Prices subject to change. For every 10 econ dollars you acquire you will be given 1 extra point on your final grade. There will be from time to time other ways to earn econ dollars and you can spend your econ dollars and other goods and services in class. The fourth hours will be used for doing the problems in the book, further review, and occasionally experiments and games. You are generally expected to attend fourth hours, but in those cases where we are simply reviewing problems you should maximize your utility.
Case studies are an important part of the course.
We will be doing 9 cases over the course of the semester. You are required to write up three of the cases. These papers should be two pages long and answer the main questions addressed by the case. If you choose to write up a case the write up is due the next class after we discuss the class. Cases will be handed out on the Monday and we will be doing the cases on Friday.
