he paper should be 2-3 pages long and typed double spaced(approximately 500 words). For

writing the paper select a company that you currently work foror plan to work for in the future.

Choose a for-profit company that operates in the market economysince a non-profit or a

government organization do not normally operate through themarket mechanism. In the paper

address the following:

1. A short description of the company focusing on its history,what goods and services it

provides, and who are its customers.

2. The market structure in which the company operates (fourmarkets are possible as discussed

in class) with a justification of why you chose that marketstructure

3. The strategy the company should pursue to maximize itsprofits given its market structure.

Once the company is selected, the most important aspect is todiscuss the required issues

in your own words. However, try to include some relevanteconomic terminologies learned in

class in that discussion. I shall be looking at both structureas well as content while grading the

paper. The paper should have a separate cover page and includeyour name and Course Number

in that cover page. Then, in a new page begin with anintroduction, followed by the main body,

and finally a conclusion in sequence. There should be a separatereference page with the list of

references. The 2-3 paged requirement applies only to the maincontent portion (introduction-

main body-conclusion) and the cover page and reference pages donot count towards them.

The introduction and the conclusion can be one paragraph each.In the introduction also

include a one or two sentence description of what is beingdiscussed in the paper. Then discuss

the topic in the main body of the paper in a number ofparagraphs. The conclusion will

summarize the main paper along with any other observations youmay have about the topic. It

may help to organize your writing if you use some sub-headingsfor the paragraphs. All papers

should have at least three references one of which may be yourprescribed text. You may use any

style APA/MLA etc. you may be familiar with for references butdo so consistently for all the

references. That also applies to references from the internet.Wikipedia, Investopedia, and a few

other similar websites are a good and ready source ofinformation in the internet and you may

access them for researching any topic. However, please, do notuse Wikipedia or Investopedia as

a primary reference. You may find a number of primary referencesused by Wikipedia while it

explains the concept and these primary references, if you canaccess them, may be cited.

Since this is a paper on an economic topic, you are welcome touse graphs, charts etc. to

supplement the discussion and highlight major issues. Use ofshort tables with numbers is also

permitted. You may use quotations, but it should not exceed 10%of the paper. If you find long

quotations that may be relevant, I would rather like to see youparaphrase them in your own

words instead of quoting them verbatim as it shows yourunderstanding of the issue discussed.
