Description: This course studies how changes in prices and incomes Saffect consumers' purchasing decisions; how firms make production, investment, and pricing decisions; how these decisions affect prices and trade volumes in markets. We will develop the theoretical tools needed to analyze these problems. Microeconomics analysis relies on a small set of enormously powerful analytical tools: constrained optimization analysis, equilibrium analysis, and comparative static analysis. This course attempts to help you master these tools by presenting their graphical, algebraic and logical mechanics as well as by illustrating their use in many different contexts throughout the course.
