THE WRITHER MOUST BE FAMILIAR WHIT ECON 101 ?GLENDALE COMMUNITY COLLEGE ?BOOK PRINCIPLES OF MICROECONOMICS THE WRITHING SHOULD BE BASED ON THE BOOKS EXAMLE AS MUCH AS POSIBLE AND USE SIMPLE WORDS

1. Complete a table for Q, FC, VC, TC, MC, MR, Price, TR and Profit using reasonable numbers for a perfectly competitive firm. For price, use a number equal to the number of letters in your first name. For Q use 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 may name is lilia
For MC use $2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 11, 14, 15 Use numbers that create a single quantity for which profit is maximized. You may need to play around with the numbers to make this work out. Show that MR = MC at profit maximization by graphing MC and MR.

In place of question 2 below, you may substitute the following:

(calculus substitute). Go to the calculus in micro modules (top of Moodle page). Complete the following sections:
Marginal analysis;
Profit maximization; and
Average costs and marginal cost.
For each section, identify one page that could be improved so that you will learn more about the connection between microeconomics and calculus. Explain how I might improve those three pages.
Microeconomics and calculus
At the margin
Much of microeconomics looks at behavior at the margin. That means how one variable changes when there are small changes in another variable. You can see calculus here: this is simply the first derivative.
Here are examples of changes at the margin:

Marginal cost =
Marginal revenue =
Marginal tax rate = (Except notice here that the change is discontinuous. There are tax brackets so that we won’t use calculus here.)
Here’s an example for marginal cost.
If total cost = + 20Q + 500
Then marginal cost = 6Q + 20
?You try one:
If total cost = – + 30 + 40
By finding marginal cost for Q = 1, 2, and 4, we can see that: n the previous example, marginal cost rose over the three levels of output. Remember
Total cost = -Q3 + 30 Q2 + 40, so dTC/dQ = MC = -3 Q2 +60Q
At Q = 1, MC = 57; at Q= 2 MC = 108; and at Q = 4, MC = 192.
?
Now try one for marginal revenue.
?
If Total revenue = -4Q2+ 150Q

?
What is marginal revenue at Q = 10?

Now try one for marginal revenue.

1100One of the shortcuts you’ll learn in microeconomics is that profits are maximized at the output level where marginal revenue = marginal cost. This can be shown to be intuitively true because if the amount coming (marginal revenue) does not balance the amount going out (marginal cost), then it is possible to increase profits by changing the output.
?
But we can prove the rule using calculus.
Profit = TR – TC
If we differentiate profit with respect to Q
= –
?
To find maximum profit, set this equation equal to zero,
?
= or MR = MC
?
You can use calculus to find profit maximization.
If TR = – 9 and TC = 2 Q + 1
Then MR = 2Q and MC = 2; so 2Q = 2 and Q = 1

You try one:
If TC = 4 + 10Q – 1 and TR = 50Q + 4
What level of Q maximizes profit? (remember to find MR and MC using calculus)

8.5When we study average total cost (ATC) and marginal cost (MC), you’ll learn that ATC = MC when ATC is at a minimum. In economics, this means that a firm is most efficient (ATC at a minimum) when ATC = MC. This can be shown intuitively because adding one more unit that is less than the average will pull the average down, whereas adding one more unit this greater than the average will put the average up. If the additional unit equals the average, then the average is unchanged, that is it is at a minimum.
?
But this is shown more convincingly with calculus. ?
ATC = TC/Q; to find the minimum ATC differentiate ?
= = (TC – Q x )/
??Setting the equation = 0 ?
TC = ( Q x )
so that TC/ Q =
or ATC = MC
?Try a problem: ??If TC = 3 + 12Q
Find ATC, find MC and then find where they are equal.

ATC = 3Q +12; MC = 6Q+ 12; Q = 4

ATC = 18Q; MC = 6Q + 12; Q = 1

ATC = 6Q – 12; MC = 3Q; Q = 4

ATC = 12Q + 3; MC = 15Q; Q = 1
2. In the Glendale College library, online, and in most public libraries, you will find an extensive collection of corporate annual reports. Please choose a corporation that begins with the first letter of your first or last name.(my first name lilia last name allahyari)
What is the name of your corporation? What does it produce? How large is this corporation? (please think carefully about the best way to measure size) Be careful with your units. Skim through the annual report looking for one of the following concepts. It is unlikely that the report will use this precise language, but all reports use at least two of these concepts implicitly:
Economies of scale versus diseconomies of scale
Fixed costs versus variable costs
Shutdown versus exit
Marginal versus average costs
Explain how the report refers to one of these concepts.

