Economics: It's not just whats' in your wallet

The best way to know what you can expect in the course is to look at an example of the type of work you could be expected to do when you emerge from the course. So, if you are up to it, why not work your way through the evaluation of the President of a leading university-an exercise in which we employ a number of the skills that you will develop in the course.

Slippery Slope University hired their president six years ago to help improve the revenue side of the University's finances. The president's track record is presented below:

	Revenue($millions)
1991	100
1992	90
1993	92
1994	95
1995	98
1996	101

Would you vote for an extension of the president's contract? Has this person succeeded?

The answer is?
