You do not need to be an expert in the subject; you just need a basic understanding and the ability to quickly recall the information that you learned. Use this guide as a reference tool to deepen your comprehension of key topics and enhance your performance during the end-of-semester final examination.

In this subject you will build on the knowledge developed in your first year economics subjects, developing skills that are essential for undertaking applied microeconomic policy analysis in both private and public sectors. You will focus on consumer and producer decisions using a range of approaches, considering market equilibrium under different degrees of competitiveness, including perfect competition, monopoly and the impact of market power.

On successful completion you will be able to:

apply analytical reasoning to demonstrate and explain the incentives faced by individuals, firms, other non-government groups, and the state;
analyse consumer, household, and producer decisions demonstrating and explaining relevant economic trade-offs; and,
use models of consumer and producer decision-making to critically evaluate the welfare implications of different equilibria and critically evaluate the case for policy interventions by government.
