From the syllabus: �In approximately 5 pages, you will describe a historical or contempo- rary example of an auction, how it is conducted, and how it relates to the theoretical models and concepts that we have studied in class.� Here is some additional information.
Topic
Some of the goods sold at auction include stamps, timber, fish, flowers, cars, art and wine, radio spectrum licenses, and abandoned storage units. They are used for procurement (these are sometimes called �reverse auctions�), for entertainment (Swoopo is one example of these �penny auctions�), and in takeovers of companies.
You may write about one of the auctions mentioned here, if you wish, but you are also encouraged to seek different topics and additional sources. I hope to read about a variety of auction applications when I read your papers � perhaps some that I have not heard of before.
Two warnings on topic selection:
1. I recommend against choosing eBay auctions your project topic. I would prefer for you to learn about a different auction application, so that you can expand the range of your knowledge about auctions. If you want to write about eBay, you will have to investigate beyond the basic questions listed in the next section � feel free to consult with me if you have in mind a specific research topic.
2. If you choose as your topic a slave auction, you must take extra care to write with sensitivity, demonstrating to the reader that you comprehend the moral as well as the economic dimensions of such an event.
Content
Here are some questions that can help guide you as you learn about your chosen topic. Don�t let the length of this list intimidate you! It is meant to help you get started in your thinking and researching. You do not have to answer all of these questions, and you may find that there are other aspects of the auction that are important to discuss.
1. Seller(s)
� What good(s) or service(s) for sale? Does it have any value to the seller if it goes unsold?
1
� What choices does the seller make in setting up the auction � does the seller set a reserve price, advertise the auction, distribute information to the bidders?
� What information does the seller have ahead of time about the item being sold and about the bidders in the auction?
2. Buyers
� What kind of bidders participate in the auction? What level of experience do they typically have? Do you believe that bidders tend to be fairly similar to one another, or can they be separated into distinct categories?
� How do bidders learn about the auction? What information does the bidder have about the item(s) being sold?
� What use or interest do they have in obtaining the item?
� Is there a cost to participating in the auction � perhaps a fee charged by the seller, or perhaps a cost in money, time, or other resources in order to prepare or take part in the auction?
� How many bidders are there in this auction (or a typical auction of this kind)?
� Do you think that the bidders are risk neutral? Risk averse? Risk seeking?
3. Auction Rules and Outcomes
� When and where does the auction take place?
� How are bids submitted? (In person? Electronically? In writing? Over the phone?)
� How is the winner and the price determined?
� Is this auction static or dynamic?
� How long does a typical auction of this kind last?
� Does the seller communicate with or observe buyers� reactions over the course of the auction?
� Are bidders aware of how many other bidders are in the auction? Do they know who they are competing with?
� Can bidders communicate with or observe one another over the course of the auction?
� Is there any indication that bidders cooperate with each other to keep prices low? If cheating might occur, what would it look like in this auction?
� Do sellers have an opportunity to cheat? Why should buyers trust the sellers? 4. Theory
� Consider the assumptions of the independent private values model. What are some specific reasons to believe that this particular auction is a good or a bad fit for that model? If you could change the model in one way, what change do you think would be most important?
� Do you think that this auction best fits the private value model, the common value model, or is it in between?
� Do you expect that bidders are aware of the equilibrium bidding strategy of this auction? Do you think that most (if not all) of the bidders behave in a way that�s reasonably close to the equilibrium bidding strategy?
� Does the information you have about the outcome of the auction (if any) lead you to believe that the outcome matches what the theory would predict?
Format
I expect that about 5 pages of double-spaced text (using typical formatting) will be adequate to present the following:
1. A complete description of the auction. (The first three lists of question will give you an idea of the kind of material to present here.)
2. A discussion of how this auction application compares to the theory we have learned. (See the fourth list of questions above.)
In addition, I expect you to present a bibliography of the sources that you consulted.

1. Vladimir is a successful business person. He owns the Lew Hoa Shopping Complex at Norton Place. He has several shops vacant in the complex. Vladimir’s shopping complex Managing Agents place the following notice on the Lew Hoa Shopping Complex Notice Board in Norton Place on his behalf:
“Shop available for lease. Good rates, electricity included. Contact
Vladimir, MOBILE:005566779”.
Sasha is anxious to find a venue to sell her range of dresses. She reads the notice and telephones Vladimir seeking a meeting with him. At the meeting on June 1st Vladimir says that his terms of the lease are $1,000 per week for a 12 months lease but the tenant is to pay all outgoings including electricity. Sasha protests saying that the advertisement promised that all electricity charges would be included in the rental payment. Vladimir just shrugs his shoulders and says, “This is my offer. Go away and think about it. You had better get back to me soon by email as there is a lot of interest in the premises and I am actively looking for people as well”. Sasha leaves the meeting and goes home.

