An economic good is a good or service that has a benefit (utility) to society. Also, economic goods have a degree of scarcity and therefore an opportunity cost. This is in contrast to a free good (like air, sea, water) where there is no opportunity cost – but abundance.

Conclusion

Aggregate demand and aggregate supply are triggered together to determine the equilibrium. Equilibrium is the point where supply and demand meet. According to Hume, in the short run, an increase in the money supply tends to lead to an increase in production.

Credits

The credit is given to Hume, he is the one who uploaded these videos to YouTube in order for us to get very useful content.

I also used some textbooks to find the content of this topic, so I give credit to the authors.
