Factors of Production Activity Economics Google Slides or Printable Worksheet - Free Printable

Let’s go step by step to sort each item into the correct “Factor of Production” category.

There are four factors:
- Land: Natural resources — things that come from nature, like animals, minerals, water, trees.
- Labor: People working — any human effort used to make or deliver goods/services.
- Capital: Man-made tools, machines, buildings, vehicles used to produce other things (not money!).
- Entrepreneur: The person who starts a business, takes risks, and organizes the other factors to make something happen.

Now let’s look at each item:

1. Cattle → These are animals raised for food or products. They’re natural resources.
→ Land

2. Restaurant Owner → This person started the restaurant, took the risk, hired workers, bought supplies. That’s entrepreneurship.
→ Entrepreneur

3. Robot → A machine used in factories or businesses to do work. It’s man-made and helps production.
→ Capital

4. Delivery Truck → A vehicle used to move goods. Man-made tool for production/delivery.
→ Capital

5. Iron Ore → A raw mineral dug from the earth. Definitely a natural resource.
→ Land

6. Construction Worker → A person doing physical labor to build things. Human effort.
→ Labor

7. Factory Owner → Like the restaurant owner, this person owns and runs the factory — takes risks, makes decisions.
→ Entrepreneur

8. Delivery Person → Someone driving or walking to deliver packages. Human worker.
→ Labor

✔ Now we can group them correctly:

- Land: Cattle, Iron Ore
- Labor: Construction Worker, Delivery Person
- Capital: Robot, Delivery Truck
- Entrepreneur: Restaurant Owner, Factory Owner

Final Answer:
Land: Cattle, Iron Ore
Labor: Construction Worker, Delivery Person
Capital: Robot, Delivery Truck
Entrepreneur: Restaurant Owner, Factory Owner
