Assistance with select Finance and Economics Topics

Located near the campus of Fairmont State University, Professor of Business and doctoral student, Jason Frazer combines his passions of higher education and the creation of media to create segmented learning micro-units.

These micro-units can be reviewed individually to brush up on a particular topic, or can be combined into a knowledge chunk to better grasp the more difficult concepts in basic business finance and economics.

Knowledge Base

Business Finance

This is where the basics of money are learned. The beginning of topics cover a broad swatch of business basics such as: the goal of the firm, guiding principles, organization type, hierarchy, liability, and tax responsibility. The last “chunk” of information culminates in major capital investment decisions.

Macro and Microeconomic Principles

Each of the two forms of Economics begins with the relevant foundations including: trade-offs, opportunity costs, incentives, and specialization. Extra focus is spent on the understanding of demand and supply curves, non-price determinants of supply and demand, equilibrium, shortage, surpluses, price controls, and taxation. After this is understood, Macroeconomics investigates the key principles of major economies like: GDP, CPI and inflation, Monetary and Fiscal Policy, and the Business Cycle. Microeconomics reviews the primary mechanisms of market structures focusing on Perfect Competitions, Monopolies, Monopolistic Competition, and Oligopolies and Game Theory.
