1919 unread replies.1919 replies.

Please think of an example from everyday life of an event that caused eitherthe supply or the demand for a product to increase or decrease (please only shift one curve). Please take the time to think of a straightforward (easy) example; it will work much better. 

Once you have your example, please complete the following steps for your discussion post:

write a short description of the event explaining if it caused the supply curve OR the demand to shift and in which direction (increase or decrease)

explain how the shift affected the quantity and price in the market for the product.

draw a graph showing:

               the original supply and demand curves

               the original equilibrium point

               the original quantity and price (q1 and p1 are fine – you don’t need to add real prices or quantities)

               how the curve shifted (right or left)

               the new equilibrium point

               the new quantity and price (q2 and p2 are fine)

               *don’t forget to label both axes

Please provide 3 different examples to the prompt above 

I have a research that requires the use of the eviews program in order to do the analyzes , It requires collecting data for 30 years and analyzing it using this program.And the topic is about Saving and it’s impact on output in Saudi Arabia

Those are the required analyses:

? Hetrocedastisity

? Multi collinearity

? Autocorrelation

The variables must be explained in theory form (as the nature of the relationship if it’s positive or negative) & statistically

Variables are: GDP , savings, interest rate and inflation.

GDP (Y) is independent variable. Savings, Interest rate and inflation are dependent variables.

Conclusion must include the relation of the variables with the research topic.

Recommendations must be written after conclusion.

Take screenshots with every step in eviews program and put it under the appendix.

The whole research must not have any pronouns forms such as: we and I. Instead use formal forms for example: Through the study, it became clear that… do not use terms like we see.

Analysis Guidance

1. FF Factors and RF rate included in corresponding file (0.05 = 5%).
2. Pick your 5-10 stocks following the restrictions listed in the project description.
3. Use Yahoo! Finance to download ten years of monthly prices (use adjusted close price).
4. Calculate individual stock returns as the change in monthly prices from Yahoo! using the formula in the project description.
5. Calculate your monthly portfolio returns starting with equal weights in all stocks
6. Use the first five years (before investment begins) to find the optimal weights (long only) for your portfolio using the optimization method of your choice (use the 5 year average rf rate if you optimize with the Sharpe ratio).
7. Use these weights to calculate your portfolio returns on the last five years (time you are actually invested).
8. Regress your portfolio returns on the FF 3 Factors.
9. Regress your portfolio returns on the FF 5 Factors.
10. Run an F-Test between your two model specifications.
11. Answer the questions on the Project Answer sheet

Read Chapters 3 and 4 of Macroeconomics: Private and Public Choice.

For this discussion you will debate with your peers the concept of increasing minimum wage.

In order to participate in a knowledgeable debate, you must have a firm understanding of each side of the issue. Your textbook discusses minimum wage in detail and like many traditional economists, for the most part, does not support increases in the minimum wage citing the negative impacts that such increases may create.

The Federal Open Market Committee meets several times each year. After they meet, they release a meeting statement.

Go to the Federal Open Market Committee (Links to an external site.)website and review the most recent FOMC Meeting Statement. Write a 300 to 500 word paper outlining the key points from the meeting statement.

• List at least two interesting items you learned from the most recent statement.
• List at least two confusing items you would like to learn more about from the most recent statement.

If you are not able to gather two of each type of item from the most recent report, feel free to go back to recent prior months. Cite any of the reports you use on your references page.
