Perfect markets achieve efficiency: maximizing total surplus generated. But real markets are imperfect. In this course we will explore a set of market imperfections to understand why they fail and to explore possible remedies including as antitrust policy, regulation, government intervention. Examples are taken from everyday life, from goods and services that we all purchase and use. We will apply the theory to current events and policy debates through weekly exercises. These will empower you to be an educated, critical thinker who can understand, analyze and evaluate market outcomes.

The title of the course is ‘Economics: Theory & Applications’. The course defines various concepts of economics taking examples from our everyday life. The course is divided into four sections. In the first section, definition of Economics and the difference between Microeconomics and Macroeconomics is discussed with appropriate examples. In the second section, the concept of production possibility frontier and its important uses in economics is explained with necessary illustrations. The third section offers a detail of the theory of demand and supply. With the help of the theory of demand and supply, in the final section, that is, in the last section, the operation of market mechanism and its application is presented. Discussion of the concepts like the Law of One Price, price ceiling, price flooring, etc., makes the section interesting and delighting. The course consists of 20 lectures and a total of 1 hour 35 minutes. With more than ten years of professional experience at university level, I have designed the course so that it can satisfy all of your desires. Besides the students of Economics, the course will serve the interest of the students studying business because of the interdependence between these two.

LEARN TO DECIDE- LEARN MICROECONOMICS Have we ever thought that whatever we have been using, consuming and seeing around is one way or the other related to Economics ? How are prices determined in a market ? Infact how does the market works ? How do we decide what must we purchase and what not ? How does producers and consumers interact to determine the price and quantity in a market ? How and why does the Govt interferes and uses certain policies ?

This training course takes students through the cycle of project feasibility study preparation and evaluation. Feasibility study is needed before starting a new project (product or service), establishing a new business, or upgrading/modifying/expanding an existing business. Through feasibility study preparation cycle, projects can be determined if feasible/viable from the marketing and technical viewpoints. Given their estimated capital and operation costs (CAPEX & OPEX), projects can also be determined whether profitable or not. As the name implies, a feasibility study is used to determine the viability of an idea. The objective of this study is to ensure a project is legally and technically feasible and economically justifiable. It tells us whether a project is worth the investment or not.

This  Course covers several Economics topics like Producer's Equilibrium, Concept of Revenue, Forms of Market and Perfect competition. In Producers Equilibrium, we have covered what is producers Equilibrium, when is it achieved, how can you find out Producers Equilibrium using Marginal cost curve, Long and short run equilibrium and what is perfect competition. In the concept of Revenue section, you would learn about, Average, Marginal and Total Revenue, there inter-se relationship and Demand curve of a firm under Perfect competition and Monopoly or monopolistic competition. When looking at Forms of Market, we have explained various forms of market and there characteristics, including perfect competition, monopoly, monopolistic competition and Oligopoly. How each of these forms of market compare with each other is also covered as a part of this Course. In case of perfect competition, our course covers what would be the market situation in case where either supply or demand are elastic, or inelastic, and there are changes in the other variable. This would cover simultaneous changes in supply and demand, change in demand when supply is perfectly inelastic and vice versa.

Overview As advanced economies come to the end of the process of industrialization and with the rise of information technology we are witnessing the birth of a new type of post-industrial economy, it is built on services, fueled by information and knowledge and it is increasingly integrated through global financial and supply chain networks. These huge changes in the deep architecture to our economies go far beyond our industrial paradigm and are necessitating a re-imagination of economy theory. General equilibrium models that were derived from classical physics got mathematized during the 20th century, these models give us a picture of the economy as composed of isolated, purely rational individuals, optimizing over a well defined set of preferences out of which we get a macro level general equilibrium in a somewhat static and timeless economy. It was a paradigm that fitted well with industrial age mechanization. But today the limitations of general equilibrium theory are becoming more apparent as we build new models, models to individual agents that have bounded rationality, driven by a diversity of motives they are interconnected and interdependent. And it is out of these nonlinear interactions we get the emergence of economic institutions as network structures that are far-from-equilibrium, in an economy that is constantly changing from internal drivers as it develops over time through an evolutionary process. Content This course is an overview to the new area of complexity economics, the application of models from complexity theory to the domain of economic science. The course is broken down into five main sections, we will start off with an overview to economic theory discussing our standard approach before going on to give a clear outline to the main ideas coming out of complexity economies. Next we will borrow from behavioral economics to build up a more complex model to economic agents as we talk about the idea of bounded rationality, different theories of value, choice theory and incentive systems. In the third section we will be looking at nonlinear economics as we apply system dynamics to modeling micro economic phenomena, we will be talking about how feedback loops create nonlinearity and the process of self-organization out of which emerges non-equilibrium patterns of organization in the economy. Next we will apply network analysis to modeling macro level economic institutions such as markets, we will introduce you to the basics of network theory and go on to talk about economic networks, their topology, distribution and dynamics. In the final section will be looking through the lens of complex adaptive systems theory to understand how whole macro economies emerge out of the actions and reactions of many different organizations, we will use the model of a fitness landscape in order to help us understand the process of economic evolution.
