MBA201A is "Economic Analysis for Business Decisions", a required and foundational 1st year MBA course, which is affectionately known as "MBA Micro". I was the graduate student instructor for the Blue and Gold cohorts in the fall of 2010.
About This Page
It was, and still is, my intention to use this page to provide a wiki-book of course notes for MBA201A. However, until I have the time to make this happen, this page will just host the four main handouts for the course. These handouts are missing certain useful material, especially:
- An introduction to the mathematics needed for MBA201A (though some material is in the Monopoly Pricing Handout).
- Notes on second degree price discrimination for both discrete valuations and continous demand (the later was excluded from the teaching material for the 2010 Fall term)
- Example questions for students to try
The Handouts
The handouts are provided in the order that the material was taught. Note that other instructors may teach sections in different orders. To a weak degree the handouts are cummulative. Please inform the author of any errors or typos.
The handouts:
- The Option Value Handout (9 pages)
- The Monopoly Pricing Handout (10 pages)
- The Advanced Pricing Handout (14 pages)
- The Game Theory Handout (10 pages)
