Scarcity means limitation of the availability of resources in relation to their wants. That means the available resources are not enough to completely satisfy all the wants.

By now, you must have already learnt that human beings have unlimited wants. And as the resources with which these wants must be satisfied are limited, we can understand that ‘scarcity’ is the central economic problem of everyone including individuals, firms and the government, and even the whole world.

Welfare economics focuses on the optimal allocation of resources and goods and how the allocation of these resources affects social welfare. This relates directly to the study of income distribution and how it affects the common good. Welfare economics is a subjective study that may assign units of welfare or utility to create models that measure the improvements to individuals based on their personal scales

Triss [41]

Answer:

B. An increase in the physical capital stock of the country

Gross domestic product is the sum of all final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year.

If unemployment is high, gdp would be low.

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

D) control the desired price and output to maximize profits, but a perfectly competitive firm can only choose the desired output.

Explanation:

Firms competing in perfectly competitive markets are price takers, meaning that they cannot set the price of their products or services, but monopolists can actually set the price of their products or services because their market power is high enough to do so.
