Introduction
1. Select a company whose product(s) you use in your daily life or would like to explore in
greater detail. You might want to do some preliminary research before making this
decision. You may choose any firm you wish, so long as their information is publicly
available and they are known to the average person. Keep in mind that you should
choose a firm that can be sufficiently analyzed within the scope of this project. Then,
introduce the following:
a. Name and brief description of the firm
Body
2. Describe in detail the company’s product line in terms of:
a. Product description and usage
b. Factors that determine the demand for products and detail the future outlook of
the demand curve
c. Factors that determine the supply of the products and detail the future outlook of
the supply curve
d. Available substitutes for the product and demand for the same
e. Available complements for the product and demand for the same
f. Is demand for the product elastic or inelastic in the short run? In the long run?
This will require detailed analysis.
g. Is the firm’s production capital-intensive or labor-intensive? Why is technology
important in producing this product? Is there technology that can update or
replace the current usage?
Note that this set of questions requires varying levels of detail. For example, question 2F
(demand elastic or inelastic) has multiple factors for analysis and response and will
therefore require a lengthy explanation. You should also include and explain any
formulas you think would support your analysis.
3. In which of the four market structures does this firm operate? The four structures are:
perfect competition, monopolies, oligopolies, and monopolistic competition. Describe the
attributes of the firm’s market that show why that is the relevant market structure.
Conclusion
4. In your opinion, what are the long-term prospects for the firm? What changes do you
think should be made in order to become even more profitable? You should explain how
the aforementioned issues addressed in the body of your essay support your
understanding of the company’s future prospects, and how they support your
suggestions for how the company may be made more profitable in the future. Be sure to
defend your assessment with relevant research.
