Ringkasan program

This program is the study of how different economic systems determine what goods and services will be produced, the prices and quantities of those goods and services, and who will receive them. All societies, from the most primitive to the most complex, must have economic systems that determine how scarce resources (land, raw materials, labor, machinery, and physical structures) will be used to satisfy the demands of the people living in those societies. Knowledge of economics is essential to understanding problems ranging from the consumer's decision to purchase one brand of car over another, to businesses' decisions as to which goods and services to produce and how to price them. Economics also helps us to understand the causes of inflation and unemployment, as well as the effects of government budget deficits or international trade deficits. Lawyers, bankers, managers of large and small businesses, government planners and journalists find economics a useful tool in understanding and solving problems.
