Introductory Micreconomics Help!!!

1. Pick an event. Read up online on something that sounds interesting or counter-intuitive (it doesn't have to be, it can be completely ordinary, like gold prices increasing, or whatever, but y'know, doing an interesting topic will probably be more exciting than something straightforward, and there's more to write about too).
2. Use that article as a starting point to discuss why the event occurred. e.g. The US Government prevented Microsoft from merging with Company X because it would have generated too much market power in the computer market (I recommend not copying this one, because it's an example in the textbook. You get my point though, right?). Use supply-demand curves wherever applicable (maybe not in the Microsoft example, but if you're analysing something that can be expressed using these curves, go for it!).
3. Submit on Monday, wait for your 30/30

thank you!

have you guys used any graphs for question part a?

For most of the questions I drew a graph to better illustrate my answer

[Deleted User]

Yes but not for Part B.

I had graphs for most of the questions, just to stay on the safe side. It really depends on what case study you decided on. Some of them are more difficult to relate to graphs than others.

But yeah, when in doubt, draw a graph. I mean, as long as you're within the word limit, and your graphs are relevant to the question, they can't penalize you for providing too much information, can they?

Yes but not for Part B.

what topic did you do for part B? most people i know had graphs in part B but not many (if any) in part A

Anyone know the average for the second assignment?

[aaackk]

heard ~21 from one my friends tutes, not sure about overall average though

[HighLatency]

had a 25 average in mine,
safe to say I was below average

I was one the higher scorers in my tute with 23... I think my tute is a really harsh marker then.
