ECO 201 Project Template [Throughout this template, replace the content in bracketed text with your own responses, and deleted any bracketed instructions (including these).] [The Introduction section of your report is provided and should remain standard in all submissions.] [The placeholders for your data visualizations (e.g., charts, graphs, and tables) should be replaced with the appropriate indicated images in each case. To create an isolated image from the simulation data, it is recommended that you use a snipping tool to copy and paste your data visualizations into this template. See How to Use the Snipping Tool (Beginner’s Guide) for more information if you use a PC. A captioned version of this video is available: How to Use the Snipping Tool (Beginner’s Guide) (CC) . Or, see Is There a Snipping Tool for Mac? .] Memo To: My Business Partner From: Major Cephas Date 08/21/2022 Re: Microeconomics Simulations Introduction This memorandum report identifies and explains key microeconomic principles using a set of simulation games. The outcome of these games illustrate how microeconomic principles can be applied within real-life situations to help us make better business decisions. This report is a summary of the simulations I played and their results, which include the key takeaways and their significance, for your review and reference. It is divided into the following sections: 1. Comparative Advantage 2. Competitive Markets and Externalities 3. Production, Entry, and Exit 4. Market Structures (including the Price Discrimination and Cournot simulations) 5. Conclusions 6. References
Comparative Advantage Figure 1.1
1.The definition of opportunity cost is the loss of potential gain from other alternatives when one alternative is chosen: "Idle cash balances represent an opportunity cost in terms of lost interest". If the cost of the decision outweighs the benefits of the business, we may not go forward with the decision. We can also compare the price of our other competitors, if the cost is too low for our competitors, then we will have the advantage over them comparative advantage is the ability to
produce goods at a lower price then our competitors. This will help us to have the advantage against our competitors. We can also use each other practices for the benefits of both companies using trades. It’s impossible for some one to have a comparative over another with all the products as shown with the simulation. If we trade with good, we should have the advantage. The production possibility frontier model is a graph that shows he combination of outputs that the economy can possibly produce given the available factors of production and the available production technology. IF we take a look at the PPF model regarding specialization and trade we can use the models to shoe the different amount of outputs the company is able to produce.