 

3.Based on your reading of the article ?Climate Economics in Four Easy Pieces? in the photocopy reader:(Before answer this question u should read the article go to GOOGLE and type Climate economics in four easy pieces by FRANK ACERMAN)

Identify two concepts used in this article that we have studied in Microeconomics. How does the author use the concept and how is each similar to how we used in in the course?

4. Based on your learning from chapters 7, 8, and 9, select one concept for a one-page essay and reflect on the following:
How did learning about this concept change the way I understand [insert specifics about the concept]?
Why is learning this concept important?

san diego zoo

Field Research Project/Paper
Assignment: Primate Observation and Analysis
Take a trip to a local zoo. The San Diego Zoo, Los Angeles Zoo, or the San Diego Wild Animal Park are best. The San Diego Zoo or Wild Animal Park are more expensive, but have the best selection of non-human primates and the best habitats. The Santa Ana Zoo is the closest, and cheapest, but its selection of primates, and quality of its habitats are limited. Look for discount coupons, online deals, and student discounts. Save your zoo admission receipt to turn in with your written assignment. Try to go to the zoo in the morning or late afternoon (mornings are best), and if possible on a weekday.

Bring: A lawn chair (optional), note pad or video camera, pen/pencil, still camera (optional), and a date or friend (optional).

Field Assignment: Observe a single non-human primate species for one hour, take notes
or shoot video. Observe a family or social group of humans in their natural habitat for 30 minutes; a public eating area (restaurant etc.), bar, or recreational setting is excellent.

At the Zoo: Once you arrive at the zoo you should briefly tour the various primate exhibits to decide which species of non-human primate you would like to observe; I would highly suggest that you choose a species of ape.

Note the species common name, taxonomic classification, and any other pertinent information supplied by the zoo, zookeepers, primate “groupies,” or other sources of information. Begin your observation by attempting to recognize individuals in the group/enclosure. This may be obvious for some primates and not so obvious for others. Examine the face and body of each individual for several minutes paying attention to the various features that distinguish it from other members of the group. For example, there will be differences in body size (i.e. sexual dimorphism), in coat/fur (length or color in different regions of the body), age, anatomy, or sex. You may consider giving an identifying name to these individuals of your own creation, or if “ape groupies” are available ask them for individual names.

Next, observe the behaviors that individuals or groups of individuals engage in, active individuals are best. The purpose of this is to learn how to categorize the behavior(s) you observe and construct definitions to describe what these behaviors are and why they might occur. Be aware that people tend to see what they want to see and ignore what they may perceive as unimportant. Consider this and try your utmost to avoid any personal biases you may have. Behaviors you should look for may include, but are not limited to: types of locomotion, resting positions, sleeping positions/postures, feeding activities, aggression, play, grooming, sexual acts, vocalizations, facial expressions, gestures, display, indications of dominance hierarchy, etc. Speculate why these actions might be performed. Can correlations be made to human behavior? Try to note when and where behaviors occur in relation to other members of the troop and/or zoo patrons. Try to recognize the identifying features of each behavior, and what might cause it to occur.

Human Observation: The technique for human observation is the same as above, but try to be inconspicuous, these primates are very temperamental and they will alter their behavior if they know you are watching them. Find a social or family group, or a couple, and try to choose subjects that remain more or less stationary during your observation. A family of tourists at the zoo with young children, a social group at a bar, coffee house or the beach, your own family, or a couple out together might be ideal. Do not communicate with these primates while you are observing them.

