3、economic problems concerned by the nation.pMicroeconomics: concerns the economic problems faced by individuals, or firms.成本支出要素需求销售收入产品供给产品需求消费支出要素收入要素供给企 业家 庭产品市场要素市场实物流货币流pPositive economics: is based on the scientific methods, pNormative economics: involves ones value judgments, personal opinions

4、, and not based on a scientific investigation.pNeither of these two has superiority.pA resource is anything that can be used to produce a good or service. It includes:nLand: all natural resources.nLabor: all human attributes that are productive, eg. labor force, labor time, intellectual capability,

5、etc.nCapital: productive equipment or machinery, eg. factory, computers, paper clips, etc.pOp cost is what must be sacrificed to obtain something.pIn the macroeconomics, op cost is: if a nation decides to produce one more unit of product A, how many units of product B will have to be sacrificed?pE.g

8、t increases.When the resources are shifted from butter to gun production, not many more guns are produced, but a lot of butter must be sacrificed. The op cost of producing guns becomes high.When resources are forced to work in an industry where they are not proficient, they are less productive, and

9、the op cost of producing a good becomes greater.Labor hours needed to produce a unit of:CountryWheatClothPortugal1020England2060 Absolute advantage: the production can be made more efficiently. Comparative advantage: a nation can produce the good with a lower op cost. Portugal has an absolute advant

10、age over England in both wheat and cloth production. But trade can still be beneficial to both countries even if Portugal has the absolute advantage. As trade is based on comparative advantage, not absolute advantage.CountryWheatClothOpportunity costsPortugal211/2 c/w2 w/cEngland311/3 c/w3 w/c Engla

At the price, the quantity of supply=the quantity of demand. nD:买方对每个产量愿意支付的最高价格；S:卖方对每个产量愿意出售的最低价格;E:买方愿意支付的最高价格=卖方愿意出售的最低价格PQP*Q*EODSpIf the price is above its e

Suppliers willing to sell at lower price will offer those prices to consumers, driving the market price down towards the equilibrium level.pIf the market price is belo
