Christian Boujaoude September 12, 2014 AP Economics Wolff Pd. 3 Study Questions #?s 2-4 2. Economic resources are the natural, human, and manufactured inputs used to produce goods and services. Economic resources fall into four main categories: labor, land, real capital and entrepreneurs. Economic resources are also called factors of production because they are used to produce goods and services. If resources were unlimited and freely available, many of our current choices would be unnecessary. Every person could have as much as they wanted of any good or service, rendering economics, the science of choice, largely unnecessary.

The function of an economy Economy ? the system that trying to solve the basic economics problems. There are different type of economy like household economy, local economy, the national economy, and the international economy. Economists distinguish three parts to the economics problems What, How and For whom. To solve the problems, allocating the scarce resources to people with unlimited wants, people will decide what to product to fulfil most of the needs and desire of people. There will be allocation in resource to different group of people in the society. People will also decide how to product, which we will discuss in the next few chapters like division of labour. People will organise the productions according to what the workers best at.

People have infinite needs and wants but there are limited resources on the earth, so that people have to make choice and have the trade-off when buying the resources. E.g. People want a big house or big flat, but there are limited lands (resources). They want so expensive food like shark fins but there are limited shark for hunting.
