SCARCITY

Limited resources

Unlimited wants

Mirza, O. (2013)

SCARCITY • The basic economic problem that arises

because people have unlimited wants but resources are limited

• There are not enough resources in the world to satisfy the unlimited wants and needs of all people

• Scarcity limits the total output from the economy• Scarcity, however, does not imply that the

amount of resources or the state of technology is fixed.

Mirza, O. (2013)

Belen, R. (2010)

REALITY IN THE WORLD OF SCARCITYEvery want that ends up being satisfied causes

one or more wants to remain unsatisfied
