Efficiencies
Productive Efficiency AUFOP inure efficiently and producing maximum output
:
Allocation Efficiency Resources are being
:
allocated where output is maximised
Economic Efficiency :
When productively and all natively efficient
Economic Systems
Market Economy : An economic system where resources are allocated by the market forces of supply + demand
↳A
price system is used to allocate resources
#method of allocating resources by thefree movement of price
Command / Planned Economy : An economic system in which most resources are state-owned and allocated centrally
Mixed Economy : An economic system where resources are allocated by a mixture of market forces +

Incentive :
Something that motivates or encourages someone to do something

marginal principle
•
Involves maximising utility given a budget constraint
•
When individuals choose to consume one good + derive the satisfaction that it brings →
essentially sacrificing the satisfaction they could
enjoy womansunning another good
•
Therefore ,
the best a consumer can do is consume two goods at the point where the ratio of the
marginal utilities of the two goods equals the ratio of the prices
