Real estate is bought and sold on the basis of which of the following economic concepts?
A
Willingness to pay of buyers and sellers
B
Marginal cost of production
C
Average fixed cost
D
Government-imposed price ceilings
Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the concept of 'willingness to pay' which refers to the maximum amount a buyer is ready to pay for a good or service, reflecting the value they place on it.
Recognize that sellers have a 'willingness to accept' or minimum price at which they are willing to sell, often related to their costs and desired profit.
Realize that real estate transactions occur when the buyer's willingness to pay meets or exceeds the seller's willingness to accept, leading to mutually beneficial exchanges.
Compare this with other options: 'Marginal cost of production' relates to the cost of producing one more unit, which is less relevant in real estate since properties are unique and not mass-produced.
'Average fixed cost' and 'government-imposed price ceilings' are specific economic concepts but do not directly explain the basis of buying and selling in real estate markets.
