...Joseph Garrity Intro to Business Professor Patricia Devlin 13 September 2013 Chapter 1 7. Explain how current economic indicators, such as inflation and unemployment, affect you personally. Explain how they may affect you as a manager. The current economic indicators may affect me personally because if the unemployment rate is too high I will struggle to find a job, and if inflation is too high then it would be very hard for me to pay for my needs, such as food and rent. The current economic indicators may affect me as a manager because inflation would cost me a lot of money and as a result I would have to stop hiring workers. The unemployment rate would rise because of inflation, and as a result it would be hard to find workers. 9. Visit a local shopping mall or shopping area. List each store that you see and determine what degree of competition it faces in its immediate environment. For example, if there is only one store in the mall that sells shoes, that store represents a monopoly. Note those businesses with direct competitors (two jewelry stores) and show how they compete with one another. In the Willowbrook Mall, Abercrombie & Fitch is a store that sells primarily clothes or accessories to the consumers. However, the competitors are Hollister Co., J. Crew, and Banana Republic because they also sell similar items, but have their own brand of clothing as well. They have different prices or the same prices depending on the clothes they are selling.

...this book on Phillips Exeter Academy, which is an impressive boarding school located in New Hampshire (Literature and Times). The author John Knowles connects his life to his novel, and the connection between his life and this work makes this story more believable and more interesting. John Knowles was born on September 16, 1962, in Fair Mount, West Virginia. As a child, John’s parents worked in a coal business in West Virginia. (Exeter.edu) His brother, James Knowles, attended the Mercersburg Academy in Pennsylvania and then college in Dartmouth. John’s parents thought that schools in New England would offer a better education than the ones nearby, so they decided to look at many catalogues of schools throughout this area. Out of the blue, John says, he, “pick[ed] up a catalog one day which was lying around the house, the catalog was for Philips Exeter Academy” (Exeter.edu). Phillips Exeter is an all-male boarding school in New Hampshire. After graduating high school in 1945, John decided to go to Yale, and there he earned a Bachelor’s degree in 1949. (NYT.com) Throughout his life, John wrote nine novels and eight stories. A Separate Peace was John’s biggest hit. This novel has received the William Faulkner Award and the Rosenthal Award from the National Institute of Art and Lectures. (“About the Author”). John Knowles passed away in 2001 at the age of 75 from a short illness. In the novel A Separate Peace, the Devon School took the place of Phillips Exeter Academy...

...increase in AD will only lead to inflation in the long run. · However in the short term M. Friedman stated there may be a trade off between unemployment and inflation. · If there is an increase in AD firms will increase wages to encourage more workers to supply their labour. Workers believe they have higher real wages and so are willing to supply more labour. · This increase in the supply of labour leads to an increase in output and therefore there will be a temporary fall in unemployment . Therefore there will be a movement along the SR Phillips curve · However workers later realise inflation has increased therefore they re-adjust their expectations of inflation, and realise the increase in wages is only a nominal increase. Therefore workers don’t supply more labour and output returns to the Long run equilibrium of Yf. · Therefore in the long term output has stated the same but inflation has increased. · Therefore the Long Run Phillips curve is inelastic because higher inflation has not been accompanied by lower unemployment · Any reduction in unemployment due to increased AD would only be temporary · Monetarist argue that Unemployment cannot be altered by AD in the long run. But will remain at its Natural Rate which would be 5% Rational Expectation Monetarists They argue that there will be no trade off even in the short run, because people will readjust their expectations of inflation when AD is increased and so do not supply extra...

...Testing Phillips Curve in long run in the US Economy Introduction: Phillips curve is one of the most startling observations made in economics and gained much popularity in 1960s. The inverse relationship between unemployment rate and inflation rate was first observed by William Phillips in 1958 in his study on British economy during the period 1861-1957. For many years this relationship has been used by policy makers to target unemployment and inflation levels. However, in recent times there are various doubts emerging to this concept as there are cases studied where the trade off between unemployment rate and inflation rate can be observed in the long run thus rendering this concept entirely short run in nature? (Phillips, A.W. cited in Ogbokor, 2005).It would be crucial yet interesting to test the validity of traditional long run Phillips curve as it used as a policy guideline and has had many controversies revolving around it for the same. Objective: Phillips Curve in the Long run: Examining the Long run relationship between unemployment rate and inflation rate in United States using univariate analysis (analysis based on descriptive statistics). Methodology: The data used for analysis has 58 observations collected over the period 1952-2008 consisting unemployment rate and inflation rate of US. It has been collected from Bureau of Labour Statistics and Measuringworth.com. We will make use of statistical tools to test the existence of relationship, if any...

...The number of people who applied for unemployment benefits and applications went down slightly last week, after a previous big drop the week before. The labor department said that there were 367,000 seasonal applications for unemployment. Applications for unemployment are a great measure of the pace of layoffs. When applications are consistently below 375,000, it says that job growth is strong enough to lower the countries unemployment rate. There were only 135,000 jobs that employers added in March and April, which is well below the amount of jobs available during the previous three months. This raised fears that the job market was slowing down. If applications stay where they are or even drop lower, than it is possible that hiring will rise to recovering levels of 150,000 to 200,000 per month. Leaps in job openings, points to more hiring in the coming months. From December to February it has been the best months of job growth since July 2008. With the unseasonably warm winter, many companies looked to higher earlier than they normally would of during the spring. Economists now are trying to calculate how much of an affect this will have on hiring during the spring. There are about 500,000 Americans that have left the work force since February. This is one reason unemployment has continued to fall, because people who leave the work force are not counted in unemployment. Even though the unemployment rate is falling we are still a long way away from recovery. Because...

...to an increase in overall level of prices within an economy. In simple words, it means you have to pay more money to get the same amount of goods or services as you acquired before. By contrast, the term unemployment is easier to understand. Generally, it refers to those people who are available for work but do not find a work. And unemployment rate, which is the percentage of the labour force that is unemployed, is usually used to measure unemployment (Mankiw 1992). The debate of the relationship between inflation and unemployment is mainly based on the famous “Phillips Curve”. This curve was first discovered by a New Zealand born economist called Allan William Phillips. In 1958, A. W. Phillips published an article “The relationship between unemployment and the rate of change of money wages in the United Kingdom, 1861-1957”, in which he showed a negative correlation between inflation and unemployment (Phillips 1958). As shown in figure 1, when unemployment rate is low, the inflation rate tends to be high, and when unemployment is high, the inflation rate tends to be low, even to be negative. Figure 1...

...the eyes of someone who lived and witnessed this time in history. Who wrote this book? When was it published? What is the book’s purpose? Who was supposed to read this book? This book was written by Frederick Douglass himself and it was published in 1845. The purpose of this book was to inform the readers about the horrors of slavery and the effects it had on the people. I also believe that since this book was written during the time of slavery, he wanted to persuade people against it. I believe he wished everyone, especially children during the time to read it to realize the horrors of such an institution. Who were William Lloyd Garrison and Wendell Phillips? What were their roles in book? William Lloyd Garrison is the Founder of the American Anti-Slavery Society, while Wendell Phillips s the president of the society. These men played roles in getting Frederick Douglass to publish his work and story about slavery. Mr. Garrison also hired Frederick for the cause of abolishing slavery. Briefly describe the author of this book – i.e., birth date and location, geographical movements, life when book was published. Based on the course/textbook, was he a typical slave? The author, Frederick Douglass, is said to be born around 1818, however the exact year is not known since slaves are not told their exact birth date. He is born into slavery on a farm in Talbot, Maryland and worked on farms there as well as in Baltimore. When he published his book...
