MARKET ANALYSIS: The use of the market model to examine economic phenomenon involving demand, supply, prices, and exchanges. The simplest market analysis involves identifying equilibrium price and quantity, which is the point of intersection between the demand and supply curves. Some of the more useful market analysis, however, involves comparative static analysis of shifts in either the demand or supply curves, or both curves simultaneously. Other market analysis examines the consequences of price ceilings, price floors, and taxes.

BEIGE MUNDORTLE
Your compete MICRO*scope for today
You are the type of person who spends a lot of time ponder life's small questions, such as why yield signs are shaped liked triangles. Family and friends call you when they need a flat tire changed, but not when they want to attend the theater. Today, you are likely to spend a great deal of time wandering around the downtown area wanting to buy either a how-to book on meeting people or clothing for your pet iguana. Be on the lookout for cardboard boxes. You should consider shopping at stores or businesses beginning with the letter H, but do not buy any products with a serial number or product code containing the number 438237. Your preferred shopping venue is discount super centers. Your special symbol is the period (.).
Is this You?
As a Beige Mundortle, you are somewhat dull, somewhat boring, somewhat lusterless. You don't particularly care and you don't really care that you don't care. You know that you have a somewhat drab, lackluster life, and that's just fine with you. You shop when you need to, buy what you have to, and get on with your life. It's just another day, another expenditure. You don't really care to spend a lot of time shopping, but you don't really care to spend a lot of time doing much of anything. Life goes on. So what? Who cares?
This isn't me! What am I?

MARGINAL COST CURVE A curve that graphically represents the relation between the marginal cost incurred by a firm in the short-run product of a good or service and the quantity of output produced. This curve is constructed to capture the relation between marginal cost and the level of output, holding other variables like technology and resource prices constant. Three related curves are average total cost curve, average variable cost curve, and average fixed cost curve.

Fact 6: Our Unknown EconomyDr. Nova Cain, DDS, has her office in the mini-mall just north of city hall. You know the sort of mini-mall. It has a branch of Interstate OmniBank, Smilin' Ted's All-Comers Insurance Agency, an auto parts store, a branch of the public library, and four chiropractors. Dr. Cain's location near the Shady Valley City Hall is most fortunate. One of my back molars is beginning to shoot sharp pains through my eyeball, into my brain, and out the back of my head. I've been meaning to stop by for a cleaning and check up, but, well, the thought of sharp needles and high-speed drills grinding away large portions of my teeth convinced me that other activities were more important. Now, however, just as we're trying to trek through the complexities of the economy, that back molar has decided to throb incessantly. It's best if I stop in and let the kind and (hopefully) gentle Dr. Cain check it out. Guess what? ROOT CANAL!
