Making Economic Decisions
• What to produce
• How to produce
• For whom to produce
Individuals satisfy their unlimited wants in a world of limited resources by making choices.
The need to make choices arises because of scarcity, the basic problem in economics.
Every society must answer the three basic economic questions:
![Page 37: Splash Screen. Chapter Menu Chapter Introduction Section 1:Section 1:How Economic Systems Work Section 2:Section 2:Making Economic Decisions Visual Summary](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56649e4c5503460f94b4242b/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Making Economic Decisions
Individuals are forced to make trade-offs every time they use their resources in one way and not in another.
The cost of making a trade-off is known as opportunity cost—the value of the next best alternative that has to be given up to do the action that is chosen.

Costs and Revenue
Four important measures of cost are total cost, fixed cost, variable cost, and marginal cost.
A key measure of revenue is marginal revenue, which is the change in total revenue when one more unit of output is sold.
