FOR THE INSTRUCTOR

Cases

In addition to the Time Warner case, nearly a dozen full length cases that were prepared to accompany Managerial Economics and Business Strategy. These cases complement the textbook by showing how real-world businesses use tools like demand elasticities, markup pricing, third-degree price discrimination, bundling, Herfindahl indices, game theory, and predatory pricing to enhance profits or shape business strategies. The cases are based on actual decisions by companies that include Microsoft, Heinz, Visa, Staples, American Airlines, Sprint, and Kodak. Expanded teaching notes and solutions for all of the cases—including the Time Warner case—are also provided.

PowerPoint Slides

Thoroughly updated and fully editable PowerPoint presentations with animated figures and graphs, prepared by Patrick Scholten of Bentley University, make teaching and learning a snap. For instance, a simple mouse click reveals the firm's demand curve. Another click reveals the associated marginal revenue curve. Another click shows the firm's marginal cost. A few more clicks and students see how to determine the profit-maximizing output, price, and maximum profits. Animated graphs and tables are also provided for all other relevant concepts (like Cournot and Stackelberg equilibrium, normal form and extensive form games, and the like).

Solutions Manual

We have prepared a solutions manual that provides detailed answers to all end-of-chapter problems, all of which have been class-tested for accuracy.

Test Bank

An updated test bank, prepared by the authors, offers well over 1,000 multiple-choice questions categorized by learning objectives, AACSB learning categories, Bloom's taxonomy objectives, and level of difficulty.