Write: A 6-8 page, typed, double-spaced, twelve-point, Times New Roman font, essay about your fieldwork. In your essay note the species name and address the following questions:
1. What were your initial thoughts regarding having to go to the zoo?
2. What is the taxonomic classification of the non-human primate species you observed?
What does this indicate about its evolutionary relationships to other primates and humans?
Examples: Hominoid, Anthropoid, Old World Anthropoid. How is this classification reflected in the physical or behavioral characteristics of the primate you observed?
3. Where are these primate species found in the world (continent/s, environment)?
4. What is the conservation status of these primate species today?
5. Describe the physical characteristics of the primate species you observed? (tail, no tail, etc.)
Are these species of primate sexually dimorphic?
How was this sexual dimorphism manifested (physical characteristics)?
How does this relate to the normal social structure of this species in the wild? Was this the type of social structure that you observed at the zoo (or other location)? If not, why not (why do think not)?
6. Did you discover any similar behaviors that the humans and the non-human primate species your observed performed?
7. Did you see any behaviors that indicative of a social dominance hierarchy?
If so, how was this manifested?
8. What kinds of behaviors distinguish, or make one or both species unique?
9. Did the primates do anything that surprised you?
10. Why do you think that scientists study non-human primates to better understand humans?
11. What was your overall impression of primates after doing your field-work?
12. Include analysis from your course material (lectures, Annual Editions Exercises, Videos, Textbook).

References: Do not copy and paste from internet or other sources. Do not plagiarize in any way. If you cite/use additional sources in your paper, besides course lectures, include a reference page. Any format you are familiar with (MLA, APA, AAA, etc.) are acceptable.

Turn In: A PAPER COPY of your paper, and UPLOAD A COPY TO BLACKBOARD, along with your field notes, or video photographs (optional), and your ZOO TICKET stub or receipt (or a copy of your ticket).

Book Analysis Instructions (Optional: Instead of Zoo Project)
(To be completed only if a student is unable to get to the zoo.)
Write: A six to eight page, typed, double-spaced, Times New Roman, twelve-point font, book analysis.
Analysis: Your book report should be more of an analysis than a review. Place minimal emphasis on the narrative of the story; what happened. Instead emphasize conceptual connections between the book and the course. Identify concepts that you recognize in the book and explain why they are relevant or how they apply.

Books: See your instructor for book selections.

Comparative Analysis with Sources

The Assignment: In each of this course?s four units, we have examined not just a Dialogue consisting of two literary texts, but a moment in American literary history: poetry at mid-century; realism and the late 19th century; modernism and the early 20th century; post-modernism and the late 20th/early 21st century. In this paper, you?ll analyze any two texts from one of those Dialogues, examining them in relation to one another and developing an overall idea about their moment in the process. And to help you flesh out that overall idea, you?ll also bring in at least two outside sources, from one or more of three possible contextual areas. This paper should be 6-7 pages (around 10 to 12 paragraphs) in length.

The Three Research Contexts: Your options for outside sources fall into three possible areas; for the paper you should include and cite (in MLA format) at least two such sources, which can come from any one or a combination of these areas:
1) Contemporary Literature: Other literary texts from the same era as your two main ones. Can include texts by authors we read in the same unit (ie, authors such as Twain, Chesnutt, Harte, James, Piatt, Chopin, Crane, et al), although not the texts that we read as a group.
2) Historical or Cultural Evidence: Historical details/texts from the same era; can include primary texts accessed directly (autobiographies, newspaper or magazine articles, legal or governmental texts, texts from other media such as photographs, works of art, songs, or film/TV clips) or found in secondary works on the era (histories, collections).
3) Critical Perspectives: Literary critical readings of either/both of the two main texts or authors, and/or of their era.

The Essay: Your principal job in this essay will be to develop and argue for an overall idea about your two main texts and their moment; that idea will be developed through the usual essay structures (intro with thesis, evidence paragraphs, conclusion). Your first task, then, will be to think about the two readings, identify points you want to make about each and both, and then begin to develop that main idea and think about what it might say about their literary status and moment. Once you have begun to do so, however, and well before you attempt to outline or write any portion of the paper, you?ll also identify, locate, and incorporate outside sources from one or more of the categories listed above; these sources should in some way help you develop or flesh out your main idea (they don?t have to agree with it precisely, but rather can provide supporting evidence in some way or other, or even contrasting evidence that you want to respond to).

 

For my two texts, I would like to use Nella Larsen’s Passing and Langston Hughes’ The Weary Blues. I would like it show how they reflected on the Harlem Renaissance or The Jazz Age.

