economies must address three questions: What goods and services will
be produced? How will these goods and services be produced? Who will
consume them?

interrelated; changes in the price of one good or service can lead to
changes in prices of many other goods and services.
- Sellers compete on
the basis of price, product quality, customer service, product design
and variety, and advertising.
- To earn income
people sell productive resources. These include their labor, capital,
natural resources, and entrepreneurial talents.
- Entrepreneurs accept
the risks in organizing resources to produce goods and services
because they hope to earn profits.
