Define technical efficiency
Output is achieved with lowest possible inputs
100
Describe the meaning of inelastic supply
A change in price leads to a relatively small change in quantity supplied
100
The main reason why countries specialise in producing something
They can produce it at a lower cost
100
The name for the formation of laws by the government
Legislation
100
This indicates that a good is a normal good
It has positive income elasticity of demand
200
This is allocative efficiency
Firms produce exactly what is demanded so that welfare is maximised
200
This is consumer surplus
This is the difference between the price consumers are willing to pay for a good and equilibrium price
200
This is the market
Where buyers and sellers meet to exchange goods and services

500
Define average variable costs
Total variable costs divided by output
500
This is producer surplus
The difference between the price at which producers are willing to supply a good and the equilibrium price
500
This is productive efficiency
When a level of production is achieved at lowest cost
500
