Question

Ezra runs a gyro stall at the local farmers' market. He would like to expand and open his own shop downtown. He has made the chart above, listing some potential costs and benefits of expansion. What concept does this chart most clearly illustrate? Businesses must respond to consumer demand. Competition requires businesses to expand. Economic choices result in trade-offs. The benefits of economic growth outweigh the costs.

Answer 1

Answer: Economic choices result in trade-offs.

Step-by-step explanation:

The chart simply purports to show that when making economic decisions, you will have to accept trade-offs because resources are not infinite.

For instance, in order to expand, you will need to take on more financial risk. In that same vein, in order to serve more people, you will have to divide time between two stalls and might end up closing a stall.

Trade-offs simply have to be made.
