To solve this worksheet, we need to understand the difference between a
producer and a
consumer.
* A
producer is someone who makes goods or provides services. They create things that other people can buy or use.
* A
consumer is someone who buys or uses goods and services. They are the ones purchasing or eating what producers make.
Let’s go through each sentence:
1.
A farmer is a ___ .
→ Farmers grow crops or raise animals — they produce food and other agricultural products. So, a farmer is a
producer.
2.
A girl buying a doll is a ___ .
→ She is purchasing something (a doll) that someone else made. That makes her a
consumer.
3.
A chef is a ___ .
→ Chefs prepare meals — they provide a service (cooking). Even though they don’t “make” raw ingredients, they transform them into finished dishes for customers. In economics, service providers like chefs are considered
producers.
4.

→ Dentists provide dental care — a service. People pay them for their work. So, dentists are
producers of services.
5.
A man buying a cake is a ___ .
