I have attached my Module Two short paper as well that I completed myself. It was a simulation checkpoint similar to the project if it helps.

Two learning objectives for Unit 5 are to understand the characteristics of monopolistic competition, and the characteristics of oligopoly. Think of an industry or firm that you are familiar with (or that you can research) and explain the characteristics of that firm/industry. Which market structure would you place it in and why? Show that you understand the characteristics of the various market structures.

Using a diagram showing consumer and producer surplus, show generally how consumption taxes impact consumer and producer welfare. Remember to highlight the deadweight loss (DWL). Using a demand and supply diagram, explain what a tax on imports (tariffs) would look like. Explain the difference between the DWL in the graphs
