Important concepts
Business Economics applies economic reasoning to firm and market decisions. Begin demand analysis with the difference between a movement along a curve and a shift, then use elasticity to describe responsiveness. Production and cost concepts connect inputs, output and the time horizon; market-structure questions compare competition, monopoly and imperfect competition by their assumptions and outcomes. At the macro level, national income, inflation, business cycles and monetary or fiscal policy describe the wider environment. Read each question for the market, time period and policy objective it assumes.
