Understanding Variables in Economics
Variables in economics, such as dependent, independent, endogenous, and exogenous variables, play a crucial role in analyzing economic phenomena. Dependent variables are influenced by changes in other variables, while independent variables are not. Endogenous variables are internal and need to be pr
