Economic Analysis for Managers

Along with MBA 602, this course provides perspectives and tools to enhance managerial problem solving. The course focuses on understanding the economic context in which organizations function and the economic decision tools for bettering firm performance. Consequently, the course uses macroeconomic variables (such as national income and productivity, money and banking, and the economic role of government) to inform the microeconomic choices organizations must make to enhance their own success (such as cost determination, pricing, risk analysis). Prerequisite: MBA 510 and MBA 520 or equivalent.
