INTRODUCTION TO ECONOMICS
Economics is a social science which studies allocation of scarce resources which have
alternative uses among competing and limitless wants of the consumer in the society. It
therefore concerns the way people apply knowledge, skills and effort to satisfy human
wants or provide for material well being.
Human wants – Refer to peoples’ desire for goods and services and circumstances that
enhance material well being.
Economics resources – These are ingredients available for providing goods and services.
They are also called factors of production which include land, labour, capital and
entrepreneurship. A resource must be scarce and have money value. Resources are
categorized as either natural or manmade
i. Natural resources – Refer to anything given by nature example soils, lakes and
mountains.
ii. Man-made resources – Refer to anything created by man to assist in production
of goods and services example tools, equipment and building.
Scarcity and Choice
Scarcity - Resources are scarce if their availability is not enough to produce goods and
services to satisfy all wants. Resources are therefore said to be limited and hence choices
have to be made.
Choice is the decision to satisfy one want out of many alternatives. This means others have
to be forgone.
Opportunity cost
Refer to the value of benefit expected from the best second alternative forgone. Since
resources are scarce and have competing alternative uses, choice to satisfy one means
another is forgone
Economic and Non Economic goods
Economic goods – These are goods produced with scarce resources e.g. clothes and
therefore a price has to be paid to obtain them.
Non – Economic goods – are free goods hence no price has to be paid for them e.g.

APA STYLE REFERENCING SIMPLIFIED
Acknowledging a source in your work is somehow a play with your understanding of the information that you are passing across, though the approach is similar. One can begin by first acknowledging the source of the information (author of the information you are using) then follow with the text that contains the information you are presenting: e.g Jones (1998) notes that following instructions in any examination is as important as passing the examination itself.
