of the two-bedroom apartments leading to shift in both the demand and supply curves. One of the microeconomic principle in this simulation is the law of increasing opportunity cost because it states that production of an additional unit of a product increases the cost of production. It therefore means that increasing the number of two-bedroom apartments will increase production cost. Another principle is that an increase in the price of a product leads to decrease in demand of the product. Low rental

The purpose of this paper is to discuss the Supply and Demand simulation from the student website. The idea is to identify two microeconomic and two macroeconomic principles present in the simulation and to explain why these principles are categorized as macro or microeconomic. The paper will also determine one shift of the supply curve and one shift of the demand curve from the simulation, as well as why these shifts happen. Their impact on the equilibrium price, on decision making, and on quantity

Supply and Demand Simulation ECO/365 Supply and Demand Simulation The supply and demand simulation included both microeconomics and macroeconomics concepts. The simulation focused on a property management firm, GoodLife Management, and its ability to adjust the levels of supply and demand of two-bedroom apartments in the Atlantis community. GoodLife Management was challenged with changes in population, tastes, income, and a price ceiling. As a result of these factors the firm had to strategize
