ecn210 microeconomics principles week 8 portfolio project the economic analysis of amazon
Hi,
I need some assistance with writing a research paper on the economic analysis of the company Amazon. This paper requires getting information from the annual report (10-K) and answering the following questions:
- Identify background information on the company, including the company name, ticker (stock) symbol, GICS Sector, and GICS Sub Industry.
- Summarize the products the company produces and sells, and who their target customers are.
- Describe factors that could shift the demand curve for the company’s product(s) (see the risk factors discussed in the K-10).
- Describe factors that could shift the supply curve for the company’s product(s) (see the risk factors discussed in the K-10).
- Describe whether the company’s product(s) would be expected to have an elastic demand or inelastic demand.
- Discuss the firm’s profitability with an explanation of the difference between accounting profit and economic profit.
- Examine the costs the company incurs and discuss whether the majority of costs are fixed or variable in nature.
- Describe the market structure that best describes the market the firm is in (see Modules 5 and 6).
- Analyze how the market structure affects the profitability and pricing power of the firm
I have started an outline and gathering some information on the topic.
