CHAPTER 1: WELCOME TO ECONOMICS!
Self-Check Questions
1. What is scarcity? Can you think of two causes of scarcity?
Solution: Scarcity means human wants for goods and services exceed the available supply.
Supply is limited because resources are limited. Demand, however, is virtually unlimited.
Whatever the supply, it seems human nature to want more.
2. Residents of the town of Smithfield like to consume hams, but each ham requires 10
people to produce it and takes a month. If the town has a total of 100 people, what is
the maximum amount of ham the residents can consume in a month?
Solution: 100 people / 10 people per ham = a maximum of 10 hams per month if all residents
produce ham. Since consumption is limited by production, the maximum number of
hams residents could consume per month is 10.
3. A consultant works for $200 per hour. She likes to eat vegetables, but is not very good
at growing them. Why does it make more economic sense for her to spend her time at
the consulting job and shop for her vegetables?
Solution: She is very productive at her consulting job, but not very productive growing
vegetables. Time spent consulting would produce far more income than it what she
could save growing her vegetables using the same amount of time. So on purely
economic grounds, it makes more sense for her to maximize her income by applying her
labor to what she does best (i.e. specialization of labor).
4. A computer systems engineer could paint her house, but it makes more sense for her
to hire a painter to do it. Explain why.
Solution: The engineer is better at computer science than at painting. Thus, his time is better
spent working for pay at his job and paying a painter to paint his house. Of course, this
assumes he does not paint his house for fun!
5. What would be another example of a “system” in the real world that could serve as a
metaphor for micro and macroeconomics?
Solution: There are many physical systems that would work, for example, the study of planets
(micro) in the solar system (macro), or solar systems (micro) in the galaxy (macro).
6. Suppose we extend the circular flow model to add imports and exports. Copy the
circular flow diagram onto a sheet of paper and then add a foreign country as a third
