Project Part 2 (PP2)
Project Part 2 (PP2) consists of performing application-oriented exercises wherein the specific economic principles learned in this course are put to practical use. You must translate your ideas into economic analysis using the specific economic theory and economic terms contained in the TCOs covered in the course and demonstrate that you are understanding and utilizing material from text chapters covered up to this point in the course to receive full credit on the assignment.
You are being asked to submit a report containing responses to three exercises. Exercises 1, 2, and 3 entail a choice of three textbook questions out of a list of possible alternatives.
Select any three out of the following questions from the text:
·
Chapter 15, Question 11
· Chapter 15, Question 14
· Chapter 16, Question 5
· Chapter 16, Question 6
· Chapter 16, Question 11
· Chapter 25, Question 7
· Chapter 25, Question 11
· Chapter 25, Question 14
· Chapter 26, Question 8
· Chapter 26, Question 9
· Chapter 26, Question 12
Discussion
Any questions, comments, or discussion about PP2 should take place in the Q & A forum area of the weekly Discussion area of the course.
Reporting
All project submissions should be prepared as Word documents suitable for electronic transmission. Your PP2 report should consist of precisely five numbered pages. The first page is a cover sheet having on it only your name, course name, and number (Business Economics GM545), the academic term, and your e-mail address. After that, the response to each of the three reported exercises should be on a separate page. On each page, state the chapter and question number before answering it. Do not print the full question, as that would take up valuable space. Just list the chapter and question number.
Page 5 is your References or Works Cited Page. This does not replace in-text citations (with quotation marks or paraphrasing) or footnotes.
Use double spacing for your response; your overall response to any exercise should not exceed one page in length (including the problem statement). Font size is also optional, as long as it is reasonable — 10-pt fonts and 1/2 inch margins should be the minimum used.
Do not include a table of contents in your report. In all cases, full marks can be earned only by providing appropriate rationales and support for your answers. If calculations are involved in drawing conclusions, they must be shown.

Important: Please Read!
Be sure to post the full URL and the date accessed if the source is the Web for anything you extract from a website for this course, (i.e. papers, discussions, quizzes, etc). Remember that to copy text from a website and not cite the quotation is considered plagiarism and is a very serious matter.
Remember that any time you use exact data, figures, or words from a source, you must provide an in-text citation or footnote superscript from your source. Putting the url at the top or bottom is insufficient.
Plagiarism is a violation of the Academic Integrity Code of this institution and will not be tolerated. The plagiarism policy applies to every aspect of DVU course work including discussions, exams, quizzes, essays, assignments, etc. It is important that students fully cite any text that they apply to their work.
If you copy from, rely on, or paraphrase from your text or from any other source, you must include in-text citations. For any source other than your text, you must also include the proper reference material including the full URL and date accessed if the source is the Web. Failure to do so is a violation of DeVry Academic Standards and will mean a zero for your assignment and an investigation of plagiarism by the academic integrity committee.
To learn more about avoiding plagiarism in your work, see the “How to Avoid Plagiarism” tutorial in the Syllabus.
To support DeVry Online’s commitment to academic integrity, your instructor now has the ability to check for plagiarism in student assignments and discussion posts through the use of turnitin.com, a nationally known plagiarism prevention system. Through turnitin, assignments and discussion posts submitted to turnitin by your instructor will be compared against material in three primary databases:
1. Both a current and extensively archived copy of the publicly accessible Internet;
2. Millions of commercial pages from books, newspapers, and journals;
3. Tens of millions of student papers already submitted to turnitin.
More information on turnitin can be found at
