Congratulations! You entered a sweepstake and won a fantastic prize: a trip around the world. There’s only one catch: you have to study the economy of each country (from the list below) that you visit, and identify the current phase of its business cycle. Be sure to explain your responses.

1. Country 1. While the landscape is beautiful and the weather is superb, a lot of people seem unhappy. Business is slow, and production has dropped steadily for the past six months. Revenues are down, companies are laying off workers, and there’s less money around to spend.

2. Country 2. Here, people are happily busy. Almost everyone has a job and makes a good income. They spend freely, and businesses respond by offering a steady outflow of new products.

3. Country 3. Citizens of this country report that, for a while, life had been tough; lots of people were jobless, and money was tight. But things are getting much better. Workers are being called back to their jobs, production is improving, and people are spending again.

4. Country 4. This place makes you so depressed that you can’t wait to get back home. People seem defeated, mostly because many have been without jobs for a long time. Lots of businesses have closed down, and those that have managed to stay open are operating at reduced capacity.

Exercise 1: Perfect competition and technology

Consider a perfectly competitive market that is currently in a short-run equilibrium, and where each firm in the market is making strictly positive profits. Each firm in the market is using a technology called the type A technology. Suppose that the type A technology is available in some finite number. Passed some threshold, new firms that would enter the market would have to use the type B technology, a different (and inferior) technology. The type B technology results in a higher long run average total cost curve than the type A technology. Given that the market exhibits positive profits in this short run equilibrium, new firms are going to enter the market. Claim: In the long run equilibrium, all firms in the market will be making zero economic profits. As usual, the use of graphs, whenever appropriate, is encouraged.
