Economics is basically the study of the decisions a society makes regard-ing the production of goods and services and the division of this among its peo-ple. As we shall see， different societies make these decisions in very differentways， but all societies are faced with the same problems —— how to use theireconomic resources to the best possible advantage. By economic resources we mean all natural， human， and manufacturedresources that go into the production of goods and services. That includes allthe factory and farm buildings and all the equipment， tools and machinery usedto produce manufactured goods and agricultural products； all tmnspotaion andcommunication facilities. labor is a very broad term that covers all different mental and physical ca-pabilities and skill possessed by human beings that can be used to producegoods and services. Labor is thus the largest single resource or input availableto any society. Labor is scarce relative to the desire for the output of goods andservices made with the help of labor. Labor consists of the services provided bydoctors， teachers， drivers， construction workers and so forth. Simply speak-iog， labor comprises the physical and mental skills and capabilities possessedby humans， which are used in the process of production. Capital is divided into two categories. One is financial capital that con-sists of "paper" assets or claims like bonds， stocks and savings accounts.
