WITHOUT any government stuff economics focuses on decision making in response to smith believed that a country’s wealth came from the scarcity products it creates, and to make the country as wealthy unlimited needs and wants + limited resources > as possible, it should be able to produce freely without SCARCITY > choices in response any restrictions. we dont have enough resources to meet endless needs and david ricardo wants, thats why it is believed that all economies law of diminishing marginal return - after reaching an experience scarcity optimal level of production, adding more resources/factors will lead to smaller increases in output scarcity can happen because of: comparative advantage - an economy’s ability to produce -wasteful use of resources stuff at a lower opportunity cost -non–renewability of some resources -never ending human needs thomas robert malthus the malthusian theory of population - population grows types of scarcity according to… exponentially (constant acceleration) but food supply the situation grows arithmetically (constant rate). population and food physical situation - refers to where resources are supply balance using preventive measures (e.g. birth insufficient to meet endless needs and wants control and positive checks) property of max toribio mental situation - refers to a persons unwillingness to meet a need even if its possible to lesson 3: needs and wants (pangangailangan at kagustuhan) the solution theyre self-explanatory absolute scarcity - when nature and humans cant address needs - things that are very important for people to live, the cause of scarcity we’ll prob die without them relative scarcity - when resources are insufficient to wants - things that people can live without meet human needs needs + wants = satisfaction then whats a shortage TEMPORARY insufficiency of resources but can still maslows hierarchy of needs meet needs and wants abraham harold maslow made this thing because yeah scarcity is PERMANENT, shortage is TEMPORARY so for the rest of this section pretend that its a triangle where were going up the triangle other important things physiological needs - includes biological needs like food malthus made a theory - (see theory of population) if and water. without them wed be ill or weak and things food production is slow and cant keep up with the rapidly safety needs - safety and security of oneself, family, growing population, there will be a scarcity of food property, health, etc mankiw said that - in a community with limited resources, social needs - we need to be in different families and always consider the opportunity cost. careful planning and groups. we would be depressed without people to socialize studying is needed in every decision so more benefits are with gained esteem - need to achieve respect for oneself and others.

production - process of combining factors of production focuses on services) to create a product -personalized or customized - from latin word “productio” meaning bring forth -lower fixed costs every process has an input (ppt and google docs), process -higher average costs (typing this), and output (this ap reviewer) wow ap became esp, research, and ict capital intensive -batch and mass production -standardized project factors of production -higher fixed costs -the stuff needed to make a product. we cannot do so -lower average costs without just one of these factors entrepreneur natural resources a person who manages other factors of production to everything that is useful for people came from nature create products which is why it is the most useful and most important also known as a businessman, producer, or capitalist type of resource fixed and immobile, there is a limit, multi-purpose the questions one shall ask as an entrepreneur -what do we do? labor -for whom will it be done? people who put in physical and mental energy to the -how much will be produced? creation of products -where will we get our factors? they rae the ones who use and develop resources to gain -until when will the product be produced? benefit -what will be the benefit? types of work-force the abilities one shall obtain as an entrepreneur professional (mental labor/white collar job) (in creating products) college graduates -new product reasoning and analysis work -new replacement product -complementary product worker (physical labor/blue collar job) -innovation skilled -

quickly changes form and is quickly consumed (e.g. oil, electricity, sugar) fixed capital - does not quickly change form and has long-term use (e.g. buildings, machinery, vehicles) property of max toribio stages of production primary stage - gathering of raw materials secondary stage - processing of raw materials (refining process) final stage - arrangement of finished products (packaging, labeling, distribution) for people to use value of production amount spent by the producer to make products value of production serves as a basis for setting the price of a product natural resources > rent labor > salary capital > interest entrepreneur > profit natres + labor + capital + entrepreneur = factors of production rent + salary + interest + profit = value of product types of production values fixed cost - costs that never change variable cost - costs that change as production increases total cost - sum of fc and vc, serves as a basis for the price of products PERIODICAL CUT-OFF the rest of the powerpoint will NOT be part of the perio.
