Economic activities are those efforts which are under taken by man to earn income , money, wealth for his life and to secure maximum satisfaction of wants with limited and scarce means.
The circular flow of income model describes the reciprocal flow of money between households and firms. Households supply factors of production like labor to firms and receive income, while firms supply goods and services to households in exchange. This forms a continuous loop referred to as the circular flow of income, with payments in each direction. The model can be expanded to include government and foreign trade. It helps explain macroeconomic concepts like GDP, equilibrium, and the effects of policies.
Economic activities involve the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services to satisfy human needs and wants. They have three main factors: production, distribution and commercialization, and consumption. There are four main types of economic activities: primary involves extracting natural resources; secondary involves manufacturing; tertiary involves providing services; and quaternary involves high-tech research and information services. Capitalism is based on a free market system where supply and demand determine prices. Key economic agents in the market include families, companies, and the public sector which provides services and infrastructure to citizens.

National income accounting involves calculating the total value of all final goods and services produced in a country in a year. It can be measured using the expenditure approach, income approach, or product approach. There are several challenges to accurate national income calculation including non-monetized sectors, illiteracy, lack of expertise, less sophisticated tools, double counting, false reporting, and multi-occupations. National income data is used to measure economic growth, real income, per capita income, and growth rates.

This document discusses several methods used to measure economic development. It describes common metrics like gross national product (GNP) and per capita income, as well as indexes that account for other factors like quality of life, education, health and gender equality. These include the Physical Quality of Life Index, Human Development Index, Capability Approach, and Gender Related Development Index. No single measure can fully capture a country's economic development, so economists consider multiple criteria to evaluate progress.

