Economics/P2 14 Hlayiso/Mock 2026 NSC – Marking Guidelines SECTION C QUESTION 5: MICROECONOMICS 40 MARKS – 40 MINUTES Discuss in detail the supply side relationships, with the aid of graphs. (26 marks) Why is the supply of agricultural products usually price inelastic in the short run? (10 marks) INTRODUCTION Supply refers to the quantity of a product that producers are willing and able to offer for sale at different prices during a specific period. ✓✓ (Accept any other correct relevant introduction) (Max. 2) BODY: MAIN PART The law of supply ✓ • The law of supply states that, other things being equal (ceteris paribus), the higher the price of a product, the greater the quantity supplied, and the lower the price, the smaller the quantity supplied ✓✓ • There is a positive (direct) relationship between price and quantity supplied ✓✓ • Higher prices make production more profitable, so existing producers increase output and new producers enter the market ✓✓ • The supply curve therefore slopes upwards from left to right ✓✓ Change in quantity supplied (movement along the supply curve) ✓ • A change in the price of the product itself causes a movement along the same supply curve ✓✓ • An increase in price from P1 to P2 causes an increase (extension) in quantity supplied from Q1 to Q2 (point a to b) ✓✓ • A decrease in price causes a decrease (contraction) in quantity supplied ✓✓ Price Price S S1 S2 P2 b P P1 a 0 Q1 Q2 0 Q1 Q2 Quantity Quantity Graph 1: change in quantity supplied Graph 2: increase in supply (Max. 4 marks per graph: correct axes and curve labels 1, correct shift/movement 1, correct prices and quantities 1, explanation 1 – marked within the 26 marks) Change in supply (shift of the supply curve) ✓ • A change in a factor other than the price of the product causes the whole supply curve to shift ✓✓ • An increase in supply shifts the curve to the right (S1 to S2 ): more is supplied at every price ✓✓ Copyright reserved Please turn over
Economics/P2 15 Hlayiso/Mock 2026 NSC – Marking Guidelines • A decrease in supply shifts the curve to the left: less is supplied at every price ✓✓ Factors that cause a change in supply ✓ • Prices of factors of production (input costs): an increase in wages, fuel or electricity costs decreases supply ✓✓ • Technology: improved technology lowers production costs and increases supply ✓✓ • Prices of other goods: if the price of an alternative product rises, producers switch production and the supply of the original product decreases ✓✓ • Number of producers: more firms in the market increase supply ✓✓ • Government policy: taxes on production decrease supply, while subsidies increase supply ✓✓ • Natural conditions: droughts, floods and pests decrease the supply of agricultural products ✓✓ • Expectations of future prices: if producers expect higher prices, they may hold back stock and current supply decreases ✓✓ (Accept any other correct relevant response) (A maximum of 8 marks may be allocated for headings/examples) (Max. 26) ADDITIONAL PART • Farm products take a long time to produce (growing seasons), so farmers cannot quickly increase output when prices rise ✓✓ • Land under cultivation is fixed in the short run and cannot easily be expanded ✓✓ • Many agricultural products are perishable and cannot be stored, so supply cannot be held back when prices fall ✓✓ • Production depends on weather conditions that farmers cannot control ✓✓ • Specialised equipment and livestock cannot easily be moved to other uses (immobility of factors) ✓✓ • Farmers have limited spare (unused) capacity in the short run ✓✓ (Accept any other correct relevant response) (A maximum of 2 marks may be allocated for mere listing of facts/examples) (Max. 10) CONCLUSION The supply of a product depends on its price and on many other factors; producers who understand these relationships can plan production better, while the government can use taxes and subsidies to influence supply. ✓✓ (Accept any other correct relevant higher-order conclusion) (Max. 2) [40] Copyright reserved Please turn over
Economics/P2 16 Hlayiso/Mock 2026 NSC – Marking Guidelines QUESTION 6: CONTEMPORARY ECONOMIC ISSUES 40 MARKS – 40 MINUTES Discuss in detail the positive and negative effects of globalisation on developing countries. (26 marks) How can South Africa benefit more from globalisation? (10 marks) INTRODUCTION Globalisation is the process by which the economies of the world become increasingly integrated through international trade, the flow of capital and people, and the spread of technology and information. ✓✓ (Accept any other correct relevant introduction) (Max. 2) BODY: MAIN PART Positive effects ✓ • Access to larger markets: developing countries can export their products to markets all over the world, which increases export earnings ✓✓ • Foreign direct investment: MNCs build factories and mines, which creates jobs and increases production ✓✓ • Transfer of technology and skills: MNCs bring modern technology and management skills, which increases productivity ✓✓ • Cheaper and more variety of goods: consumers benefit from competition and cheaper imports ✓✓ • Economic growth: increased trade and investment raise GDP and government tax revenue ✓✓ • Access to information: the internet and mobile technology improve access to education, banking and markets ✓✓ • Tourism: easier travel increases the number of foreign tourists, which earns foreign exchange ✓✓ Negative effects ✓ • Competition from imports: local industries, e.g. clothing and textiles, cannot compete with cheap imports and close down, which causes job losses ✓✓ • Dependence on primary products: many developing countries continue to export raw materials with unstable prices ✓✓ • Profit outflows: profits of MNCs are sent back to their home countries ✓✓ • Exploitation of workers: MNCs may pay low wages and offer poor working conditions ✓✓ • Environmental damage: polluting industries may relocate to countries where environmental laws are weak ✓✓ • Brain drain: skilled workers move to developed countries in search of higher salaries ✓✓ • Financial instability: rapid outflows of short-term capital (“hot money”) can cause currency crises ✓✓ • Loss of culture: local cultures and traditional products are replaced by global brands ✓✓ • Increasing inequality: the benefits often go to skilled workers and large businesses, widening the gap between rich and poor ✓✓ (Accept any other correct relevant response) (A maximum of 8 marks may be allocated for headings/examples) (Max. 26) ADDITIONAL PART • Invest in education and skills so that workers can compete in a global economy ✓✓ Copyright reserved Please turn over
Economics/P2 17 Hlayiso/Mock 2026 NSC – Marking Guidelines • Process minerals and agricultural products locally before exporting (beneficiation) to earn more ✓✓ • Improve infrastructure, e.g. ports, rail and reliable electricity, to lower the cost of exporting ✓✓ • Create a stable policy environment to attract foreign direct investment ✓✓ • Use trade agreements (e.g. SADC and AfCFTA) to gain access to larger markets ✓✓ • Support small businesses to export through export incentives and trade missions ✓✓ • Promote South Africa as a tourist destination ✓✓ (Accept any other correct relevant response) (A maximum of 2 marks may be allocated for mere listing of facts/examples) (Max. 10) CONCLUSION Globalisation brings both opportunities and threats; developing countries benefit most when they build their skills, infrastructure and industries so that they can compete, rather than only supplying raw materials. ✓✓ (Accept any other correct relevant higher-order conclusion) (Max. 2) [40] TOTAL SECTION C: 40 GRAND TOTAL: 150 Copyright reserved
