一、課程說明(Course Description)
This is a two consecutive semesters course. There are five major parts of
subjects to be introduced in this course. The subjects of the first part are
about the household. We will focus on individual consumer's decision making
with and without uncertainty. In the second part, we will focus on the
decision making at the level of individual firm. Given the technological
opportunities available to it, how much output will a firm choose to see, and
how will the firm go about producing this output? In the third part, the
competitive model will be introduced. We will see a competitive market
produces results that are in some sense "good". In the fourth, we will see
different kinds of market structures. The price and output decisions under
different market structrue will be analyzed and compared with those under
perfect competition. In the last part, the problem of missing market will be
discussed. In the presence of asymmetric information, the markets for certain
commodities may not come into existence. Even if markets exist, they may fail
to allocate resources efficiently.
