| the principles of microeconomics: Principles of Microeconomics Martin Kolmar, 2017-09-11 This text provides a comprehensive and unique introduction to modern microeconomics. It pursues an integrative approach by putting the main findings of economics into a broader perspective; theories are critically reflected on from a philosophical standpoint and by comparing them to approaches found in the social sciences, while implications for the design of the legal system and business practices are highlighted throughout. In addition, the book presents brief examples and comprehensive case studies to facilitate an understanding of the theories’ real-world implications. Starting from the question as to why and how societies organize economic activity, the book adopts an institutional perspective to analyze the potential and limitations of different market types with regard to alleviating scarcity and achieving distributive objectives. It not only covers traditional rational-choice models, but also systematically introduces readers to important findings from behavioral economics and psychology. A companion workbook is available which features a wide variety of exercises, ranging from basic multiple-choice questions to challenging mathematical problems and case study scenarios. |

| the principles of microeconomics: Principles of Microeconomics Robert H. Frank, Ben Bernanke, 2020 Lthough many millions of dollars are spent each year on introductory economics instruction in American colleg-es and universities, the return on this investment has been disturbingly low. Studies have shown, for example, that several months after having taken a principles of economics course, former students are no better able to answer simple economics questions than others who never even took the course. Most students, it seems, leave our introductory courses without having learned even the most important basic economic principles-- |
| the principles of microeconomics: Principles of Microeconomics Mehmet Tosun, Pavel Yakovlev, Antony Davies, 2017-12-31 Principles of Microeconomics teaches microeconomic concepts and theories in a concise, clear manner.

| the principles of microeconomics: Murder at the Margin Marshall Jevons, 2024-05-14 Professor and amateur sleuth Henry Spearman uses economics to try to solve a murder while on a Caribbean vacation Cinnamon Bay seems like the ideal Caribbean getaway. But for Harvard economist and amateur detective Henry Spearman it offers an unexpected and decidedly different diversion: murder. With the police at a loss, Spearman investigates on his own, following a rather different set of laws—those of economics. Theorizing and hypothesizing, Spearman sets himself on the killer’s trail as it winds from the perfect beaches and manicured lawns of a resort to the bustling old port of Charlotte Amalie to the perilous hiking trails of a dense forest. Can Spearman crack the case using economics—and before it’s too late? |
| the principles of microeconomics: Microeconomics Austan Goolsbee, Steven Levitt, Chad Syverson, 2015-12-03 Like no other text for the intermediate microeconomics course, Goolsbee, Levitt, and Syverson’s Microeconomics bridges the gap between today’s theory and practice, with a strong empirical dimension that lets students tests theory and successfully apply it. With carefully crafted features and vivid examples, Goolsbee, Levitt, and Syverson’s text helps answer two critical questions students ask, Do people and firms really act as theory suggests? and How can someone use microeconomics in a practical way? The authors teach in economics departments and business schools and are active empirical microeconomics researchers. Their grounding in different areas of empirical research allows them to present the evidence developed in the last 20 years that has tested and refined fundamental theories. Their teaching and professional experiences are reflected in an outstanding presentation of theories and applications. |

