How different economic systems answer the three basic economic questions

1. The three basic economic questions that every day society has to answer is; What product will be produced,How will the product be produced and for whom will the product be produced?
2. An economic system is a system of production and distribution and consumption. the four types of economic systems are :Market economy,Mixed econony,Commmand economy and Traditional economy(i.e.market economy is not run by the gov't,mixed economy is a mixture of all economies out together, command economy is controlled by the gov't, and traditional economies are based on customs and beliefs)
3. Idint know the answer to this question/
4.  The united states reflect a combination of the economic systems because the united states is a very the diverse country,with that being said that means that we have a mixed economy.
5. The economic system that is used by the Inuit  is the Traditional economy because there custom is to take the child through these steps on order for them work .
6. The  market,command and traditional economic systems compare and contrast with eachother in terms of profit motive
7. One reason why i support Adam Smith's theory of laissez faire and the ''invisible hand'' in the market economy is because it forces people to think about what other people wants and one reason why i would oppose this theory

Standard EF1: limited resources and unlimited wants and needs.

• Scarcity influences the choices made about spending money because your wants and needs are unlimited by how much money you have to spend. I had to make a trade-off once when I had to pay my band dues. I could have used that money to get my hair done but I chose to pay my dues. I told myself that I could get my hair done anytime, but right now I have to pay my dues in order to get my performance uniform. Afterwards I felt relieved, my due not getting paid was weighing heavy on me, so once I got them out of the way nothing else really mattered


• A business owner influences the four factors of production because in order to start a business, an owner needs a building (land), they also need employers (labor), and materials (capitol) and the business owner is the entrepreneur. Business owners can come into controversy with their employers and financial problems and the rewards come from them being in the right spot so that they can get a lot of service.

• I believe that I can see myself as a laborer and an entrepreneur. I have to build my leadership skills by working as an employer first in order to make my way to owning a business.

get what he wants and needs.

• I feel that I know this standard pretty well. I really don’t have any questions either.

Standards EF2 and EF3- productions possibilities curve; rational decision making; and specialization.

 If I owned a business a PPC would tell me all possible production possibilities for two products.


 growth and increasing of production would cause my PPC shift outward

 the best way to determine whether or not we are making a rational economic decision is by seeing if the marginal benefits exceeds the marginal costs

 Companies choose to specialize and trade because they have a comparative advantage. Also division of labor increases production, profit and trade. If companies didn’t specialize then production, profit, and trade would decrease.

 I feel that I really grasp this concept. Two things that confuse me however is comparative advantage and marginal benefits exceeding marginal costs. When I answer questions about those two things my mind is a little shaky
