1. List some examples of the scarcity that you face.
Examples of scarcity common to students include not enough income to afford both tuition
and a car, not enough learning capacity to study for both an economics exam and a chemistry
exam in one night, and not enough time to allow for extensive studying and extensive
socializing.
2. Find examples of scarcity in today’s headlines.
Scarcity is our inability to satisfy all our wants. An example of scarcity is the headline on
www.cbc.ca on March 30, 2020, which states “Farmers concerned about disruptions to spring
seeding, livestock operations amid COVID-19.” Farmers are preparing to plant their crops,
and supply disruptions mean that farmers are unable to plant all the crops that they want.
Farmers also want to hire foreign workers to help on livestock farms but a scarcity of foreign
workers means that they can’t hire the number of workers that they want. Farmers face
scarcity.
3. Find an example of the distinction between microeconomics and
macroeconomics in today’s headlines.
Microeconomics: On March 30, 2020, a headline in The Globe and Mail was “For graduating
students, high anxiety as COVID-19 decimates job market.” This story covers a
microeconomic topic because it discusses choices made by students and businesses, and
how they interact in the labour market.
Macroeconomics: On March 30, 2020, a headline in The Globe and Mail was “Canadian dollar
weakens over 1 per cent as oil prices slide.” This story covers a macroeconomic topic
because it concerns the effect of performances of the Canadian and world economy on the
Canadian dollar.

1. Describe the broad facts about what, how, and for whom goods and services are
produced.
What we produce varies over time. In Canada today, services account for 70 percent of
production, manufactured goods for 28 percent, and agriculture for 2 percent. What we
produce also varies over countries. Agriculture and manufacturing are small percentages of
production in rich countries and large percentages of production in poorer countries.
How goods and services are produced is by businesses determining how the factors of
production, land, labour, capital, and entrepreneurship, are combined to make the goods and
services we consume. Land includes all natural resources, both renewable natural resources
such as wood, and nonrenewable natural resources such as natural gas. The quality of labour
depends on human capital. In Canada in 2020, 28 percent of the adult population had a
