2. What are resources of workers? How do they allocate their resources? (What are examples
for trade-offs made by workers)
Resources of workers are their time and talent, knowledge, working experience, etc. All these
resources are limited, so they have to make trade-offs. For example, they have to decide
when to enter the workforce (when finishing high schools or graduating from universities),
which job to do, who to work for. They can choose to work for large companies with job
security but limited potential for advancement or for small companies with more opportunity
for advancement but less security. They also have to decide how many hours for work and
how many hours for leisure and so on.
3. What are resources of firms? How do they allocate their resources? (What are examples
for trade-offs made by firms?)
Resources of firms are human resources, financial resources, production capacity,
technology, management ability, reputation (trade mark), brands, and so on. These resources
are scarce so companies have to make trade-offs. They have to decide what to produce, how
to produce and for whom to produce. For example, (lấy ví dụ về 1 công ty cụ thể). Thus, the
theory of the firm describes how companies can best make trade-offs.
4. How are prices important in the economy? / What is the important role of prices in the
economy?
Prices influence all trade-offs made by consumers, workers and firms. For example, when
prices of a good increase, consumers tend to buy substitutes even they don’t prefer them.
Workers choose employment depending partly on salaries paid to them. And, a firm’s
decisions such as buying more machinery or employing more workers depend partly on
prices of those machines or salaries paid to those workers.
6. What factors should be considered when making decisions on fiscal policy? Why?
When making decisions on its fiscal policy, the Government should consider a number of
factors, consisting of inside factors and outside factors.
Firstly, internal factors include economic factors such as economic growth rate,
unemployment rate and inflation rate. Moreover, the government also needs to consider non-
economic factors as well, for example, politic consideration.
Secondly, external factors may have a great influence of the fiscal policy of a country. For
example, fiscal policies of other countries may tempt multinational corporations to relocate
their subsidiaries due to that countries’ generous tax programs. Other factors can be
requirements of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), which often grants aid packages
subject to conditions relating to fiscal policy.
