This document discusses key concepts in economics including scarcity, choice, costs and benefits, and using an economic approach to decision-making. It provides examples of how these concepts can be applied, such as considering the costs and benefits of different class sizes or whether to purchase a product in town versus online. The document also outlines common pitfalls to avoid in decision-making and contrasts microeconomics with macroeconomics.
This document provides an introduction to managerial economics. It begins by listing recommended reading materials and then outlines the session objectives, which are to discuss key economic concepts like rational decision making, incentives, and marginal analysis. It then presents a case study on the expansion of the Disney Corporation under Michael Eisner and how managerial economics informed strategies like advertising, pricing, and executive compensation. Another case examines Toyota's production and pricing decisions around the hybrid Prius. The document concludes by defining managerial economics and outlining four key principles of rational decision making: people face tradeoffs, opportunity cost is the relevant cost, people think at the margin, and people respond to incentives.
This document provides an introduction to economics. It defines economics as the study of how individuals and societies choose to use scarce resources. It discusses the key economic questions of what, how, and who and introduces some core economic concepts. These include positive versus normative analysis, incentives, marginal analysis, and economic models. The document also previews how microeconomics and macroeconomics are used to understand markets, business decisions, policies, growth and fluctuations. Examples are provided around traffic congestion and hybrid vehicles to illustrate economic concepts.
This document provides an introduction to principles of economics. It begins by posing questions to assess the reader's knowledge of current economic data. It then defines key economic concepts like scarcity, opportunity cost, and tradeoffs using examples of household and business decision making. Microeconomics is introduced as the study of individual agents, while macroeconomics looks at aggregate outcomes. Positive economics aims to objectively describe and predict economic systems, whereas normative economics judges whether outcomes are good or bad. Three key economic principles are outlined: people face tradeoffs, opportunity cost helps determine the best choice, and people respond to incentives. Diagrams are provided to illustrate production possibility frontiers and opportunity costs.
This document outlines ten principles of economics according to N. Gregory Mankiw. It discusses how people make decisions by facing tradeoffs and considering opportunity costs. Rational people make decisions at the margin by weighing marginal costs against marginal benefits. Markets are generally an efficient way to organize economic activity as decentralized decisions lead to beneficial outcomes through the invisible hand of supply and demand.
This chapter discusses various special pricing practices used by managers, including cost-plus pricing, price discrimination, nonmarginal pricing, and multiproduct pricing. It provides examples of how cost-plus pricing determines prices as a markup over costs and how price discrimination separates customers to charge different prices. The chapter also examines ways firms practice first, second, and third-degree price discrimination and considers the conditions needed for profitable price discrimination. Finally, it addresses pricing for multiple products and how their joint costs and demands must be considered.
This document provides an overview of microeconomics. It defines economics, explores the basic economic problem of scarcity, discusses key microeconomic concepts like opportunity cost, production possibility frontier, and the three basic economic questions. It also distinguishes between microeconomics and macroeconomics, and different economic systems including free markets, planned economies, and mixed economies.
This document outlines 10 principles of economics from the textbook "Principles of Economics" by N. Gregory Mankiw. It discusses fundamental lessons about individual decision making, interactions among people, and the economy as a whole. Specifically, it summarizes that people face trade-offs and respond to incentives; markets are generally good but governments can remedy failures; productivity drives living standards; and inflation results from increasing the money supply, creating short-run trade-offs with unemployment.
This document outlines key concepts from an economics textbook chapter, including:
- Economics addresses how societies manage scarce resources.
- Scarcity and opportunity costs are fundamental concepts.
- Rational people systematically evaluate costs and benefits of decisions at the margin.
- Trade can make all parties better off through specialization and exchange.
- Markets generally organize economic activity well through prices reflecting supply and demand.
- Governments sometimes improve outcomes by addressing market failures or pursuing equity.

- Common pitfalls include ignoring opportunity costs, failing to ignore sunk costs, and misunderstanding average vs marginal costs and benefits.
- Microeconomics examines individual and firm choices while macroeconomics analyzes national economies.
- The textbook aims to increase understanding of economic processes like scarcity and efficiency.
