quantity or raise the price. The document ends with sample questions about identifying causes of demand changes and using diagrams to analyze a subsidy.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
