4ECON 545 Week 1 DQ 1 Supply and Demand
- What is the difference between a change in demand
versus a change in quantity demanded? A change in
supply versus a change in quantity supplied? Why
is it so important to differentiate between these
similar-sounding terms?

Wage

outcomes?
6ECON 545 Week 2 DQ 1 Marginal Analysis

find the right production level which guarantees
maximum profit (or minimum loss)?
7ECON 545 Week 2 DQ 2 Controlling Costs
- Name some of the ways firms attempt to control
their costs. How does your firm control costs?
The key here in keeping this question interesting
is that reducing the workforce or having one
person do the work of three people are not the
only ways to control costs. I'm looking for more
creative ways. Maybe you can think of some that
your firm is not currently using. Be creative
here.

10ECON 545 Week 3 DQ 2 Antitrust Policy
- Review and chose a firm of your choice provided
by your instructor. Is this firm a monopoly? In
what ways could it be considered a monopoly? What
markets are involved? What anti-trust legislation
would apply? Is anti-trust legislation "fair" to
your chosen firm? Why or why not?
11ECON 545 Week 4 DQ 1 Current Topic in
Macroeconomics
- Scour the national media for a credible
macroeconomic current issue (many good sources
are available online) in which Chapters 19-21 is
at the heart of the matter. Summarize your

to the textbook sections that apply to your
