Central problem of economics

In economics, the central problem revolves around making choices due to scarcity of resources. When deciding whether to set up a yogurt ice cream stall versus attending university, one must consider the concept of opportunity cost.

Q1: Explain the concept of scarcity, choice and opportunity cost when you are deciding whether to set up the Yoghurt ice cream stall.

Opportunity cost
From the Society's perspective

Giving up the next best alternative when scarce resources like buildings and electricity for lighting are used to teach me during university and the very same resources cannot produce the next best output possible (Eg. healthcare)

From my perspective

Giving up the next best alternative, in this case the forgone income from the best job i can get with my A level results when i choose to go university.

Choice
Opening a yoghurt Ice Cream store at Ang Mo Kio instead of choosing to go university
Scarcity
unlimited wants

Opening a yogurt ice cream stall in Ang Mo Kio

going to the university

limited resources

Resources is also scarce as i will only have a limited amount of capital, land, raw materials and labour.

Time is scarce as it is impossible to have time to study in University as well as to manage a yoghurt Ice Cream store
