Major Economics principles

opportunity cost concept

Before we get into any marginal principle examples, opportunity cost is one of the most basic economic concepts on the map. It’s something we understand without ever even thinking about it. Basically, the world has unlimited wants but very limited means, so there’s always a choice that has to be made. We give up one thing to have another but must calculate the value and cost to find which option will be most fruitful. Take this example:
The world has a limited beef supply. There’s only so much cattle that farmers can raise in any given year, but where that beef goes is totally up in the air. It can be turned into ground beef and mass-marketed in supermarkets. It can be put in Slim Jims and other beef jerky products.
It can be transformed into beef broth and canned for Campbell's or sent to a local butcher. Only so many of those products can be made because there’s only so much beef, so how do you decide how much of it gets made into beef jerky verses transformed into broth? A market system (see: supply and demand) is a simple answer.

marginal principle concept

In short, the marginal principle definition is very basic and what we deal with every single day when running a business. You increase the level of an activity as long as its marginal benefit exceeds its marginal cost. In other words, it wouldn't be a very wise business decision to spend more money than you're taking in if you don't have an overarching plan for profitability. You might spend three years in the hole with startup costs and rely heavily on investors, but no one's going to be willing to invest if they don't see a pathway to turning a profit. Here's a very basic marginal principle example:
Say you run a doughnut shop. The flour, sugar, eggs and butter you put into the doughnuts cost around $.10 per doughnut. You sell each doughnut for $1.50. That's a huge profit, so it might seem like the marginal benefits do outweigh the costs.

Very high tax, we are living in an economy of it's own characteristics...soon if no change, brain drain shall become the Rythmn of the season.

The increased inflation in Kenya today, which is termed as demand push inflation is a clear mirror of nature of unfriendly economy which awaits this very deserving nation .....demand for fuel has gone higher and higher in every progressive day....

Economical experts needs to observe principle of objectivity and independence at this time..very important!

NAIROBI, Dec 23 (Reuters) - Kenya aims to replace a nominal public debt ceiling with a debt anchor as a percentage of gross domestic product by the end of June 2022, Finance Minister Ukur Yatani has said.
The debt ceiling is set at 9 trillion Kenyan shillings ($80 billion) at present, the finance ministry said.
"The new framework would be centered on... a medium-term

debt anchor set at 55 percent of GDP with debt measured in present value terms," Yatani said in a Dec. 2 letter to the International Monetary Fund, which the fund made public on Wednesday.

In June this year, total debt stood at 70% of GDP.
The letter did not set a timeframe for when the debt level will be brought to 55% of GDP.
The IMF also said the government had dropped plans to nationalise flag carrier Kenya Airways.
"The authorities do not intend to nationalise the carrier and are considering appropriate mechanisms to protect the Exchequer’s financial interests during the restructuring process," it said.

The government has a 48.9% stake in the airline.
In his letter, Yatani said the government would take over $827 million of Kenya Airways' debt.
It will also give the airline $473 million in direct budget support in the fiscal year that ends in June 2022 as well as the subsequent one, Yatani said.
In addition to the cash injection, Kenya Airways, also known by its abbreviation KQ, will have to undertake other measures to turn around its operations, Yatani said.

"KQ will be required to trim down its network, rationalise
frequencies of flights, operate a smaller fleet, and rationalise its staff complement," he said.
Like other airlines, Kenya Airways has seen its passenger business severely hurt by travel restrictions imposed by governments....

Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered his military command to put nuclear-armed forces on high alert on Sunday as Ukrainian fighters defending the city of Kharkiv said they had repelled an attack by invading Russian troops.

Kenya’s overall public debt increased from 48.6% of GDP at the end of 2015 to an estimated 69% of GDP at the end of 2020[1]. As of September 2020, Kenya's external public debt was 51.4% of its total debt stock of 7.1 trillion Kenya Shillings[2].The International Monetary Fund recommends that ratios of public debt to GDP not exceeding 40% for developing countries[3]. The ballooning public debt has been partly driven by large spending on infrastructure projects and by the COVID-19 global shock in 2020. External debt is not necessarily harmful for an economy. Studies show that external debt inflows can stabilise the economy and boost economic growth. However, interest and principal repayments on external debt are made in foreign currency. This depletes a country’s foreign exchange reserves and may depreciate the domestic currency. The relatively high level of Kenya’s external indebtedness and rising debt burden has serious implications on the country’s development and debt sustainability initiatives. This is because several risks are associated with high debt levels: higher taxation, depreciation of local currency, increased cost of further borrowing, high cost of debt servicing, and crowding out of private sector.

Kenya government has proposed a number of debt management strategies. The public debt management objectives as outlined in Section 62(3) of the Public Finance Management Act (PFM), 2012[4] consist of: (a) minimizing the cost of public debt management and borrowing over the long-term taking risks into account; (b) promoting the development of the market institutions for Government debt securities; and (c) ensuring the sharing of the benefits and costs of public debt between the current and future generations. There is need for Kenya government to further adopt mix of borrowing instruments that is aligned to the 2021 Medium Term Development Strategies objectives. Specifically, (a) consider treas

ECONOMIC GROWTH AND TRADE



Power Africa is supporting the Government of Kenya’s vision to increase the supply of and access to reliable, affordable, and sustainable electricity for economic growth.

OVERVIEW

Until the COVID-19 pandemic, Kenya was one of the fastest growing economies in Africa, with an annual average growth of 5.9% between 2010 and 2018. With a GDP of $95 billion, Kenya recently reached lower-middle income status, and has successfully established a diverse and dynamic economy. It also serves as the point of entry to the larger, 300 million East African market.However, Kenya continues to face significant challenges to sustainable and inclusive economic growth, which have been exacerbated by COVID-19’s economic disruptions, alongside long-running challenges including corruption and economic inequality. Two-thirds of the Kenyan population lives in poverty below $3.20 per day and have since independence. As a result, the majority of Kenyans, particularly women and girls, can be considered chronically vulnerable. There is a persistently large gap between the rich and poor, with approximately 70 percent of Kenyan families chronically vulnerable due to poor nutrition, food insecurity, and preventable diseases spanning generations. Many Kenyans suffer from economic inequality while a minority elite continues to capture and exploit their labor, resources, and opportunities.

USAID partners with the Government of Kenya, the private sector and the Kenyan people to advance economic prosperity for all. Our vision is that every Kenyan can benefit from Kenya’s development, can grow their business, feed their family, and contribute to Kenya’s future. To do this, we work through Kenyan and U.S. private organizations to implement development projects jointly designed with Kenyans. These organizations partner directly with Kenyan private sector, communities, and county and national governments to promote a level playing field so businesses a
