About this Course

The subject combines economic theories with the tools of mathematics and statistics in the decision making process. Managerial economics focus on the use of microeconomics principles such as supply and demand, elasticities, resource allocation, diminishing returns, economies of scale and pricing strategies, as important tools of analysis for managerial decision makers.