This document outlines ten principles of economics from an economics textbook. It discusses the principles in three categories: how people make decisions, how people interact, and how the overall economy works. Some of the key principles covered are that people face tradeoffs, the cost of something is what you give up to get it, markets are generally a good way to organize economic activity, and a country's standard of living depends on its productivity.
This document provides an overview of the foundations of economics. It discusses 5 key foundations:
1) Incentives matter - People respond to incentives, both positive and negative. Unintended consequences can arise from incentive structures.
2) Life involves trade-offs - Scarcity requires choices that incur opportunity costs. Governments and individuals face policy and personal trade-offs.
3) Opportunity cost is the highest valued alternative forgone. Marginal thinking evaluates costs and benefits of additional units of goods or activities.
4) Trade can create value when parties voluntarily exchange based on comparative advantage. Specialization and trade allow gains from specialization.
5) Economics involves both micro topics like individual decisions and
This document provides an outline and learning objectives for a chapter in an economics textbook. It introduces three key concepts in economics: that people are rational, respond to incentives, and make optimal decisions at the margin. It discusses how economies answer questions about what to produce, how to produce it, and who receives goods and services. It also introduces economic models and the differences between microeconomics and macroeconomics.
This chapter introduces some of the key principles of economics. It discusses that economics addresses questions about how societies manage scarce resources. It explores four main principles: how people make decisions, how people interact, how markets usually provide a good way to organize economic activity, and how governments can sometimes improve market outcomes. The chapter provides examples and discussion of opportunity costs, incentives, trade, and the role of prices in allocating resources. It also addresses how a country's standard of living depends on its ability to produce goods and services.
This chapter introduces the key principles of economics. It discusses that economics addresses how societies manage scarce resources through decisions made by individuals and firms. The chapter outlines the principles of how people make decisions, how people interact through markets and trade, and how the overall economy functions. The principles covered are: people face tradeoffs; opportunity cost is the relevant cost; rational people think at the margin; people respond to incentives; trade can make all parties better off; markets are generally efficient but governments can address market failures; productivity drives living standards; inflation is caused by too much money printing; and societies face a short-run tradeoff between inflation and unemployment.
This document provides an overview of key concepts in benefit-cost analysis and marginal analysis. It discusses how scarcity forces individuals and societies to make choices that involve opportunity costs. It also explains how rational individuals and businesses use marginal analysis to maximize benefits and minimize costs, making choices based on whether marginal benefits exceed marginal costs. The document provides examples to illustrate concepts like opportunity cost and marginal analysis.
The document discusses the concept of opportunity cost through examples. It defines opportunity cost as the cost of the next best alternative forgone when choosing between two mutually exclusive options. The first example given is that the opportunity cost of going to university is the earnings forgone from work. The second example is that a gardener's opportunity cost of growing carrots is the alternative crops that could have been grown instead.
The document discusses how organizations can become more sustainable and efficient through green initiatives. It outlines client goals around becoming greener and making financial gains. Key topics around sustainability like emissions reductions and renewable energy sources are also mentioned. The document provides advice on analyzing energy usage and purchasing efficient technologies to reduce costs and carbon footprints. Case studies show how converting to electric forklifts and efficient chargers saved money while lowering emissions. It promotes analyzing operations and taking advantage of utility rebates to drive efficiency gains.

This document summarizes 10 key principles of economics from a textbook. It discusses principles related to how individuals make decisions, how people interact in markets, and how the overall economy works. The principles include: people face tradeoffs; costs are what you give up; rational people think at the margin; people respond to incentives; trade can make all parties better off; markets are usually a good way to organize activity; governments can improve market outcomes; a country's standard of living depends on productivity; and inflation reduces purchasing power over time. The document uses examples and diagrams to explain each principle in 2-4 paragraphs.
The document discusses marginal costs and benefits and how they can be used for decision making. It defines marginal benefit as the change in total benefit from an action and marginal cost as the change in total cost from an action. It states that people are better off doing more of an activity as long as the marginal benefit exceeds the marginal cost, and better off doing less of it when the marginal cost exceeds the marginal benefit. An example compares the marginal benefit of exercise to the marginal cost of reduced study time.