National income is the total value of all goods and services produced in a country in a year. It can be measured using various methods such as the production, income, and expenditure methods. The production method sums the value of output from all sectors. The income method sums factor incomes like wages, interest, rent, and profits. The expenditure method sums expenditures on consumption, investment, government spending, and exports/imports. National income statistics are important for measuring economic growth, standards of living, and making country comparisons.
This document discusses economic growth and development. It defines economic growth as an increase in a country's production capacity over time, which can be measured in nominal or real terms. Economic development involves policy interventions to develop human capital, infrastructure, health, and welfare. It aims to improve living standards and is measured by indicators like the Human Development Index. Factors like inflation, taxes, interest rates, and government policies can affect economic development. The document also discusses India's economic growth and development in recent decades since economic reforms began in 1991.
Economic activity can be classified into five sectors:
1) The primary sector involves extraction of natural resources and includes activities like agriculture, fishing, mining and forestry. It dominates in underdeveloped countries.
2) The secondary sector transforms raw materials into goods through manufacturing and industry. It contributes moderately to national income in developed countries.
3) The tertiary sector provides services to consumers and businesses. It accounts for most employment in developed countries.
4) The quaternary sector is knowledge-based and includes information technology, research and development, and knowledge services.
5) The quinary sector involves the highest levels of decision making in government, science, and other major institutions.
Karl Gunnar Myrdal was a Swedish economist who received the Nobel Prize in Economics in 1974. He is known for his theories of cumulative causation, backwash effects, and the need for government intervention to promote balanced regional development. According to Myrdal, free market forces tend to increase inequalities between developed and underdeveloped regions. The backwash effects of economic activity in developed regions drain wealth from poorer regions in a vicious cycle of underdevelopment.
The document discusses general equilibrium theory and its key assumptions and implications. It addresses the following points in 3 sentences:
General equilibrium theory posits that all markets, including both product and factor markets, will reach equilibrium simultaneously. This equilibrium will be Pareto optimal, meaning no individual can be made better off without making another worse off due to optimal resource allocation. The model assumes perfect competition, constant returns to scale, and that equilibrium is determined by price adjustments across interconnected markets.
Effects of public expenditure on economy production distributionBhaumiki
Public expenditure on education in India has remained below the target of 6% of GDP, reaching a maximum of only 4.3% of GDP. Government expenditure on education as a percentage of total government expenditure averages around 13.5%. However, achieving the 6% of GDP target for education would require a substantial increase in funding, as the GDP has been growing faster than the rate of increase in education spending. Analyzing trends in public expenditure is important for understanding challenges in meeting policy targets for education financing.
There are mainly three types of economic system that are socialist, capitalist and mixed economy. Any of country of the world exist in any one of them and followed them.
This document discusses concepts related to measuring national income, including gross domestic product (GDP), net domestic product (NDP), gross national product (GNP), and net national product (NNP). It describes how national income is the total value of all final goods and services produced within a nation in a year. National income can be measured using several methods, including the product method, income method, and expenditure method. The document also notes some challenges in accurately measuring national income.
The economy of the world is fast changing during the recent years.
The changes in primary, secondary and tertiary stages are dynamic in nature.
In view of this, the objectives of studying economic geography are to integrate several factors of economic development to acquaint with the dynamic aspects of the Scenario. This module is about basics of economic geography.
This document provides an overview of economic activities and systems. It defines economic activity as the process of satisfying human material needs through production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services. It describes the main factors of production as natural resources, capital, and labor. The document then explains different types of economic systems including tradition-based systems, capitalism/free markets, central planning, and mixed economies.
Indian agriculture has been practiced since ancient times and remains an important sector of the Indian economy, with around 55% of the population still dependent on it. Some key features include small landholdings, dependence on monsoon rains, a variety of food and cash crops grown, and low productivity. However, government initiatives like the Green Revolution have increased crop yields significantly. Agriculture continues to be the backbone of India due to its economic and employment contributions, though complete mechanization and other improvements are still needed.
The document discusses India's history of economic planning through five-year plans since 1951. It outlines the objectives and focus of each five-year plan such as promoting industrialization, agriculture, poverty alleviation, and self-reliance. The Planning Commission was established in 1950 to coordinate and execute the plans aimed at equitable resource use, economic growth, and reducing economic disparities across regions. Each successive plan targeted higher GDP growth rates with varying degrees of achievement.
The document defines factors of production as the resources used to produce goods and services. It identifies the four main factors of production as land, labor, capital, and enterprise. It provides details on each factor, including definitions, types, and the payments made to each.
This document provides an introduction to microeconomics. It defines microeconomics as the study of individual economic units such as consumers, firms, and markets. The key topics of microeconomics discussed include consumption, production, exchange, distribution, product and factor pricing, and welfare economics. Microeconomics uses partial equilibrium analysis and focuses on price theory to understand how prices allocate resources and goods are distributed. It takes a "worm's eye view" of the economy by examining individual parts rather than the whole system.
This document defines and categorizes different types of goods. It discusses goods according to their:
1) Material existence as either material/tangible goods or non-material/intangible goods like services
2) Supply characteristics as either free goods, economic goods
3) Transferability as either transferable goods that can be owned by others or non-transferable goods like skills
4) End use as either consumer goods that directly satisfy wants or producer/capital goods that are used to make other goods
5) Ownership as either public goods commonly owned or private goods owned by individuals
6) Durability as either single-use/monoproduction goods or durable/polyperiod goods that can be reused over
This document defines and discusses fiscal policy in India. It begins by introducing fiscal policy and its objectives of stabilizing the economy. It then defines fiscal policy as involving government revenue collection through taxation and spending. The objectives and instruments of fiscal policy are outlined, including the budget, taxation, public expenditure, and public debt. Data on India's fiscal deficit is presented, showing it as a percentage of GDP from 2005-2014. The achievements and reforms of India's fiscal policy are highlighted, such as increasing resources and savings. The Fiscal Responsibility and Budget Management Act of 2003 is described as institutionalizing financial discipline and reducing deficits. Current fiscal policy targets reducing the deficit to 3% of GDP by 2017-2018.
Economics comes from the Greek word oikonomia which means household chores. Economics is considered a field of social science. Economics is relevant because it is part of everybody’s life. As a science, Economics is related to other sciences.
Define and distinguish between economic growth and economic development.Mahendra Kumar Ghadoliya
Economic growth refers to the increase in a country's GDP over a short period of time, while economic development is a long-term process that leads to increased real national income as well as qualitative social changes like reduced poverty and inequality. The key features of an underdeveloped country include low per capita income, widespread poverty, low productivity, and dependence on agriculture and primary exports. Causes of underdevelopment include scarcity of resources, lack of capital, outdated technology, and effects of colonialism.
Culture consists of shared knowledge, language, values, and material objects that are learned and internalized. It began forming around early civilizations along major river valleys in Mesopotamia, Egypt, India, and China, where agriculture led to permanent settlements and specialized labor. Culture changes through both internal evolution and external forces such as technology, diffusion, and acculturation between groups.
Here are some key concepts about the growth of language shown through the development of the English language:
- Languages evolve and change over time as they come into contact with other languages and cultures through things like migration, trade, conquest, etc. Old English was transformed into Middle English by Norman French influences after the Norman conquest.
- Languages diffuse from their origin as their speakers migrate and settle new lands, spreading the language with them. English diffused from Britain to its colonies around the world.
- A language may take on new prestige and importance based on political, economic or cultural factors. As the British Empire grew, so did the global influence and spread of English.
- The core vocabulary and grammar of a language remains intact

