• Find a news article on the Internet of a shift in supply or demand. The article must be recent (within the last six months), and MUST NOT be from an encyclopedia or reference website that discusses demand and supply. DO NOT use blogs.
• The best articles are about changes in the price and/or sales of a particular product. You then have the opportunity to demonstrate your understanding of supply and demand shifts as you explain the changes in price and quantity experienced by the product you choose. RECOMMENDATION: READ THE SAMPLE PROJECT: Under the Start Here link.
• Summarize the article. (Do not quote the article, but explain it as if you were telling someone about it. If you do use direct quotes, remember that a citation is required.)
• Explain which graph in our collection - A, B, C, or D - illustrates the shift that you identify by describing the change in price and the change in equilibrium quantity.
• Do use paragraphs in your post. And do remain focused on what is in the article.
• Provide a full URL link to the article along with an APA-formatted reference to the article at the bottom of your submission.
• Important: This is a Microeconomic course. Do not choose an article discussing Macroeconomic issues: Inflation, unemployment, trade deficit, government budget deficit, etc.
