For this 3-to-5-page assignment, you will identify the economic components of the problem you have chosen. What are the economic implications of the problem? While this is a broad-based question, you will need to address specific topics from the readings and modules to this point. For example, you might describe the issue you’re focusing on in terms of the price and availability (or lack thereof) of a specific good or service; you could give an explicit breakdown of the characteristics of a specific labor market; you could describe a specific market failure related to your issue (incomplete information, monopolies or monopsonies, externalities, or others). 

The most successful assignments will have:

• Identification and brief definition of at least two relevant concepts from the course (these should be properly cited).
• An explanation of how each concept applies to the problem area you have identified. 
• At least four new sources cited using APA format and in-text citations and accompanying works-cited page.
• A sufficiently formal tone for an audience of experts, citizens and policymakers.
• Minimal grammatical and typographical errors
