Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The paradox is
"What is logical at the micro level may not be logical at macro level".
For example, if a farner produce more potatoes when there is excess demand for potatoes, it will add to his properity. But, if all the farmers in an aconomy produce more potatoes, the aggregate supply will increase causing the prices and the profits to fall. Consequently, the economy will be driven towards falling income level rather than properity.
