Business Finance

Hello, here are the instructions for this paper.

In our session this module week we’ve been discussing the differences between micro and macroeconomics. Hopefully, you’ve learned a lot from our deep dive into the Circular Flow Model. Let’s put what we’re learning to the test! In this assignment, prepare a short essay that distinguishes the role of firms in our macroeconomy.

In your essay, identify the following:

  • Choose a real-life example of an oligopolistic market structure in the U.S.
  • Identify how your firm has been impacted by our macroeconomy.
  • Determine if your firm was dependent on the federal government for a bailout and/or restructuring.
  • Describe the factors your chosen firm has taken to avoid market failure at a macro-level.
  • Examine how your chosen firm affects our macroeconomy with regard to economic output.

Your essay must be supported by a minimum of three sources, be in current APA format, and be at least 500 words in length. Here are the required pages:

  • Title page
  • Introduction
  • Body of the paper
  • Conclusion
  • Reference page
