Choose those characteristics that best describe a command system.

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

Question asks which characteristics best describe a command system. 
Option 1: 'Firms produce according to the demands of consumers.' In a command (centrally planned) economy, production is guided by a central plan, not by consumer demand. This makes this statement incorrect as a defining feature of a command system.
Option 2: 'The division of output between capital and consumer goods is decided by market forces.' Market forces determine allocations in a market economy, not in a command system. Therefore this option is inaccurate for describing a command system.
Option 3: 'The government owns most property resources.' While many command economies feature extensive government ownership, this statement emphasizes ownership rather than the core mechanism of decision-making. A command system is more characteristically defined by centralized planning and directive decisions than by ownership alone, so this alone does not best describe the system.
Option 4: 'A central planning board makes all economic decisions concerning resources.' This option captures the defining mechanism of a command system: centralized planning and top-down allocation of resources by a planning authority, which is the hallmark distinguishing it from market-driven systems.
