Definitions and descriptions:
A. Term for a quantity expressed in terms of a point in
time (e.g. capital stock).
B. Increases net welfare in the presence of negative external
effects.
C. Selling price minus costs of a
good.
D. Difference between production
potential and actual output.
E. What you have to give up to get
something else.
F. Geometric location of all
combinations of goods that can be obtained through specialisation
and trade.
G. Budget deficit adjusted for
cyclical fluctuations.
H. Examples are notary and lawyer
fees and translation costs.
I. Claim that under certain
conditions private actors can solve the externalities problem among
themselves.
J. Geometric location of all combinations of goods that can be
produced when resources are fully utilised.
K. Opportunity costs of a producer
in the production of a certain good.
L. Developed the principle of
comparative advantage.
M. Productivity cost advantage of a
producer in the production of a given good.
N. Goods that have no exclusive or
competing uses.
O. Term for a variable that is
measured over time (e.g. net capital formation).
P. Analysed the advantages of
division of labour and trade in his 1776 work.
Q. Macroeconomic mechanisms, in
particular through the tax system and unemployment insurance, that
ensure that demand shocks have only a moderating effect on the
equilibrium income.
