This week our class covered some differences between micro and macroeconomics, and how the Circular Flow Model works. Provide in detail what distinguishes the role of firms in our macroeconomy.

Consider the following for your topic choice:

• Choose a real-life example of an oligopolistic market structure in the U.S.
• Identify how your firm has been impacted by our macroeconomy.
• Determine if your firm was dependent on the federal government for a bailout and/or restructuring.
• Describe the factors your chosen firm has taken to avoid market failure at a macro-level.
• Examine how your chosen firm affects our macroeconomy regarding economic output.
