📖 1. Microeconomic Reasoning

🔑 Key Concepts & Definitions

  • Microeconomic reasoning (Lorentz / Boltz, 2025): The process by which economic agents make decisions based on analyzing costs, benefits, and constraints at an individual level, aiming to optimize their objectives within given limitations.

  • Decisions based on opportunity cost (Lorentz / Boltz, 2025): The principle that the true cost of choosing one option over another is the value of the next best alternative foregone, emphasizing the importance of trade-offs in decision-making.

  • Rationality (Lorentz / Boltz, 2025): The assumption that agents make consistent, goal-oriented choices by systematically comparing options and selecting the one that maximizes their objectives, such as utility or profit.

  • Marginal reasoning (Lorentz / Boltz, 2025): The analytical approach focusing on incremental changes—evaluating the additional benefits or costs associated with consuming or producing one more unit of a good or service to inform optimal decisions.
