- Course Title: Microeconomics 2 (Vietnam Foreign Trade University)
- Instructor: Cô Mỹ Hạnh
-
Topics Covered:
- Demand Theory
- Utility Theory
- Definition of Utility (U)
- Characteristics of Utility
- Total Utility (TU) Formula: TU = ΣMU
- Marginal Utility (MU).Formula: MU = ΔTU/ ΔQ
- Relationship between TU and MU (bell shape)
- Relationship between MU and TU (increase, max, decrease)
- Examples with calculations
- Utility Theory
- Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility: (WTP ↓ if we buy more)
- Consumer Surplus (difference between WTP & actual expenditure)
- Calculating equilibrium state and market situations (surplus/shortage)
- Consumer's Preference (complete, transitive)
- Indifference Curve
- Budget Theory
- Examples of bundles (football tickets, film tickets)
- Lagrange Multiplier Method
- Finding optimum
- Consumer utility maximization with budget constraint (U(X,Y) \to max)
- Effects of Income and Price Changes on Demand
- Income Consumption Curve (shifts right/left)
- Normal goods / Inferior goods
- Price Consumption Curve
- Substitution Effect, Income Effect
- Demand characteristics of goods
- Importance of properties and characteristics for consumer purchases
- Examples (sugar, honey)
- Demand estimation and forecasting
- Types of methods (elasticity method)
- Elasticity of demand (Ed)
- Cross-price elasticity of demand (Ed) (comparing goods)
- Normal goods/inferior goods/complements/substitutes
- Decision under Risk and Uncertainty
- Definitions: probability, payoff, states of nature
- Expected value (EV)
- Variance (var(X)): Measure of dispersion of outcomes about the mean
- Standard deviation
- Coefficient of variation (CV) (tool to compare riskiness)
- Theory of production
- Long run production
- Short run production
- Isoquant
- Isocost line
- Market Structures
- Perfect Competition (P=MC, maximizing profit at P=MC)
- Monopolistic Competition
- Oligopoly (Cournot, Squeezy model, Cartel)
- Monopoly(setting price above MC, maximizing profit/revenue)
- Demand Theory
