A[edit]
- Absolute advantage – the ability of a party (an individual, or firm, or country) to produce a greater quantity of a good, product, or service than competitors, using the same amount of resources. (Resource cost advantage)
- Abandonment of the gold standard – When a government decides not to have their currency backed by gold reserves and instead adopt fiat money.
- Adaptive expectations – is a hypothesized process by which people form their expectations about what will happen in the future based on what has happened in the past.
- Aggregate demand – aggregate demand (AD) or domestic final demand (DFD) is the total demand for final goods and services in an economy at a given time.[1] It specifies the amounts of goods and services that will be purchased at all possible price levels.[2] This is the demand for the gross domestic product of a country. It is often called effective demand, though at other times this term is distinguished.
- Aggregate supply –
- Aggregation problem – is the difficult problem of finding a valid way to treat an empirical or theoretical aggregate as if it reacted like a less-aggregated measure, say, about behavior of an individual agent as described in general microeconomic theory.[3]
- Agent – is an actor and more specifically a decision maker in a model of some aspect of the economy.
- Agricultural economics – is an applied field of economics concerned with the application of economic theory in optimizing the production and distribution of food.
- Allocative efficiency – is a state of the economy in which production represents consumer preferences; in particular, every good or service is produced up to the point where the last unit provides a marginal benefit to consumers equal to the marginal cost of producing. In the single-price model, at the point of allocative efficiency, price is equal to marginal cost.[4][5]
- Antitrust law – Competition law is a law that promotes or seeks to maintain market competition by regulating anti-competitive conduct by companies.[6][7] Competition law is implemented through public and private enforcement.[8] Competition law is known as "antitrust law" in the United States for historical reasons, and as "anti-monopoly law" in China[6] and Russia.
- Applied economics – is the application of economic theory and econometrics in specific settings. As one of the two sets of fields of economics (the other set being the core),[9] it is typically characterized by the application of the core, i.e. economic theory and econometrics, to address practical issues in a range of fields.
- Appropriate technology – is a movement (and its manifestations) encompassing technological choice and application that is small-scale, decentralized, labor-intensive, energy-efficient, environmentally sound, and locally autonomous.[10]
- Arbitrage – is the practice of taking advantage of a price difference between two or more markets: striking a combination of matching deals that capitalize upon the imbalance, the profit being the difference between the market prices.
- Arrow's impossibility theorem –
- Austrian School – is a heterodox[11][12][13] school of economic thought that is based on methodological individualism—the concept that social phenomena result from the motivations and actions of individuals.[14][15][16]
- Autarky – is the quality of being self-sufficient; the term is usually applied to political states or their economic systems. Autarky exists whenever an entity can survive or continue its activities without external assistance or international trade. If a self-sufficient economy also refuses all trade with the outside world then it is called a closed economy.[17]
- Automatic stabilizer – is a feature of the structure of modern government budgets, particularly income taxes and welfare spending, that act to dampen fluctuations in real GDP.[18]
- Autonomous consumption –
- Average cost – or unit cost is equal to total cost divided by the number of goods produced (the output quantity, Q). It is also equal to the sum of variable costs (total variable costs divided by Q) plus average fixed costs (total fixed costs divided by Q).
- Average fixed cost – is the fixed costs of production (FC) divided by the quantity (Q) of output produced. Fixed costs are those costs that must be incurred in fixed quantity regardless of the level of output produced.
- Average variable cost – is a firm's variable costs (labour, electricity, etc.) divided by the quantity of output produced. Variable costs are those costs which vary with the output.
- Average tax rate –
B[edit]
- Backward induction –
- Balance of payments –
- Balance of trade – The balance of trade, commercial balance, or net exports (sometimes symbolized as NX), is the difference between the monetary value of a nation's exports and imports over a certain period.[19] Sometimes a distinction is made between a balance of trade for goods versus one for services. "Balance of trade" can be a misleading term because trade measures a flow of exports and imports over a given period of time, rather than a balance of exports and imports at a given point in time. Also, balance of trade does not mean that exports and imports are "in balance" with each other or anything else.
- Balanced budget – A balanced budget (particularly that of a government) is a budget in which revenues are equal to expenditures. Thus, neither a budget deficit nor a budget surplus exists (the accounts "balance"). More generally, it is a budget that has no budget deficit, but could possibly have a budget surplus.[20] A cyclically balanced budget is a budget that is not necessarily balanced year-to-year, but is balanced over the economic cycle, running a surplus in boom years and running a deficit in lean years, with these offsetting over time.
