1 Economies of South Africa & Nigeria
2 Essential Question How do the African economies of South Africa and Nigeria compare and contrast?
3 I CAN Explain how the African economies of South Africa and Nigeria compare and contrast.
4 Economic Systems A way a society organizes the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services. Three basic questions each economic system has to answer: What to produce? How to produce? For whom to produce? Four types of Economic Systems: Traditional Command Market Mixed
5 Most countries have a mixed economy located on a continuum between pure market and pure command Pure Command Pure Market
6 Type of Economy: South Africa Mixed; technologically advanced Strongest & most developed in Africa.
7 South Africa Place on the continuum: South Africa is a strong market economy with some command characteristics. Pure Command Pure Market
8 Goods Produced/Major Exports: South Africa Mining (platinum, diamonds, gold), automobile assembly, machinery, textiles, iron and steel manufacturing, chemicals, fertilizer
9 $11,600 GDP per capita: South Africa 25% Unemployment Rate: South Africa
10 Type of Economy: Nigeria Mixed ; poorly organized = long period of military dictatorship & corruption. Currently: More private ownership allowed. Taking advantage of strong world oil market. 70% of workers focused on traditional activities (AGRICULTURE).
11 Nigeria Place on the continuum: Nigeria is on the market side of the continuum, but is more toward the command end than South Africa. Pure Command Pure Market
12 Goods Produced/Major Exports: Nigeria Oil - main export. Has attracted investment from other countries.
13 GDP per capita: Nigeria $2,800 Unemployment Rate: Nigeria 23.9%
14 How Does an Economy Grow? Factors that Influence Economic Growth Human Capital (education), Capital Goods (factories/machines), and Natural Resources. Another factor that influences growth is entrepreneurship, which includes ideas, innovation, and risk involved in starting a business.
15 Human Capital: South Africa BIG FOCUS - the country s most important industries need educated, skilled workers. Electronics industry requires workers with skills & training. Mining industry relies on workers with knowledge of the newest technology. Still have the highest unemployment rate in Africa. Most are black Africans still suffering from the effects of Apartheid.
16 Human Capital: Nigeria Has an educated population, but gov t corruption, civil war, & military rule have left country poor. 70% of the country s population lives on less than $1.00 per day. Once an agricultural country with plenty of crops, now has to import food in order to feed its population.
17 Relationship Between Human Capital and GDP
18 Capital Goods: South Africa Invests in equipment & technology to mine for gold, diamonds, & platinum. Invested in iron & steel production for assembling automobiles.
19 Capital Goods: Nigeria Bought new technology to compete in global oil market & left many Nigerians in EXTREME POVERTY!
20 Relationship Between Capital Goods and GDP
21 SOUTH AFRICA Natural Resources: Uranium 5.5 % of world s supply Radioactive element used to produce nuclear power plants & weapons.
22 SOUTH AFRICA Natural Resources: Gold 40% of world s gold-leads Africa in mining & selling of gold. A drop in price of gold worldwide would seriously affect economy.
23 SOUTH AFRICA Natural Resources: Diamonds 49% of world s supply Encouraged the growth of export trade. Dominated by DeBeer Company. Political stability is good for business, so diamond trade is well regulated. Uses profits to help the country & people.
24 Natural Resources: Oil 6 th largest oil producer in world O Member of OPEC NIGERIA O $ goes to corrupt politicians. Economy would greatly suffer if price of oil decreased!
25 Relationship Between Natural Resources and GDP
26 Entrepreneurs Many African nations ready for development & governments try to help these people.
27 Relationship Between Entrepreneurship and GDP
28 Essential Question How do the African economies of South Africa and Nigeria compare and contrast?
29 Trade Barriers
30 What are Trade Barriers? Anything that slows down or prevents one country from trading goods with another.
31 Why do countries put trade barriers in place? O To protect local industries from lower priced goods made in other countries. O To stop trade between countries with political problems.
32 What is a Tariff? O A tax placed on imported goods to make the imported item more expensive than a similar item made locally.
33 Example of a Tariff O If a country in Africa wanted to be sure only locally grown grain was purchased, the government might place a tariff on any grain imported from other countries. That tariff makes the imported grain more expensive than the locally grown grain. As a result, sales of imported grain would go down, and sales of locally grown grain would go up.
34 Why would a country in Africa place a protective tariff on imported goods? O In hopes that more people will buy products made locally and protect citizen jobs.
35 What is a Quota? O A limit on the amount of a product that can be imported in a given period or how much of a product can be produced.
36 Why would a country place a limit on imported goods? O In hopes that more people will buy products made locally and protect citizen jobs.
37 What is an Embargo? OWhen one country no longer trades with another country.
38 What goal is a country trying to achieve when they place an embargo on another country? O To isolate that country and cause problems with that country s economy.
39 Why did a number of countries of the United Nations have a weapons embargo on South Africa? O They wanted South Africa to end its system of Apartheid.
40 Let s Review Trade Barrier Scenarios Country A restricts the number of cars that may be imported each year from Country B.
41 Let s Review Trade Barrier Scenarios Country A imposes taxes on certain imported goods.
42 Let s Review Trade Barrier Scenarios A tax of 15% makes jewelry from South Africa more expensive than jewelry made in Nigeria.
43 Let s Review Trade Barrier Scenarios Japan may export only 15,000 automobiles a year to the United States.
44 Let s Review Trade Barrier Scenarios European nations announced they would no longer trade with the Republic of Sudan as a result of the genocide in Darfur.
45 Let s Review Trade Barrier Scenarios Which action could Country C take to help their domestic steel industry maintain jobs while keeping the price of steel high?