State Correctional System Administration Scenarios

Final Project

Administration Scenarios

The assignment is to read the following three scenarios. Using the concepts and skills learned in class, students will have to identify the strategy and methods to achieve the goal of the scenario. The course material and prior assessments will serve as building blocks to the final assessment.

Content requirements: Your report should include the following:

An Introduction that explains the purpose of the paper
Your assessment of the assignment from the Commissioner
A detailed description of your strategy and method(s) to achieve the assigned goals
A “References” section, in which you cite the course instructional materials and other sources, using APA citation format
o NOTE: Your report of each Assignment should be supported by a minimum of one (1) outside resource (not the course instructional materials) for a total of not less than three (3) outside resources for the Final Project.

Project Assignment

You are the Director of Programs for a large state correctional system. The Commissioner comes to you with three (3) projects. Each project has specific goals. Unfortunately, achievement of these goals cannot require an increase in the systems’ administrative or operational budget. Specifically precluded are any increases in staffing or allotment for new equipment.

Assignment 1

With few exceptions, every inmate in the system is destined to return to the community. Successful transition from institutional life to community-based supervision is dependent upon the pre-reentry program the inmate will complete prior to parole. The goal is to develop a detailed outline of the instructional curriculum for inmates eligible for the transition and reentry program and a plan to coordinate the training of staff members, both inside the institutions and in the Division of Parole.

Assignment 2

The life blood of every correctional system is its budget. In order to plan for future budget needs, the Commissioner must be able to project future priorities for the correctional systems over the next decade. As Program Director your assigned goal is to identify the emerging and driving forces over the next ten years that the system will need to manage in order to continue to be effective? This projection must include what priorities will need to be set, and what changes will need to be made in staffing, technology, training, and management and supervision to meet these new challenges.

Assignment 3

Within the Commissioner’s correctional system a large medium security prison is nearing completion. This institution will house 1,000 male inmates transferred in from around the state. The transferees have already been identified. All are convicted felons and their projected average length of institutional incarceration is approximately 37 months. As the Programs Director your goal is to identify which traditional correctional programs should be replicated in the new institution as well as any new programs to meet the needs of these offenders. Describe each program, the eligibility criteria for inmates (if any), and the intended outcomes.

Format Requirements

· Paper should be approximately 3,000 words and may not exceed ten pages
· Double space
· 12 pt. font
· 1” margins
· Use APA citations for all sources
· Include reference page using APA format guidelines (not included in word count)

Additionally –
· Create a cover page for your assignment (not included in word count)

A STRATEGY CASE STUDY RELATE TO AGD

You are to write a 3,000 word report on the case study organisation AGD. Your analysis should draw on material contained in the case study itself, your wider reading in the area of international strategic management, and, where you feel this is justified, information relating to the environmental context of the organisation. Please include relevant references in your report. Appendices may be used but only to contain information of secondary importance, i.e. not information that is critical for your analysis. Information that could be included in an appendix include market reports, macro-economic statistics, product specifications etc.
Your report should address the following issues:
1. An analysis of the development of the company until 2001 drawing on key models, theories and concepts in strategic management. You must go beyond the explanation provided in the case study itself. This is worth 50% of the marks.
2. Propose an international expansion strategy. Here it is recommended you focus on product-market combinations, including market entry strategies. You must provide solid reasons for your recommendations. This will include some research on products and markets. This is worth 50% of the marks.

Further guidelines:
• Because this is a report please make sure your report conforms to a report layout, i.e. include a table of contents, an executive summary (no more than 5% of the total word count) and section headers. Please append the marking criteria table at the end of your report (this is not included in the word count!).
• Make sure you reference widely, both academic and non-academic sources.
• Make sure your report is not a list of direct quotations. It is fine to use direct quotations occasionally but the rule is that you should write yourself rather than relying on someone else’s words.
• There is no one correct way of tackling this assignment. The instructions have been written with the intent of allowing you scope to bring in your own creativity and originality.
• In answering the second part of the assignment, i.e. where you are proposing an international expansion strategy, we do not expect you to base this on more information about the organisation than is already contained within the case study..
