The system by which goods and services are produced, sold, and bought that helps us determine how to use limited resources. Everything we MAKE (or GROW) Everything we BUY How resources are USED What is an Economy?

Economics Production (What gets made and how?) Distribution (How do we get things to people who want them?) Consumption of goods and services (What do people want, how much, and what price?) The Big Question: How can we satisfy unlimited wants …with limited resources?

Economics Helps us decide: What goods & services get produced How they are produced Who gets them Who answers all of these questions? YOU answer these questions as a CONSUMER

Supply How much is available to us? What price can it be sold for? Demand How much do we want? What price are we willing to pay? Intro to Supply & Demand
