Course Objectives: | This an introductory course so the economic logic is introduced by the analitical models.The economic activities embrace all aspects of our lives.We lead our lives by decisions.Economics has a chain of logic while these decisions are taken.So the economic logic of optimization,equilibrium and empiricism principles are given and mastered in this course.With the examples of daily lives,the relationship between theory and experience are given as well. |
Course Content: | Role of consumers, firms and employees as economic actors; economic interaction; economic selection and constraints; consumer theory and demand; firm theory: production, cost and supply; general balance; market structure; market failures; missing information; welfare; Examples from the world and Turkey. |
