    Australia's financial markets oligopolistic?

    also remember that competition in retail banking is not always a good thing. to produce banking competition you need to issue banking licenses. competition may result in innovation, however it leads to risk taking and leveraging in finance, something that tends to result in crises. back when a...

    Help? Multiple choice question

    well i think the only way to solve such a dumb question is to quantify the problem. lets say demand in an economy is 90 things and supply is 100 things, then only 90 things will be consumed. hence the economy shrinks as there is excess productive capacity. in other words ...if there is $90...

    Economic Outlook for the next 12 months?!

    i would talk about international events' effect on business confidence such as the US fiscal cliff, the euro crisis and the china slowdown and the fact that businesses may delay hiring because of the expected demand decreases due to those things.

    Historical investigation

    yes of course media is biased. that is a poor question. also what you are doing is basically a massive source analysis which is rly boring. choose another question fast, and make it about the actual events rather than media bias. i guess that kind of question may be possible when investigating...

    Help!!! :(

    i keep saying, do workbooks (mc and short answer) and practice essays and give to teacher for feedback. making notes is far less important in economics than you might think. i have good notes but i can safely say that they haven't helped me much. what i do before a test is make a list of...

    Economics-anyone else struggling??

    I disagree, try to memorise everything. if you don't, you will fail the short answer section. understanding concepts is easy, if that were what economics is about, everyone would do it. it is about understanding, applying and memorising key terms, definitions and lists. economics is certainly...

    Terms of Trade assessment

    i wouldnt define it, as everyone in the class will know what you're talking about. I think that you should use very limited text because text detracts from powerpoint presentations in economics. I would initially talk about a brief history of what our ToT have looked like, using a good graph and...
