This chapter discusses competitive markets and the effects of government policies like import quotas, tariffs, taxes, and subsidies. It introduces import quotas and tariffs as limits or taxes on imported quantities and shows how they increase domestic prices and result in deadweight losses. The chapter then analyzes how the burden of a specific tax is split between buyers and sellers depending on the elasticities of supply and demand. It similarly examines how the benefits of a subsidy are distributed. Specific examples are provided, such as the effects of a US sugar quota and a tax on gasoline.
The document discusses key concepts in production economics and firm behavior. It covers definitions of a firm, production functions, costs of production including total, average and marginal costs. Perfect competition is defined as an industry with many small firms, identical products and free entry and exit. Firms in perfect competition are price takers and maximize profits by producing where marginal revenue equals marginal cost. The law of diminishing marginal returns and different production technologies using varying inputs are also explained.
The document discusses theories of production, including:
1. It defines production function and outlines concepts like inputs, outputs, fixed vs variable inputs, and short vs long run.
2. It summarizes the law of variable proportions and returns to scale, and how they relate to costs via concepts like economies and diseconomies of scale.
3. It provides an overview of oligopoly market structure and models for price and output determination under conditions like collusion, price leadership, and kinked demand curves.
This document provides an overview of key macroeconomic statistics including Gross Domestic Product (GDP), the Consumer Price Index (CPI), and the unemployment rate. It discusses how GDP can be measured through expenditures, income, and value added. The components of GDP expenditures are defined as consumption, investment, government spending, and net exports. Real GDP is introduced to control for inflation. The GDP deflator and inflation rates are also explained.
This document discusses key concepts in production economics including the four basic categories of inputs (labor, capital, land, materials), production functions, fixed vs variable inputs, short run vs long run, marginal product of labor, total product of labor, average product of labor, and the law of diminishing marginal returns. It also explains isoquants and how they relate to different types of production functions including Cobb-Douglas, perfect complements, and perfect substitutes. Key terms discussed are marginal rate of technical substitution and how technological change and productivity can affect production functions.
This document provides an overview of production processes and profit-maximizing behavior of firms. It discusses key concepts including the production function, total product, marginal product, average product, choice of technology, isoquants, isocosts, and how firms determine their cost-minimizing production method. The document also distinguishes between short-run and long-run decisions and explains how firms make output, technology, and input demand decisions to maximize profits.
The document discusses production functions and laws of production. It explains that production involves transforming inputs like labor (L) and capital (K) into output (Q) according to the function Q=f(L,K). In the short run, one input is variable while the other is fixed, while in the long run both inputs are variable.
The law of variable proportions describes how total product increases at an increasing rate initially as more of the variable input is added with the fixed input held constant, then increases at a diminishing rate, and eventually decreases as diminishing returns set in. The law of returns to scale examines how output changes as a firm varies all inputs proportionately. Firms experience increasing, constant, and
This document discusses productivity, how it is measured, why it is important, and trends in Canada over recent decades. Productivity is a measure of economic output per unit of input, usually measured as GDP per hour worked. It is important because higher productivity leads to higher standards of living and competitiveness. While Canada saw strong productivity growth from 1961-1975, its growth has slowed since then, averaging 1.4% annually from 1982-1991. This weaker growth has contributed to Canada losing some competitive advantage internationally in recent years. However, some industries and sectors have maintained stronger productivity, and recent signs suggest productivity may be improving again.

Vicinity Jobs’ data includes more than three million 2023 OJPs and thousands of skills. Most skills appear in less than 0.02% of job postings, so most postings rely on a small subset of commonly used terms, like teamwork.
Laura Adkins-Hackett, Economist, LMIC, and Sukriti Trehan, Data Scientist, LMIC, presented their research exploring trends in the skills listed in OJPs to develop a deeper understanding of in-demand skills. This research project uses pointwise mutual information and other methods to extract more information about common skills from the relationships between skills, occupations and regions.
In a tight labour market, job-seekers gain bargaining power and leverage it into greater job quality—at least, that’s the conventional wisdom.
Michael, LMIC Economist, presented findings that reveal a weakened relationship between labour market tightness and job quality indicators following the pandemic. Labour market tightness coincided with growth in real wages for only a portion of workers: those in low-wage jobs requiring little education. Several factors—including labour market composition, worker and employer behaviour, and labour market practices—have contributed to the absence of worker benefits. These will be investigated further in future work.
Confirmation of Payee (CoP) is a vital security measure adopted by financial institutions and payment service providers. Its core purpose is to confirm that the recipient’s name matches the information provided by the sender during a banking transaction, ensuring that funds are transferred to the correct payment account.
Confirmation of Payee was built to tackle the increasing numbers of APP Fraud and in the landscape of UK banking, the spectre of APP fraud looms large. In 2022, over £1.2 billion was stolen by fraudsters through authorised and unauthorised fraud, equivalent to more than £2,300 every minute. This statistic emphasises the urgent need for robust security measures like CoP. While over £1.2 billion was stolen through fraud in 2022, there was an eight per cent reduction compared to 2021 which highlights the positive outcomes obtained from the implementation of Confirmation of Payee. The number of fraud cases across the UK also decreased by four per cent to nearly three million cases during the same period; latest statistics from UK Finance.
In essence, Confirmation of Payee plays a pivotal role in digital banking, guaranteeing the flawless execution of banking transactions. It stands as a guardian against fraud and misallocation, demonstrating the commitment of financial institutions to safeguard their clients’ assets.

Fabular Frames and the Four Ratio ProblemMajid Iqbal
Digital, interactive art showing the struggle of a society in providing for its present population while also saving planetary resources for future generations. Spread across several frames, the art is actually the rendering of real and speculative data. The stereographic projections change shape in response to prompts and provocations. Visitors interact with the model through speculative statements about how to increase savings across communities, regions, ecosystems and environments. Their fabulations combined with random noise, i.e. factors beyond control, have a dramatic effect on the societal transition. Things get better. Things get worse. The aim is to give visitors a new grasp and feel of the ongoing struggles in democracies around the world.
Stunning art in the small multiples format brings out the spatiotemporal nature of societal transitions, against backdrop issues such as energy, housing, waste, farmland and forest. In each frame we see hopeful and frightful interplays between spending and saving. Problems emerge when one of the two parts of the existential anaglyph rapidly shrinks like Arctic ice, as factors cross thresholds. Ecological wealth and intergenerational equity areFour at stake. Not enough spending could mean economic stress, social unrest and political conflict. Not enough saving and there will be climate breakdown and ‘bankruptcy’. So where does speculative design start and the gambling and betting end? Behind each fabular frame is a four ratio problem. Each ratio reflects the level of sacrifice and self-restraint a society is willing to accept, against promises of prosperity and freedom. Some values seem to stabilise a frame while others cause collapse. Get the ratios right and we can have it all. Get them wrong and things get more desperate.

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.
OJP data from firms like Vicinity Jobs have emerged as a complement to traditional sources of labour demand data, such as the Job Vacancy and Wages Survey (JVWS). Ibrahim Abuallail, PhD Candidate, University of Ottawa, presented research relating to bias in OJPs and a proposed approach to effectively adjust OJP data to complement existing official data (such as from the JVWS) and improve the measurement of labour demand.
