Economic issue in which you have a special interest- Microeconomics
The objective of this assignment is to give you an opportunity to:
• Apply the analytical skills and intuition obtained in your economics courses to examine an economic issue in which you have a special interest; and
• Learn how to write a formal report.
1. Topic
You must submit a one-page paper carefully explaining the chosen topic. Make sure it pertains to microeconomic theory. Please start by writing one sentence (bold type) describing clearly the question or topic you want to analyze.
In this first part of the assignment, you should try to answer the following questions:
a. What am I trying to show?
b. Why should people care? Why is it interesting?
Be careful that your project is not too general/ambitious. Please narrow the topic to some specific aspect of a more general question. Remember that well-defined topics are easier to complete successfully. Be clear and concise. The more precise you are, the easier it will be to provide you with feedback.
