Summary

Microeconomics is the study of how people and businesses make decisions about how to use limited resources. Students learn how to apply mathematical methods to understand these decisions.

Course Information

Course details include the schedule, professors' contact information, and office hours. Students find out about the course structure and how to get help.

Course Content

Topics covered include perfect competition, monopolistic competition, oligopolies, and game theory. Students learn to compare different market structures and their societal impacts.

Tutorial Questions

Questions ask students to calculate long-run output, price, and societal gains in competitive and monopolistic industries. Students apply theoretical concepts to practical scenarios.

Production Possibilities

Students explore production possibilities frontiers (PPF) and how they illustrate opportunity costs. They learn to analyze the shape and slope of PPFs to understand increasing costs.

Key terms

Monopolistic competition
A market structure where many firms sell products that are similar but not identical.
Oligopoly
A market structure where a few firms dominate the industry.
Game theory
A mathematical approach to understanding strategic decision-making.
Production possibilities frontier
A graph showing the maximum possible output combinations of two goods.
Long-run average cost
The cost per unit of output when all inputs are variable.
Gain to society
The net benefit to society from the production of a good.

Questions this document helps with

  • How do different market structures affect pricing and output?
  • What is the role of game theory in oligopolistic industries?
  • How do production possibilities frontiers illustrate opportunity costs?
