You do not need to respond to your classmates. However, each response provided should be thorough in explanation and no less than 100 words each.
Question #1 There are benefits of conducting a thorough review of existing literature before writing a research proposal. What is your opinion of Kirby’s approach to selecting articles for the literature review? Explain your opinion.
Kirby is conducting a literature review in preparation for his study of “expectations regarding the sharing of financial and practical responsibilities among married and cohabiting couples in which both partners are between the ages of 20 and 29.” Conducting a keyword search on “couples” and “responsibility,” Kirby has generated a lengthy list of research articles. He decides to shorten the list of potential articles by eliminating all articles that were not published in prestigious research journals. He will include all the remaining articles in his literature review.
Question # 2 As you navigate through your journey as a novice researcher respond to this question.
You are reading a literature review written by a novice researcher in your field. You notice that the researcher seems to have relied heavily on an Internet search while conducting the literature review. Your hunch is supported when you glance at the reference page and find a long list of Internet addresses. What goes through your mind regarding the quality and adequacy of the literature review in this situation?

Comparative Advantage:
How do individuals evaluate opportunity costs to
make business decisions? Explain what role the production-possibility
frontier (PPF) has in the decision-making process.
Explain how comparative advantage impacts a firm’s
decision to engage in trade. Would a business’s decision to
trade cause a change to its PPF? Provide specific reasoning to support
your claims.

with and without policy interventions). Then, answer the following
questions in the paragraphs below the figures:
What impact do policy interventions have on the supply
and demand equilibrium for a product? Provide specific examples.
What are the determinants of price elasticity of
demand? Identify at least three examples. Based on the outcome of the
simulation, explain how price elasticity can impact pricing decisions and
total revenue of the firm.

Production, Entry, and Exit: Discuss the Production, Entry, and Exit. Then, answer
the following questions in the paragraphs below the figure:
Analyze a business owner’s decision making regarding
whether to enter a market. For example, what factors determine the market
entry and exit. Use economic models to support your analysis.
How does a business owner applying the concept
of marginal costs decide how much to produce? For
example, how do you determine how many hours to work each day? Use
economic models to explain.
How does the impact of fixed costs change
production decisions in the short run and in the long run? Use the
average-total-cost (ATC) model included in the module reading chapters to
demonstrate this impact.
Market Structures:
Discuss the market structures (Price Discrimination and Cournot). Then, do
the following in the project template:
Complete Table 4.1 as a reference guide for your
business partner. The table should compare the
attributes of each of the four listed market structures.

their prices? Use specific examples from the textbook to support your
