Text 1
The American economic system is organized around a basically
private-enterprise, market-oriented economy in which consumers largely determine
what shall be produced by spending their money in the marketplace for those goods
and services that they want most. Private businessmen, striving to make profits,
produce these goods and services in competition with other businessmen; and the
profit motive, operating under competitive pressures, largely determines how these
goods and services are produced. Thus, in the American economic system it is the
demand of individual consumers, coupled with the desire of businessmen to maximize
profits and the desire of individuals to maximize their incomes, that together
determine what shall be produced and how resources are used to produce it.
An important factor in a market-oriented economy is the mechanism by which
consumer demands can be expressed and responded to by producers. In the American
economy, this mechanism is provided by a price system, a process in which prices rise
and fall in response to relative demands of consumers and supplies offered by
seller-producers. If the product is in short supply relative to the demand, the price will
be bid up and some consumers will be eliminated from the market. If, on the other
hand, producing more of a commodity results in reducing its cost, this will tend to
increase the supply offered by seller-producers, which in turn will lower the price and
permit more consumers to buy the product. Thus, price is the regulating mechanism in
the American economic system.
The important factor in a private-enterprise economy is that individuals are
allowed to own productive resources (private property), and they are permitted to hire
labor, gain control over natural resources, and produce goods and services for sale at a
profit. In the American economy, the concept of private property embraces not only
the ownership of productive resources but also certain rights, including the right to
determine the price of a product or to make a free contract with another private
individual.
51. In Line 11, Paragraph 1, “the desire of individuals to maximize their incomes”
means ________.
[A] Americans are never satisfied with their incomes
[B] Americans tend to overstate their incomes
[C] Americans want to have their incomes increased
[D] Americans want to increase the purchasing power of their income
