Economics for Business Decision Making

What it covers

This unit aims to provide students with an introduction to microeconomic and macroeconomic theories and how these are applied practices. It seeks to bridge the gap between theory and practice in the context of today’s changing technological landscape by requiring students to apply analytical skills to address industry and government case studies such as: how prices and output are set by firms to maximise profit; how key macroeconomic indicators are employed to assess economic conditions by business decision-makers; and what ESG (environmental, social and governance) policies and best practices are available to deal with different types of market failures.