QUESTION: Do you consider that Sasha would succeed in a claim to the effect that Vladimir should be bound by the advertisement on the Notice Board? Illustrate your answer with decided common law cases, providing the basis of your reasoning. (10 marks).

2. On the 5th of June, that is 4 days after she had the meeting with Vladimir, Sasha decides to accept the offer that he had made verbally to her at the meeting. She writes out a letter in her own handwriting a letter to Vladimir accepting the offer. Sasha signs the letter, puts it in an envelope, affixes a stamp and posts it in a post box outside her local post office at 4 pm on 6th June.
On the same day that is the 6th of June, Vladimir makes his weekly visit to ‘The Cossacks’ a local rugby club of which he is a prominent member and to which he has donated a lot of money. At the club Vladimir meets a fellow member , Milo. Milo says to Vladimir that he has some spare capital and would like to start up a business. Vladimir wants to be thought of as a good fellow and tells Milo that he has a shop vacant which would be ideal. He offers it to Milo for a year’s lease at $1,000 per week. Vladimir also says, “As a favour to you, Milo, I will pay all the electricity outgoings for the shop”. “That’s beaut. I accept your offer.”
When Vladimir comes to his office on the 7th of June, he finds Sasha’s letter dated 5th June accepting his offer waiting for him. Vladimir immediately telephones Sasha and says, “Sorry, Sasha you are too late, I have already leased the shop”. Sensing Sasha’s disappointment, he adds, “I told you to be quick, didn’t I ?”

QUESTION: Sasha consults you saying that she desperately wants the lease of the shop. What advice would you give her? Once again, provide the basis of your reasoning outlining the legal principles. (10 marks).

3. Vladimir then starts up a conversation with Roberto another member of his football club. Roberto is anxious to start up a small business of his own. Vladimir offers him a shop fitted out as a coffee shop. The agreed rental is $1,000 per week. Roberto signs the lease. Business is not good and Roberto becomes worried when he sees other shopkeepers leaving the complex. He asks Roberto whether his rent can be reduced to $500 per week. Vladimir agrees in a conversation with Roberto at the club. There is no formal acknowledgement of this arrangement. For the next 20 weeks, Roberto pays the reduced rental and Vladimir accepts it. Vladimir hears a rumour that Roberto is going to give notice to terminate the lease. Vladimir is annoyed at this and sues Roberto in the Local Court to recover $10,000 “arrears in rent”.

QUESTION: Advise Roberto as to his legal position. You should cite relevant case law and provide the basis of your reasoning. (10 marks).

INSTRUCTIONS:

– For the three essay questions, the combined total word limit excluding references will be 1,800 words.

– The IRAC method (Issue, Rule, Application, and Conclusion) must be used in structuring the answers. Students should ideally set out what the issues are, the law or legal principles to be applied, the consequence of such an application to the rights and obligations of the respective parties and the basis of your reasoning. Relevant cases must be cited.

– References should taken from the precribed textbook (Understanding Business Law / 7th Edition / Graw, Praker, Whitford, Do and Sangkuhl). When you quote a case, provide the full name of the case, the volume of the law report and the page number from which you are extracting the information from. Use the Harvard referencing method which is to cite in brackets in the body of your essay the publication or law report references along the lines suggested.

The essay will include an overview of the concept of happiness, a discussion of the ways in which happiness can be measured and an analysis of the role of positive psychology in the promotion of happiness through counselling and / or coaching. Your essay needs to discuss the application of positive psychology techniques to the promotion of happiness. Evidence of familiarity with relevant literature and theory is required.
or Option number 2: Evaluate the critique of positive psychology raised by Miller (2008, p. 606): “The model of mental health depicted by positive psychology turns out to be little more than a caricature of an extravert – a bland, shallow, goal-driven careerist whose positive attitudes, certainties and ‘high self-esteem’ mask the fact that he lacks the very qualities that would enable him to attain a degree of true self -knowledge or wisdom, and to really grow as a human being”. The essay will need to include an analysis of the above critique of positive psychology, a discussion of how positive psychology may perpetuate a stereotypical ‘ideal’ individual and include a discussion of the application of positive psychology techniques. Evidence of familiarity with relevant literature and theory is required.
