SHORT NOTE AND QUESTIONS for grade 9
2013 Week 2
ECONOMIC SYSTEM
An economic system is a system by which we produce and distribute the commodities and
services we need in life.

 The term we use for needs and wants is called Demands.


 Our demands are unlimited but the supply of what we want and need is limited,
particularly where resources are limited. Therefore we have to find a way to balance our
demands with our supply through our economic system.

THERE ARE THREE ECONOMIC SYSTEMS IN THE WORLD


These are:

1. Command ( Planned Economic System)


In such economic system, economic decisions of what to produce and how to
produce or distribute is centrally controlled by the government.
2. Free Market Economic System
This type of economic system gives the freedom of producing and distributing goods
and services to individuals.
3. Mixed Economic System
This is an economic system which allows freedom both to individuals and the
government to involve in the economic system. It is a mixture of the two economic
systems.
