The question that is NOT one of the three basic questions of economic activity is "How will goods be transported to markets?" The three fundamental questions that economies address are:

  1. What will be produced?
  2. How will it be produced?
  3. How will it be distributed?

Transportation is an important aspect of the distribution process but is not one of the core questions that define economic activity.
