Your grade will be based on the number of points you collect throughout the semester. The total number of points is 100. The points for different tasks are listed below:
1. Presentation 1 (firm history) – 30 pts
2. Presentation 2 (the economic lessons) – 30 pts
3. Final report – 30 pts
4. General participation – 10 pts
A useful book for the "economic lessons" part is "Innovation and Incentives" by Suzanne Scotchmer.
