perfect competition

SSIAs and inflation
elasticity

Is the SSIA question too obvious? Every second ad on the radio is about them and theyre all over the news. Its almost too obvious that they may be something on them

ya maybe but they could hardly give an Economic exam without asking on the biggest impact on our Economy in years that the SSIA's will bring?

Does anyone know if Labour is predicted? They seem to nearly always throw on a factor of production question.

i was studying it today, and on the top of my page i have written "Labour or Capital - Guaranteed" so obviously thats what my teacher thought so in september.

SSIA's have gotta come up! i don't think the examiners are gonna set out to screw people out of a current topic just for the laugh:D

SSIA'S and inflation and interest rates are the sorta topical things within the Irish economy and european economy. Although the SSIA's are on the radio and everywhere remember that the exam was written a few months back before you could cash and SSIA so in their heinsight they probably didn't realsie its predictability, also its appeared in two mocks.

Personally I dont know a thing about SSIA's an I dont intend to learn about it, im relying 75% on mircomonics but im open for a trip to macronomics if all else failes. Also, is perfect comp guaranteed to come up, the patter on the market structures seems fairly predicable and this year the cycle is on P.C, it seems too easy. Imagine if they gave us 8 macronomics questions, they CAN do that you know, this year seems as good a year as any to do it.:eek:

It's on Wednesday so why bother taking the risk with one market structure or FOP? Just do 'em all.

True True
The SSIA thing could well come up in a quesion on Capital with savings and all that so dont leave out capital.
Perfect Competion and Price Discrimination are the two Markets that havent come up in ages so theyre the two to bank on.
