PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND THE RUBRIC THOROUGHLY: This is the final submission of an assignment that was broken into 3 parts that I have uploaded in a single PowerPoint. Make the necessary revisions and add the new slides to the current presentation. Notes from the instructor must be taken into account for the final submission.  Instructor Feedback for Milestones 1 and 2: Milestone 1: Analyzes the annual GDP during the time frame to calculate specific growth rates and trends in the U.S. economy, but the analysis is inaccurate or does not provide information in speaker notes. Milestone 2: Explains the impact of the new fiscal policy actions on individuals and businesses within the economy, but is not comprehensive, does not integrate the macroeconomic data and principles, or does not provide information in speaker notes THESE ISSUES MUST BE ADDRESSED IN THE FINAL SUBMISSION. I have not received any feedback for Milestone 3, but if I do receive it before this assignment is complete, I will update through chat. The main revisions need to be made to GDP and Fiscal policy. Also, there need to be 3-4 additional slides discussing foreign trade. These slides must flow seamlessly with the work that has already been done. References must be APA format.   FRED: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/GDP is the only required resource. The following link is a tutorial on how to use FRED:

Price per Feeder Quantity Demanded Quantity Supplied $300 500 1800 270 600 1700 240 700 1600 210 800 1500 180 1000 1400 150 1100 1300 120 1200 1200 80 1300 1100 60 1400 1000 30 1500 900 10 1600 800 Your client has asked that you develop a report addressing the following questions so that you can present these findings to their Board of Directors: Questions: Construct a graph showing supply and demand in the electronic dog feeder market, using Microsoft Excel. How are the laws of supply and demand illustrated in this graph? Explain your answers. What is the equilibrium price and quantity in this market? Assume that the government imposes a price floor of $180 in the feeder market. What would happen in this market? Assume that the price floor is removed and a price ceiling is imposed at $90. What would happen in this market? Now, assume that the price of feeders drops by 50%. How would this change impact the demand for feeders? Explain your answer and reconstruct the graph developed in question one to show this change. Assume that the incomes of the consumers in this market increases. What would happen in this market? Explain your answer and reconstruct the graph developed in question one to show this change. Assume that the number of sellers decreases in this market. What would happen in this market? Explain your answer and reconstruct the graph developed in question one to show this change. Explain the difference between a normal good and an inferior good. Would your answers to question 7 change depending on whether this good is a normal or inferior good? Why? Submission Details: Develop your analysis in Microsoft Excel format.

Bibliography (not included in the word count) 10% Submission Marking Criteria Feedback Your report should be a maximum of 2500 words (+/- 10%) excluding title page, references, and appendices. Sticking to a strict word limit is difficult and an important skill for you to acquire, so make sure that you write in a concise and focused manner. It should be typed font size 12 and 1.5 line spacing and must be presented in portrait format, not landscape. This report is worth 45% of your total grade for this module. An essential feature of the report is to illustrate how theoretical constructs or models can be critically analysed and applied to organisations in practice. You are therefore advised to read widely. In fact, unless you have read and referenced at least 10 discrete references, it is unlikely that you have done sufficient reading (you need to go beyond this to achieve higher marks). Beware of sources from the Internet (no Wikipedia or business balls): apart from reputable and academic references that can be downloaded through the Internet (commonly via the library catalogue); most Internet references are not considered reliable for an academic piece of work. Academic journals generally offer a better source than textbooks. You must use the APA 6th Referencing system.

Macropoland, a country that is a natural gas and oil importer, has a natural rate of unemployment (at the full employment level of GDP) that is about 4.5%, and the long-run average rate of inflation over time has been about 2%. However, during the period 1973-1974, the country experienced an inflation rate of about 15% while simultaneously experiencing unemployment of nearly 13%. At the present time, Macropoland is experiencing very sluggish consumption and investment (a result of a fall in the housing market), and unemployment has again edged up to around 9%. Inflation is very low at 0.4%. Macropoland has just hired you as their economic advisor. You have a big job ahead of you.

Develop a response that includes examples and evidence to support your ideas, and which clearly communicates the required message to your audience. Organize your response in a clear and logical manner as appropriate for the genre of writing.
