Gamification of Learning high lights – What The webinar started by a brilliant experiment with those who signed up for the webinar and shared the results of the game. The webinar covered two broad categories of gaming types: simulations and social games. In this paper I was drawn to the first category‚ simulations because of its broad existence and usability

employed. 4. The resources are efficiently employed. 5. The resources are not equally efficient in production of all products. Thus if resources are transferred from production of one good to another‚ the cost increases. In other words marginal opportunity cost increases. The last assumption needs explanation because it determines the shape of the PP curve. If this assumption changes‚ the shape changes. Efficiency in production means productivity i.e. output per unit of an input. Let the input

Another economic principle that can be considered is the demand equation which is also linked to opportunity cost. The demand equation reflects that demand can be influenced by an individual’s income

Q2: What is the maximum amount you would pay for an asset that generates an income of $150‚000 at the end of each of five years if the opportunity cost of using funds is 9 percent? A2: We must determine the PV of the $150‚000 over the 5 years. PV= (150000/1.09^1)+(150000/1.09^2)+(150000/1.09^3) +(150000/1.09^4)+(150000/1.09^5) = $583‚447.69 Therefore‚ if costs exceeded $583
