Welcome to the course on Economic Systems. This course delves into the fundamental structures that underpin the ways in which societies organize their economic activities. In this comprehensive study, we will explore the various types of economic systems, including free enterprise, centrally planned, and mixed economies.

At the heart of our study are **basic concepts** that form the foundation of economic systems. These concepts help us understand how resources are allocated, goods and services are produced, and income is distributed within an economy. By grasping these concepts, students will be equipped to analyze and evaluate economic systems in different socio-economic contexts.

One of the core objectives of this course is to enable students to **compare the various economic systems**. By examining the features of free enterprise, centrally planned, and mixed economies, students will gain insights into the strengths and weaknesses of each system. Through this comparative analysis, students will develop a nuanced understanding of how economic systems impact resource allocation, production efficiency, and wealth distribution.

Understanding **economic problems** is another focal point of this course. Students will explore the challenges that arise within different economic systems, such as scarcity of resources, unemployment, inflation, and income inequality. By dissecting these economic problems, students will be able to identify the root causes and explore potential solutions within the frameworks of free enterprise, centrally planned, and mixed economies.

Moreover, this course will delve into **solutions to economic problems under different systems**. Students will be challenged to think critically about how policy interventions, market mechanisms, and government regulations can address economic challenges effectively. By examining case studies and real-world examples, students will develop problem-solving skills that are crucial for proposing viable solutions within diverse economic systems.

A significant aspect of this course is the exploration of **contemporary issues in economic systems**. From economic reforms to deregulation, students will analyze current trends and challenges shaping modern economies. By connecting theoretical concepts with real-world phenomena, students will gain practical insights into how economic systems evolve and adapt to changing circumstances in the global economic landscape.

Overall, this course equips students with the analytical tools and knowledge to not only understand the intricacies of economic systems but also to apply this knowledge to **contemporary issues in Nigeria**. By fostering critical thinking and problem-solving skills, this course empowers students to navigate the complexities of economic systems with confidence and proficiency.

(a) Types of Taxes:

Specific Tax: A specific tax is a tax that is fixed and imposed on a particular commodity regardless of its price. It is usually imposed as a fixed amount per unit of the commodity. For example, a government may impose a specific tax of $2 per unit of cigarette sold.
Value-added Tax (VAT): A value-added tax is a tax that is imposed at each stage of production and distribution of a commodity. It is calculated as a percentage of the value added at each stage of production or distribution. For example, if a manufacturer produces a shirt and sells it to a retailer for $10, and the VAT rate is 10%, the manufacturer will pay $1 as VAT. When the retailer sells the same shirt to a customer for $20, the retailer will collect $2 as VAT ($20 x 10%).

(bi) Effects of Indirect Tax on Commodity when Demand is Perfectly Inelastic:

When demand is perfectly inelastic, a change in price does not affect the quantity demanded. Therefore, the imposition of an indirect tax on the commodity will not affect the quantity demanded. The entire burden of the tax will be borne by the consumer, and the price paid by the consumer will increase by the full amount of the tax. The diagram below illustrates the effects of an indirect tax on a commodity with perfectly inelastic demand.

the demand curve is perfectly vertical, and the supply curve shifts upward to represent the tax. The vertical distance between the old and new supply curves represents the tax, and the entire burden is paid by the consumer as the price paid increases by the full amount of the tax.

(ii) Effects of Indirect Tax on Commodity when Demand is Perfectly Elastic:

When demand is perfectly elastic, a small increase in price will cause the quantity demanded to fall to zero. Therefore, the imposition of an indirect tax on the commodity will result in the entire burden of the tax being borne by the supplier. The price paid by the consumer will remain the same, and the supplier will have to bear the full amount of the tax. The diagram below illustrates the effects of an indirect tax on a commodity with perfectly elastic demand.

the demand curve is perfectly horizontal, and the supply curve shifts upward to represent the tax. The vertical distance between the old and new supply curves represents the tax, and the entire burden is paid by the supplier as the price received remains the same.
