ECON 545 Week 1 | Case Study 1: Choices, Trade-Off, and Economic Systems
Overview Every time we choose to do something (consume it or produce it), we give up doing or gaining something else that could give us a certain level of benefit or satisfaction. Choices exist because of our limited (scarce) resources. Even if you were the richest person in the United States, you still cannot do more than one thing at a time. For example, you cannot watch a movie and sleep at the same time, and you cannot fish and bike at the same time. When we make choices, we usually weigh se..

ECON 545 Week 1 | DQ: Economic Thinking And Economic Systems
Week 1: Discussion Question Have you ever wondered why people act the way they do on Black Friday or on the 4th of July? Or why wealthy people and nations have less children than poorer ones?

ECON 545 Week 3 | DQ: Market Structure And Profit Maximization
Week 3: Discussion Question Most firms and businesses in our economy operate under monopolistic competition, and product differentiation in this market type is one of the main factors that lead to price differentiation. In addition, and because prices affect quantity demanded inversely (higher prices lead to lower quantity demanded, and lower prices lead to higher quantity demanded), marginal revenue (the additional revenue obtained from producing and selling an additional unit of output) wil..

ECON 545 Week 5 | DQ: Unemployment
Week 5: Discussion Question Unemployment is an indication of the health of the economy. Unemployment means that there is a portion of the productive population (labor force) that is not producing and unable to earn income for consumption and/or for investment. The more unemployed workers there are, the less output the economy will be able to produce. High unemployment also means that there are less wages available in the hands of people to consume, which reduces the incentive or need ..

ECON 545 Week 6 | DQ: Monetary and Fiscal Policies
Week 6: Discussion Question An economy is assumed to be operating at full capacity when its real GDP (what the economy produces) equals its potential GDP (what the economy would produce if all factors of production are used). When the economy is producing at full potential, everyone who wants to work can find a job, because every worker who enters the workforce will produce what he or she will eventually consume with the income. In addition, and when the economy is producing at full capacity,..

ECON 545 Week 7 | DQ: International Trade and Exchange Rates
Week 7: Discussion Question Do I really need a mechanic? Technically I can learn how to fix cars when my car breaks down, right? But is it efficient to do so? Maybe yes or maybe no! As we discussed in microeconomics, people are utility maximizers (always seek to gain the most possible outcome while giving up the less resources), people are rational in their choices (choose the best option available), and people are self-interested (choose what gives them the ultimate satisfaction). These conc..
