Re: Edexel IGCSE Economics Syllabus

Here I am providing the Edexel IGCSE Economics Syllabus which you are looking for .

4.1 Basic economic problem: choice and the allocation of resources
Candidates should be able to:
• define the nature of the economic problem (finite resources and unlimited wants)
• define the factors of production (land, labour, capital, enterprise)
• define opportunity cost and analyse particular circumstances to illustrate the concept
• demonstrate how production possibility curves can be used to illustrate choice and resource allocation
• evaluate the implications of particular courses of action in terms of opportunity cost.

4.2 The allocation of resources: how the market works; market
failure
Candidates should be able to:
• describe the allocation of resources in market and mixed economic systems
• demonstrate the principle of equilibrium price and analyse simple market situations with changes in
demand and supply
• describe the causes of changes in demand and supply conditions and analyse such changes to show
effects in the market
• define price elasticity of demand and supply and perform simple calculations
• demonstrate the usefulness of price elasticity in particular situations such as revenue changes,
consumer expenditure
• evaluate the merits of the market system
• describe the concept of market failure and explain the reasons for its occurrence
• define private and social costs1 and benefits and discuss conflicts of interest in relation to these costs
and benefits in the short-term and long-term through studies of the following issues:
– conserving resources versus using resources
– public expenditure versus private expenditure.
1 Social costs are equal to the sum of private costs and external costs.
