Understanding Economics: Scarcity, Opportunity Cost, and Resource Allocation

Image
Economics Lesson: Economics is the study of choices—how individuals, firms, and governments allocate scarce resources to meet unlimited wants in a world of trade-offs. What Is Economics? Economics addresses critical global issues like unemployment, poverty, inflation, resource shortages, and global warming. At its core, however, lies the fundamental economic problem:  scarcity.
