The Supplement Package

The Economics supplement package has been streamlined and updated for the eleventh edition.

Instructor’s Manual

This provides instructors with ideas on how to use the text, includes a description of the text’s special features, a chapter-by-chapter discussion of material new to the eleventh edition, and a rundown of chapter coverage to help them decide what they can skip. Also found here are the answers to the workbook questions and questions for thought and discussion at the end of each chapter of the text, as well as chapter worksheets and worksheet solutions.

Deborah M. Figart and Ellen Mutari of Richard Stockton College of New Jersey took over the Instructor’s Manual for this edition, and have revised each chapter. The Instructor’s Manual provides a rich source of interesting ideas of classroom activities and discussions involving concepts and issues included in the text.

The test bank includes over 9,000 multiple-choice questions, fill-in questions, and problems tagged to Learning Objectives, AACSB categories, and Bloom’s Taxonomy. Jim O’Mealey and Melinda Smith updated the test bank for this edition.
