The course objective is to teach the principles of microeconomics. Microeconomics is the analysis of the manner in which markets resolve the problem posed by the reality of scarce resources. A model of efficiency is constructed and is analyzed through the topics of demand, supply, production, distribution, consumer choice, the behavior of the firm, and market structure. A consideration of market failures and the role of government in a market-driven society completes the analysis.
