ECON 545 Business Economics - DeVry

 

Week 2: Marginal Analysis Course Project Part 1
Overview: Project Part 1 (PP1) consists of performing application-oriented exercises wherein the specific economic principles learned in this course are put to practical use. You must translate your ideas into economic analysis using the specific economic theory and economic terms contained in the TCOs covered in the course and demonstrate that you are understanding and utilizing material from text chapters covered up to this point in the course to receive full credit on the assignment.
You are being asked to submit a report containing responses to three exercises. Exercise 1 entails a choice of one topical microeconomic issue out of two possible alternatives. Exercises 2 and 3 entail a choice of two textbook questions out of a list of possible alternatives. 
Exercise 1 - Choose one of the following two microeconomic issues:
1. EveryoneÂ’s Gasoline Problem. We are all familiar with fluctuating prices of gasoline at the pump. Why does this happen? Research the recent history of gasoline pricing in your area, and attempt to relate any fluctuations you observe to documented supply and demand factors outlined in our book. Be sure to cite any references used. 
2. Ethical Issues in Business. It seems that every day lately we are confronted with another company that has acted at least unethically and possibly illegally in the operation and financial reporting of their companyÂ’s business dealings. Briefly discuss one of these issues and then see if you can relate the issue to ANY of our TCOs. That is, are there any effects on demand or on supply related to this topic? How would you expect this to affect the equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity for this companyÂ’s products and services? Is the elasticity of demand or supply affected? What about the effect on production levels and costs? Are ethical issues more likely to occur in one market type rather than another market type? You donÂ’t have to cover all of these topics; IÂ’ve just suggested some possible connections to our TCOs. Any connection to our TCOs is fine here. 
Exercises 2 and 3 - Select any two of the following questions from the text:
• Chapter 3, Question 14
• Chapter 3, Question 15
• Chapter 5, Question 17
• Chapter 5, Question 18
• Chapter 7, Question 15
