5、a household.”Economy.5A societyLike a household,a society faces many decisions.A society must decide what jobs will be done and who will do them.It needs some people to grow food,other people to make clothing,and still others to design computer software.6 A societyOnce society has allocated people(a

7、LE MAKE DECISIONSAll decisions involve tradeoffs.Examples:Going to a party the night before your midterm leaves less time for studying.Having more money to buy stuff requires working longer hours,which leaves less time for leisure.Protecting the environment requires resources that could otherwise be

8、 used to produce consumer goods.Principle#1:People Face Tradeoffs9CHAPTER 1 TEN PRINCIPLES OF ECONOMICS“There is no such thing as a free lunch!”Principle#1:People Face Trade-offs.10CHAPTER 1 TEN PRINCIPLES OF ECONOMICSMaking decisions requires trading off one goal against another.Principle#1:People

17、 and materials to the extra revenue.Principle#3:Rational People Think at the Margin18CHAPTER 1 TEN PRINCIPLES OF ECONOMICSHOW PEOPLE MAKE DECISIONSincentive:something that induces a person to act,i.e.the prospect of a reward or punishment.Rational people respond to incentives.Examples:When gas price

20、ion works,$5700 if it doesntBenefit of fixing the transmission=$800($6500 5700).Its worthwhile to have the transmission fixed.B.Blue book value is$6000 if transmission works,$5500 if it doesntBenefit of fixing the transmission is only$500.Paying$600 to fix transmission is not worthwhile.20Observatio

21、ns:The$1000 you previously spent on repairs is irrelevant.What matters is the cost and benefit of the marginal repair(the transmission).The change in incentives from scenario A to scenario B caused your decision to change.2123CHAPTER 1 TEN PRINCIPLES OF ECONOMICSHOW PEOPLE INTERACTRather than being