McKinley being the highest point in North America located in Alaska's Denali National Park, the Aleutian Islands containing active volcanoes in Alaska, Death Valley as the lowest point in North America located in California, the Great Basin region, the Hawaiian volcanic islands, and the Cascade Mountains containing Mt. St. Helens in Washington state which erupted in 1980.
The document defines and provides examples of different types of political geography terms including compact states, elongated states, fragmented states, microstates, perforated states, protruded states, buffer states, landlocked states, enclaves, exclaves, and the east/west and north/south divides. It describes the key characteristics of each term, such as a compact state having a roughly circular territory with equal distance to the center, an elongated state being long and narrow, and a buffer state being a small country between two larger powers.
This document provides information on four key types of agriculture - shifting cultivation, wet rice cultivation, plantation agriculture, and high-tech farming. It describes the inputs, processes, and outputs of each type. It also discusses where these agricultural practices are commonly used and provides examples. The document aims to help students understand and explain the different agricultural types by the end of the geography unit.
The document discusses various topics related to cultural geography including what culture is, how cultures change and diffuse, and theories about cultural evolution and diffusion. It also discusses global diffusion of Western culture and current perceptions of American culture. Cultures are learned and shared systems of symbols, behaviors and meanings that are passed down within societies. Cultures can change internally through technological developments or externally through processes of cultural diffusion and acculturation between societies.
This document defines cultural diffusion as the process by which cultural characteristics spread across space over time. It identifies two main types of diffusion: expansion diffusion, where an idea develops in one place and spreads outward while remaining strong in the source area; and relocation diffusion, where an idea spreads through the physical movement of people from one place to another. The document provides examples of different patterns of expansion diffusion, including hierarchical, contagious, and stimulus diffusion.
The document discusses different types of economic activities including business, profession, and employment. Business activities involve the regular production and distribution of goods and services for profit. A profession requires specialized knowledge and training. Employment refers to work done regularly for others in exchange for a salary or wage.
The document introduces the three main types of employment: primary involves gathering raw materials like farming, forestry, mining, and fishing. Secondary involves manufacturing products from raw materials, such as the Ford engine plant. Tertiary provides services, which is the largest employment sector in the UK including retailing, armed forces, and entertainment. A fourth category of quaternary activities was later added for high-tech research and development. Examples are given of different industries and which sector they fall under. The summary concludes that employment structures change over time with economic development levels.
The document defines key concepts related to states and governments. It explains that a state is a territory with a government that has full control over internal and external affairs, while a nation refers to a group of people with a shared culture. It then lists and provides brief descriptions of four main types of governments: democracy, monarchy, dictatorship, and communism.
The document discusses different aspects of political geography including the differences between nations and states. It provides examples of nations without states, such as the Kurds, Basques, and Quebecois people. Geographic characteristics that can impact countries are also outlined, such as size, shape, and location. Countries with access to sea trade or located near peaceful nations tend to have economic and security advantages.
There are several types of states depending on their system of government and leadership. Monarchies have a king or queen as the head of state, typically for life, while republics have a leader chosen by citizens for a fixed term, such as a president. Democracies are characterized by free and fair elections, separation of powers, and government rule by the people. States can also be classified based on their role in the economy, such as liberal states with minimal intervention or welfare states that provide social services, as well as their level of decentralization.

I hope it will helps you all ..........................Thankyou....................Regards..........................Rahul Kumar
Economics is concerned with how humans use scarce resources to satisfy unlimited wants. It studies production, distribution, exchange, and consumption of goods and services. It also examines human activities involving buying and selling, with a focus on goods that have value through exchange rather than just satisfying personal wants. The key aspects of economics include scarcity, choice, allocation of resources, and the determination of prices, production, and distribution in a society.
This document provides an introduction to economics, including definitions of economics from various economists and an overview of key economic concepts. It defines economics as the study of efficient allocation of scarce resources to satisfy unlimited wants. It also describes the main branches of economics as microeconomics, which focuses on small economic units like households, and macroeconomics, which looks at whole economies. Additionally, it outlines the problem of scarcity due to limited economic resources and identifies the main factors of production as land, labor, capital, and entrepreneurship.
This document provides an overview of the foundations of business and economics. It discusses how early societies engaged in bartering as people specialized in different skills and trades. This led to the emergence of business as a way to facilitate the exchange of goods and services. The core functions of business require human participants in roles like owners, managers, employees and consumers. An economic system must determine how a society's resources will be allocated and distributed to satisfy people's needs and wants. Different systems like capitalism, socialism and mixed economies take different approaches to these functions.
Principles of Management Chapter 1 Business in GeneralDr. John V. Padua
The document provides an overview of business concepts including:
- What is business and its relationship to the economy. Business produces goods and services to meet consumer needs in exchange for profit.
- The key factors of production are land, labor, capital and entrepreneurship. Business uses these factors to produce goods and services for the economy.
- There are different types of businesses including industries, commerce and services. Different economic systems like capitalism and socialism are also discussed.

