1. The two features of resources that give rise to an economic problem are (i) resources are limited and (ii) they have alternative uses.
2. Total expenditure will increase.
3. Equilibrium price will increase.
4. It is the price at which market demand and market supply are equal.
5. Cost of producing a good is the sum of actual expenditure on inputs and the imputed expenditure on the inputs supplied by the owner.
6. The factors causing an increase in demand of a commodity are:
(i) Rise in the price of substitute goods.
(ii) Fall in the price of complementary goods.
(iii) Rise in income of its buyers (in case of a normal good).
(iv) Fall in income of its buyers (in case of an inferior good).
(v) Favourable change in taste etc for the good.
(vi) Increase in the number of its buyers. (Any three)

7. Es = 1, at any point on the supply curve if it touches the origin when extended.
Es >1, at any point on the supply curve if it touches the y-axis when extended.
Es<1, at any point on the supply curve if if it touches the x-axis when extended.
Note: This question if answered with the help of diagrams will also be treated as correct.

8. Production Possibility Frontier (PPF) is a downward sloping, concave curve. It shows increasing Marginal Rate of Transformation (MRT) as more quantity of one good is produced by reducing quantity of the other good. This behaviour of the MRT is based on the assumption that all resources are not equally efficient in production of all goods. As more of one good is produced, less and less efficient resources have to be transferred to the production of the other good which raises marginal cost i.e. MRT.