- Bank – A bank is a financial institution that accepts deposits from the public and creates credit.[21] Lending activities can be performed either directly or indirectly through capital markets. Due to their importance in the financial stability of a country, banks are highly regulated in most countries. Most nations have institutionalized a system known as fractional reserve banking under which banks hold liquid assets equal to only a portion of their current liabilities. In addition to other regulations intended to ensure liquidity, banks are generally subject to minimum capital requirements based on an international set of capital standards, known as the Basel Accords.
- Barriers to entry – In theories of competition in economics, a barrier to entry, or an economic barrier to entry, is a cost that must be incurred by a new entrant into a market that incumbents do not have or have not had to incur.[22][23] Because barriers to entry protect incumbent firms and restrict competition in a market, they can contribute to distortionary prices and are therefore most important when discussing antitrust policy. Barriers to entry often cause or aid the existence of monopolies or give companies market power.
- Barter – In trade, barter (derived from baretor[24]) is a system of exchange where participants in a transaction directly exchange goods or services for other goods or services without using a medium of exchange, such as money.[25] Economists distinguish barter from gift economies in many ways; barter, for example, features immediate reciprocal exchange, not delayed in time. Barter usually takes place on a bilateral basis, but may be multilateral (i.e., mediated through a trade exchange). In most developed countries, barter usually only exists parallel to monetary systems to a very limited extent. Market actors use barter as a replacement for money as the method of exchange in times of monetary crisis, such as when currency becomes unstable (e.g., hyperinflation or a deflationary spiral) or simply unavailable for conducting commerce.
- Behavioral economics – studies the effects of psychological, cognitive, emotional, cultural and social factors on the economic decisions of individuals and institutions and how those decisions vary from those implied by classical theory.[26]
- Bellman equation –
- Bequest motive –
- Bertrand–Edgeworth model –
- Black–Scholes model – The Black–Scholes /ˌblæk
ˈʃoʊlz/[27] or Black–Scholes–Merton model is a mathematical model for the dynamics of a financial market containing derivative investment instruments. From the partial differential equation in the model, known as the Black–Scholes equation, one can deduce the Black–Scholes formula, which gives a theoretical estimate of the price of European-style options and shows that the option has a unique price regardless of the risk of the security and its expected return (instead replacing the security's expected return with the risk-neutral rate). The formula led to a boom in options trading and provided mathematical legitimacy to the activities of the Chicago Board Options Exchange and other options markets around the world.[28] It is widely used, although often with adjustments and corrections, by options market participants.[29]:751 - Board of governors – It is the main governing body of the Federal Reserve of the United States that directs the operations of the Fed. Its seven members supervises the 12 Federal Reserve Districts.
- Bond – In finance, a bond is an instrument of indebtedness of the bond issuer to the holders. The most common types of bonds include municipal bonds and corporate bonds. The bond is a debt security, under which the issuer owes the holders a debt and (depending on the terms of the bond) is obliged to pay them interest (the coupon) or to repay the principal at a later date, termed the maturity date.[30] Interest is usually payable at fixed intervals (semiannual, annual, sometimes monthly). Very often the bond is negotiable, that is, the ownership of the instrument can be transferred in the secondary market. This means that once the transfer agents at the bank medallion stamp the bond, it is highly liquid on the secondary market.[31]
- Break-even (economics) – The break-even point (BEP) in economics, business—and specifically cost accounting—is the point at which total cost and total revenue are equal, i.e. "even". There is no net loss or gain, and one has "broken even", though opportunity costs have been paid and capital has received the risk-adjusted, expected return. In short, all costs that must be paid are paid, and there is neither profit nor loss.[32][33]

- Big push model –
- Business cycle – The business cycle, also known as the economic cycle or trade cycle, is the downward and upward movement of gross domestic product (GDP) around its long-term growth trend.[34] The length of a business cycle is the period of time containing a single boom and contraction in sequence. These fluctuations typically involve shifts over time between periods of relatively rapid economic growth (expansions or booms), and periods of relative stagnation or decline (contractions or recessions).
- Business economics – is a field in applied economics which uses economic theory and quantitative methods to analyze business enterprises and the factors contributing to the diversity of organizational structures and the relationships of firms with labour, capital and product markets.[35]
- Business sector – the business sector or corporate sector - sometimes popularly called simply "business" - is "the part of the economy made up by companies".[36] It is a subset of the domestic economy,[37]
excluding the economic activities of general government, of private households, and of non-profit organizations serving individuals.[38]