| the principles of microeconomics: Applied Microeconomics David Debertin, 2012-06-18 This is a microeconomic theory book designed for upper-division undergraduate students in economics and agricultural economics. Basic introductory college courses in microeconomics and differential calculus are the assumed prerequisites. The last, tenth, chapter of the book reviews some mathematical principles basic to the other chapters. All of the chapters contain many numerical examples and graphs developed from the numerical examples. The ambitious student could recreate any of the charts and tables contained in the book using a computer and Excel spreadsheets. There are many numerical examples of the key elements of marginal analysis. In addition, many practical examples are taken from the real world to illustrate key points. Most of the examples used in the book come from the food and agricultural industries, broadly defined. Examples in consumer choice and utility focus on consumer decisions to purchase hamburgers and French fries. Production examples involve choices farmers make in order to apply fertilizer to crops. Market models are employed that illustrate consumer choice between beef, pork and chicken at the grocery meat counter, and so on. A few of the examples do not employ agriculturally related goods, such as the examples dealing with the fate of the Polaroid corporation and its instant cameras, monopoly power of cable television providers and competition between the big three automakers in the 1950s. Each chapter begins with material that will be familiar to nearly any student who has passed an introductory microeconomics course. However, as each chapter progresses, the problems and the math required to complete them get tougher. Critical points throughout the text are highlighted in text boxes. The instructor need not use all of the sections of each chapter for a course as each section of each chapter is self-contained. Each chapter concludes with a basic summary of key points and a comprehensive list of terms and definitions. Students might choose to begin by reading the key summary points and definitions at the end of each chapter. Each chapter also contains a spreadsheet exercise for students to create examples similar to the tables and charts in the text.The book is designed for use in a one-semester course, covering the parts of microeconomics that nearly every instructor believes should be covered at the intermediate level, but also recognizing that most instructors will want to devote a few weeks of the semester to material specific to their own interests.David L. Debertin |

| the principles of microeconomics: Macroeconomics Principles, Applications and Policy Implications Nurul Samiul Aman, 2018-12-31 Macroeconomics Principles, Applications and Policy Implications introduces students to foundational principles of modern economics with real-world applications. The text draws connections between key concepts and sports, music, entertainment, the housing market, the bond market, the stock market, the loanable funds market, and other related financial markets.

Later chapters introduce supply and demand models, criteria for determining market efficiency, key macroeconomic variables, Keynesian macroeconomics, and fiscal and monetary policy. Students learn about the policy implications for business cycle fluctuations, basic theories of monetary economics, and the current state of the budget deficit and public debt for the U.S. economy.

| the principles of microeconomics: Economics , 2015 Russell Cooper and Andrew John have written an economics text aimed directly at students from its very inception. You?re thinking, Yeah, sure. I?ve heard that before. This textbook, Economics: Theory Through Applications, centers around student needs and expectations through two premises:? Students are motivated to study economics if they see that it relates to their own lives.? Students learn best from an inductive approach, in which they are first confronted with a problem, and then led through the process of solving that problem. Many books claim to present economics in a way that is digestible for students; Russell and Andrew have truly created one from scratch. This textbook will assist you in increasing students? economic literacy both by developing their aptitude for economic thinking and by presenting key insights about economics that every educated individual should know. How? Russell and Andrew have done three things in this text to accomplish that goal: Applications Ahead of Theory: They present all the theory that is standard in Principles books. But by beginning with applications, students get to learn why this theory is needed. Learning through Repetition: Important tools appear over and over again, allowing students to learn from repetition and to see how one framework can be useful in many different contexts. A Student?s Table of Contents vs. An Instructor?s Table of Contents: There is no further proof that Russell and Andrew have created a book aimed specifically at educating students about economics than their two tables of contents. |

| the principles of microeconomics: Principles of Microeconomics Eugene Silberberg, 1999-08-01 For one semester courses in Introductory Microeconomics and for two semester courses in Principles of Economics. Principles of Microeconomics provides students with the rigor and high-level coverage of both theory and applications. The goal of this text is to show students how many important problems in the modern world can be easily explained with the aid of a few basic ideas. Particularly, the author uses substitution and diminishing marginal values (substitution theory) in consumer theory and comparative advantage and diminishing marginal product in production theory as the foundation of this text. Using this approach, the author shows why the law of demand implies that consumers will smooth consumption over time, why consumers' surplus exists and how it accounts for public financing of professional sports stadiums. In addition, students will see why comparative advantage implies low-wage countries will trade with high-wage countries. Principles of Microeconomics emphasizes the role of property rights in resource allocations. covering the Knight road congestion problem with a clear numerical example, as well as the Coase theorem and the problem of public goods. |
