1Economics is best defined as the study of which of the following?
A.How societies allocate scarce resources among unlimited wants
B.How governments always set the prices of all goods
C.How to eliminate scarcity completely in an economy
D.How to maximize only the money supply of a nation
Explanation: Economics studies how individuals, firms, and societies choose to allocate limited (scarce) resources to satisfy unlimited wants. Scarcity forces trade-offs; economics analyzes those choices.
2Which of the following is a free good rather than an economic good?
A.Air in the open atmosphere under ordinary conditions
B.Bottled drinking water sold in a shop
C.Electricity supplied to a household
D.Petrol purchased at a filling station
Explanation: A free good is available in quantities that exceed demand at zero price, so no opportunity cost arises in normal use (e.g., open-air air). Economic goods are scarce and command a positive price.
3Opportunity cost is best described as which of the following?
A.The value of the next-best alternative foregone when a choice is made
B.The total money spent on all alternatives considered
C.The accounting cost of materials only
D.The sum of fixed and variable costs of a firm
Explanation: Opportunity cost is the value of the best alternative given up when a decision is made. It captures the real sacrifice of choice under scarcity.
4Which of the following is a characteristic of a centrally planned economy?
A.Major resource allocation decisions are made mainly by the government
B.All prices are determined solely by free market forces without any state role
C.Private ownership is the only form of property allowed
D.Consumers alone decide what is produced without state planning
Explanation: In a centrally planned (command) economy, the state plays the dominant role in deciding what, how, and for whom to produce, often through plans and public ownership.
5The law of demand states that, other things remaining constant,
A.Quantity demanded of a good falls as its own price rises
B.Quantity demanded always rises when income rises for every good
C.Quantity demanded is independent of price
D.Demand curves always shift left when price falls
Explanation: Ceteris paribus, higher own price reduces quantity demanded (and lower price increases it). This inverse relation is shown by a downward-sloping demand curve. Income effects concern demand shifts, not the law of demand itself.
6A movement along a demand curve is caused by a change in which of the following?
A.The good's own price
B.Consumer income only
C.Prices of related goods only
D.Consumer tastes only
Explanation: A change in the good's own price causes a movement along a given demand curve (change in quantity demanded). Changes in income, related prices, tastes, etc., shift the entire demand curve.
7Which of the following is a factor of production?
A.Labour
B.Finished cars ready for sale in a showroom
C.Government transfer payments to households
D.Household final consumption expenditure only
Explanation: Factors of production are inputs used to produce goods and services: land, labour, capital, and entrepreneurship. Labour is a primary factor.
8Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of
A.Quantity demanded to a change in the good's own price
B.Quantity supplied to a change in income
C.Price to a change in government tax only
D.Income to a change in interest rates
Explanation: Price elasticity of demand (PED) = percentage change in quantity demanded divided by percentage change in own price (absolute value often used for classification).
9If the price of tea rises and the demand for coffee increases, tea and coffee are best classified as
A.Substitute goods
B.Complementary goods
C.Inferior goods
D.Giffen goods
Explanation: Substitutes are goods that can replace each other. A rise in tea's price leads consumers toward coffee, raising coffee demand. Complements move together in the opposite pattern.
10Which market structure has many sellers of a homogeneous product and free entry and exit?
A.Perfect competition
B.Monopoly
C.Oligopoly with collusion only
D.Monopolistic competition with unique patents on every product
Explanation: Perfect competition is characterized by many buyers and sellers, a homogeneous product, free entry/exit, and perfect information, making firms price takers.
