Factor Market
A factor market is a market where firms buy the factors of production (land, labor, capital, entrepreneurship) from households.
In a factor market, firms demand the inputs they need for production, while households supply these factors in exchange for payments (wages, interest, rent, profit). The interaction of demand and supply determines the price and quantity of each factor.
