August 2024 Rent Report: Rents Slowly Rising Nationwide, but Falling in Sun Belt

Instructions
For term paper #2, you are required to pick a current (“hot”, widely discussed) economic event that relates to the material (topic) we have covered or will cover in this course.
This paper has to show your ability to apply the concepts you have learned in this class to the analysis of current events.
Stay away from purely theoretical articles. Rather, find an article that is talking about today’s (current) examples or applications of this topic.
Make sure to choose a topic from MICROeconomics, not MACROeconomics. For example, you can not write about such macroeconomic topics as unemployment, inflation, recession, exchange rates, immigration, etc.

You can’t use price discrimination OR the division of labor as your concepts of interest.
Research and find a NEWS ARTICLE that covers the event you have chosen. You can use an article online or offline from any reputable source. Make sure to provide a reference and a full link to this article in your paper.
Then, supplement it with another 2-3 sources that relate to the same econ concept as your main news article of choice.
Do not choose Wikipedia, Investopedia, and other similar online resources as your articles for the paper.
Write a review of the article and integrate course concepts into your review.
Relate your current event/news to as many different concepts that we have learned in the class, as you can.
Your paper should be structured as follows:
Cover page (add the title of the paper, your name, the course name, the school’s name, instructor’s name, and the date)
Introduction (discuss which topic you chose and why it interested you)
A Brief Summary of the Chosen Article
Discussion of How This Article Relates to the Topic Discussed in the Class (this should be the largest part of your paper). Pick and choose as many econ-related concepts covered in the class, as you can.
Conclusion
References
Make sure to break your paper down into sections and title each of the sections of your paper.
Do NOT include an abstract since it is mostly used in serious research papers, publishable papers, dissertations, etc. rather than in short student papers.
Please note that the best practice in academia is to use at least 3 sources in each of your essays. Such sources as Wikipedia, Investopedia, Study.com, etc., should NOT be used in your paper because they are not peer-reviewed and, therefore, might not be accurate or credible enough.
Complete your essay in a Microsoft Word document in APA, 7th Edition format.
Please note that a minimum of 700 words (excluding the cover page and references) for your essay is required.
Your work will automatically be submitted to Turnitin for plagiarism check and AI generation check.

Now that we have examined the motivations, benefits, and issues surrounding so-called “free trade,” it’s time to ask the question: “Free from what?” Module 4 explores attempts by governments to constrain trade. Not surprisingly, we will find that economists are generally skeptical about the specific benefits of tariffs, quotas, and export controls and seek to remove or minimize constraints on trade in most instances—but not necessarily all.
Discussion Requirement

Trade barriers
Select a developed country that has implemented a tariff, and a developing country that manufactures products that are impacted by that same tariff. The current US and China tariff “war” cannot be used since these are the two largest economies in the world. Investigate the economic impact of the trade barrier on the developing country and the developed country. Would you recommend that the developed country eliminate the tariff? Explain your reasoning.
Directions:
Discuss the concepts, principles, and theories from your textbook. Cite your textbooks and cite any other sources if appropriate.
Your initial post should address all components of the question with a 600 word limit.
Learning Outcomes
Differentiate the different types of tariff and non-tariff trade barriers.
Judge the welfare effects of tariff trade barriers.

Learning goal: I’m working on a economics writing question and need explanation and answer to help me learn.
In what ways do government policies, such as taxation and subsidies, influence market behavior and economic efficiency, and how can these policies be designed to balance the goals of economic growth, income distribution, and environmental sustainability?

Recession, Inflation, Unemployment, Growth,….what does it all mean? Who Cares? Do You?
Ends Sep 29
Must post first.
NOTE: This is an unintended duplication of the previous discussion topic. I will revise this and bring it to what it was supposed to be. For now, please do no participate in this discussion assignment. Concentrate on the “it’s the economy, stupid” forum. Thanks and I do apologize for this oversight.
We are in the midst of a historic election–a former president running against a sitting president.
In “your opinion,” what is the most important issue in the upcoming election? What do “you” pay the most attention to when hearing each of the two candidates talk?
As far as the economy is concerned, please select two macroeconomic valuables which you think are the best indicators of “your concerns,” and explain how you think each of the two presidential candidates has addressed them and/or planning to address them.
Please be respectful of everyone’s opinion. We can disagree and that is part of the beauty of the United States political and social structure. Respecting each others’ opinions, even when we do not agree with them, is also part of the beauty.
Be respectful.
Voice your opinion and then respond to others, in a respectful manner. If you agree with one of your peers, expand and support their comments even more. If you don’t agree with someone’s opinion, explain why and provide alternatives.
In all cases, remember that your opinion is important but it is “your opinion.” Support yourself with research and cite sources that support your comments. Always cite these sources and never copy and paste.
