Select a news article with economic implications within the previous six months and explain, analyze and expand the issue using the economic concepts and theory learned in this class. Include at least one graph developed in our course. You may use the Wall Street Journal, Businessweek, Times, etc. or any other business or economics journal or newspaper to locate your article. The article should connect to a topic or chapter covered in the course. A good method to look at topics is to review the learning modules contained within each week’s course content, and see if your article matches up with any or some of them.

Possible concepts include:

• taxes and consumer or producer surplus
• demand, supply, and equilibrium price of a particular product
• elasticity on a particular product
• perfect competition and imperfect competition, such as monopolies
• labor market, wages, and income inequality
