MCQ

Solution

Land is indestructible, labour is perishable and capital is a passive factor of production.

Explanation:

  1. Land is indestructible: This means that the physical existence of land cannot be destroyed, although its quality or fertility can be affected by various factors.
  2. Labour is perishable: Labour is considered perishable because it cannot be stored for future use; if a worker does not work on a given day, the potential output from that day's labour is lost forever.
  3. Capital is a passive factor of production: Capital is considered passive because it requires the active involvement of labour to be productive. Capital alone cannot produce goods or services without the direction and use of labour.
