Welcome to Managerial Economics: Buyer and Seller Behavior. In this course, we will cover the topics of How the Costs of Doing Business Determine Success and Failure, From Cost Structures to Market Supply Curves, and The Economic Outcomes of Competitive Markets. Module 1 introduces the strategic lens of game theory, focusing specifically on Prisoner’s Dilemma situations. This game-theoretic lens helps lay the groundwork for understanding competitive markets, where each market actor, including all buyers and sellers, are doing the best they can to maximize their individual payoffs. Through a simple market simulation and an initial reading of the Adamantium case study, the module then develops intuition for models of supply and demand in competitive markets, including pricing, product allocation, and firms’ cost structures.

Module 2 takes a deep dive into short-run market analysis. With a second reading of the Adamantium case study, Module 2 focuses on how cost structures translate to firm-level and market-level short-run decisions and supply curves, how variable and fixed costs create thresholds on the prices that may sustain short-run and long-run firm profitability, how a firm’s short-run decisions significantly differ from long-run decisions, and how all of this begins to map to a market’s equilibrium.

Module 3 introduces entry (break-even) and exit prices, how they map to a market’s long-run supply curve, and why they are fundamental in determining firm profitability. Through examples, including a conclusion to the Adamantium case study, all of the supply and demand concepts in the course are tied together. The module showcases the predictive power of market analysis in determining where markets are going to go in terms of price, capacity, and firm entry and survival. The module then demonstrates the capstone ability of economic models of supply and demand: interpreting market price paths.
