Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -One of the defining features of economics is scarcity, which deals with how people satisfy unlimited wants and needs with limited resources. Scarcity affects the monetary value people place on goods and services and how governments and private firms decide to distribute resources.

Detailed explanation-2: -The resources that we value-time, money, labor, tools, land, and raw materials-exist in limited supply. There are simply never enough resources to meet all our needs and desires. This condition is known as scarcity.

Detailed explanation-3: -Economics is the study of how individuals and societies choose to allocate scarce resources, why they choose to allocate them that way, and the consequences of those decisions. Scarcity is sometimes considered the basic problem of economics.

Detailed explanation-4: -The ability to make decisions comes with a limited capacity. The scarcity state depletes this finite capacity of decision-making. Lack of time or the money scarce, either of the two produces anxiety that ends in a poor decision.
