will be. Microeconomics vs. Macroeconomics The supply and demand simulation displays different facets of economic structures. Even though typically concentrated on microeconomics, the simulation shows a unimportant aspect of macroeconomics. The principles of microeconomics will apply to a drop in rent prices to escalate the supply being demanded. An additional microeconomic principle displayed in the simulation is the rise in demand if the cost of rent is dropped. Macroeconomics principles come into

Supply and Demand Microeconomics vs. Macroeconomics The supply and demand simulation shows different aspects of economic structures. Although mostly focused on microeconomics, the simulation does show a small role of macroeconomics. The principles of microeconomics would apply to drop in rent prices to increase the supply being demanded. Another microeconomic principle shown in the simulation is the rise in demand when the cost of rent is lowered. Macroeconomics principles came into play when

Demand, Supply and Prices in the Housing Industry F. Hill ECO/365 Principles of Microeconomics July 30, 2014 Mr. Keith Watts Abstract The slowdown in the housing market in the US has been accompanied by a sharp fall in house prices and a glut of homes for sale in the market. While the idea that this high number of dwellings for sale should place downward pressure on house prices is intuitive, little empirical work has been done in this area to assess the factors affecting house prices. This

These aspects include large parks, jogging paths, and maintained streets and sidewalks. GoodLife Management is the only company that rents apartments within the town. They currently have a vacancy rate of 28 percent. The principles of macroeconomics as well as microeconomics can help them understand and decrease the vacancy rate to 15 percent. It is important for the company to understand the shifts in the supply and demand curves. The rental company can be more successful if they know when to