LESSON 1 DEFINING AND UNDERSTANDING MICROECONOMICS.pptxLeighTajon
Microeconomics studies how individuals, households, and firms make decisions to allocate scarce resources. The key problems addressed are scarcity, demand, and efficient resource allocation. Scarcity means that resources are limited in supply compared to human wants. This requires making choices to satisfy the most urgent needs. Microeconomics aims to understand how to maximize satisfaction given scarce resources.

Decolonizing Universal Design for LearningFrederic Fovet
UDL has gained in popularity over the last decade both in the K-12 and the post-secondary sectors. The usefulness of UDL to create inclusive learning experiences for the full array of diverse learners has been well documented in the literature, and there is now increasing scholarship examining the process of integrating UDL strategically across organisations. One concern, however, remains under-reported and under-researched. Much of the scholarship on UDL ironically remains while and Eurocentric. Even if UDL, as a discourse, considers the decolonization of the curriculum, it is abundantly clear that the research and advocacy related to UDL originates almost exclusively from the Global North and from a Euro-Caucasian authorship. It is argued that it is high time for the way UDL has been monopolized by Global North scholars and practitioners to be challenged. Voices discussing and framing UDL, from the Global South and Indigenous communities, must be amplified and showcased in order to rectify this glaring imbalance and contradiction.
This session represents an opportunity for the author to reflect on a volume he has just finished editing entitled Decolonizing UDL and to highlight and share insights into the key innovations, promising practices, and calls for change, originating from the Global South and Indigenous Communities, that have woven the canvas of this book. The session seeks to create a space for critical dialogue, for the challenging of existing power dynamics within the UDL scholarship, and for the emergence of transformative voices from underrepresented communities. The workshop will use the UDL principles scrupulously to engage participants in diverse ways (challenging single story approaches to the narrative that surrounds UDL implementation) , as well as offer multiple means of action and expression for them to gain ownership over the key themes and concerns of the session (by encouraging a broad range of interventions, contributions, and stances).

Economic activities are
related to production ,
distribution , exchange and
consumption of goods and
services.
The primary aim of the
economic activity is the
production of goods and
services with a view to
make them available to
consumer.
4. “Human activities which are
performed in exchange for money or
money’s worth are called economic
activities”.
In other words , economic activities
are those efforts which are under
taken by man to earn income ,
money, wealth for his life and to
secure maximum satisfaction of
wants with limited and scarce means.
•E.g. A worker works in a
factory and gets wages.
5. NON ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES
Activities which do not have any
economic motive and are performed
with a feeling of love, sympathy,
humanity and patriotism are known as
non - economic activities.
e.g. playing, dancing ,giving donation, a
housewife cooking food for family , or a
boy helping an old man cross the road
etc.
6. OBJECTIVES
Economic activities are undertaken to
produce goods and services so that human
wants are satisfied . The human efforts
are directed for the welfare of society .
All kinds of occupations and professions
are undertaken to create wealth and
satisfy human needs . Fisher gives two
objectives for economic activities , i.e.,
proper allocation of resources and optimum
use of resources.
7. 1. Proper Allocation of Resources :
The economic resources are limited and
their requirements are many . It is
essential to make a judicious allocation of
resources so that maximum needs
satisfied. Every person assesses his needs
resources . He determines his priorities
for applying his resources . Some needs
are urgent while others may wait for some
time . An effort is made to get maximum
satisfaction out of the use of available
resources.
8. 2. Optimum Use of Resources
The other objective of economic
activities is the optimum use of
resources. The resources should be put
their maximum use. Various factors of
production like land, labour capital, etc.
should be used in producing goods in
such a way that no part is idle. The
optimum is the level of greatest
satisfaction and nothing can go beyond
it.

10. 2. Satisfying Human Wants: The main aim
of economic activities is to satisfy
human needs. The needs to be satisfied
may be present or future . When a
person undertakes a job to earn money
and buy necessities for his family then
it will be satisfying present needs . And
when a person saves money out of his
current earnings for satisfying his
needs after the retirement then it will
be a plan for the future.
11. 3. Money Income : All economic activities,
these may be related to business,
profession or service , help in earning
money income. People undertake these

with the help of money earned through
productive activities. A living is possible
with money income earned from
economic activities.
12. 4.Developmental Activities : Economic
activities not only satisfy human wants but
also become a basis for economic
development of the society. When old
needs are satisfied then new needs crop
up. The economic resources are employed
to produce new products and this process
helps in generating employment avenues
and ultimately the money income . The
social development is linked to the
economic activities undertaken there.
