You will be conducting research for an industry of your choice (examples of industries would be fast food restaurants, cell phones, car manufacturers, service industry...etc) and providing analysis on how the economy is doing. You are going to act as a consultant and provide economic research using 2 to 3 different data indicators/points. You are going to find two relevant economic data indicators (examples, unemployment rate, inflation rate, employment rate, GDP, producer price index....etc) that are relevant to your industry and evaluate how the industry is going to be doing in the next 6 months given the economic data and forecasts that you have evaluated.
You are going to be consulting with the CEO to give him your predictions and what he should plan on doing in his job given the current economic situation. Make sure that you are clear and concise with the data indicator that you selected and why you selected it. You will need to make sure to focus on how the data indicator will focus on the industry that you selected and the decisions that businesses will be facing in the upcoming months with your advice.
You should plan ahead to ensure that you submit your paper 1 to 2 days early, just in case anything comes up. You must also use APA format in your paper as part of the requirement. With your APA formatting, I will be focused on your running header, title page, reference page, and in-text citations. Your task for this assignment is to find an article on any macroeconomic topic. You are required to find an article that is relevant to macroeconomics and make an argument in your analysis using appropriate economic terminology. Make sure you are referencing all appropriate sources in APA format. All sources have to be academic related as wilkipedia and investopedia are not academic related sources.
