Question Description

Create research questions based on a topic covered in class that interest you. Research and find answers to those questions by using articles from current or past events from any major publication (electronic or print edition) to be your research references. Articles that appear in economic journals or business magazines such as The Economist are good resources. In addition, articles that appear in blogs or newspapers are good sources for further research. Several links to good references are available under the Content and the Announcement section on the class website as well as a sample and guildlines for your research.
The objective of the paper is to summarize, analyze, critique, support (or question) the articles, and relate the articles to your research questions. The paper must show an analysis of a real world situation using economics concepts, framework, and theories to suggest such as what the problems are, why there are the problems, how to fix the problems, what the pros and cons of each solution are, and how it will affect each group of people.

    • Remember: Your assignment is to write a research paper, NOT a dictionary or a section of a textbook or a newspaper article or a Wikipedia. Use economics theories and concepts to analyze real world economic problems.
    • Each paper must have a minimum of 750 words but should not over 1,200 words excluding title, quotes, and references. A paper between 700-749 words will receive a maximum of a “C+” or lower. A paper below 700 words will receive a maximum of a “C” or lower depending on a quality of a paper.
    • Submit in Doc, Docx, or RTF format only. Any other format will not be graded.
    • Paper#1 should cover a topic from the first half of the course.

Question Description

Post your thorough and complete answers to any two of the following scenarios. Provide the scenario number in your answer.
Set 1
A secretary employed by a U.S. aircraft dealership regularly works 9 am – 5 pm, Monday through Friday. The secretary’s duties include filling in the blanks in all of the various form documents needed to close aircraft sales and being present during closings to type up any changes that may arise. Sometimes, closings are not completed until after 5 pm. This most often happens on Fridays. When that happens, the secretary is allowed to come to work later the following workday morning to compensate for having worked late to help finish closing the sale.

  • Is the employer in compliance with the law? Explain.
  • If this is a violation, what are the possible consequences to the employer?

Set 2
South Carolina is an employment at will state. Management of an aerospace manufacturing plant located there learns the identities of a half-dozen of the company’s machinists who are surreptitiously circulating authorization cards among their co-workers in an effort to become represented by a union.

  • Is the company running any legal risks if it fires those employees without stating a reason for their discharge?
  • Explain.

Set 3
You are a pilot for a low-cost U.S. airline whose pilots are not represented by a union or working under a collective bargaining agreement. As a cost-saving measure, airline management decides to drop the pilots’ health insurance benefit.

  • Can the company legally impose this change immediately and unilaterally, or is it required to first follow some specified procedure?
  • Explain.

Set 4
You are an avionics technician employed by a U.S. airline, all of whose maintenance personnel are represented by a union and working under a union contract with the company. You dislike unions, don’t want to be a member of the union or to have to pay union dues, and don’t want the union representing your interests.

  • Can you opt out and cut your own deal with management?
  • Explain.

Set 5
If you are employed as a pilot by a U.S. company that is not an air carrier, is it to your advantage or disadvantage to be classified by the U.S. Department of Labor as a “learned professional”? Explain.
Set 6
For a nation or union of nations other than the U.S.:

  • Identify laws governing employee minimum wages, compensation, and hours worked
  • Compare and contrast those laws to the U.S. minimum wage & the Fair Labor Standards Act described in the text.
  • Determine whether commercial airlines are governed by the same laws as other businesses or by separate laws.
  • Provide examples of labor strikes that have disrupted either air transportation or aerospace manufacturing there since 2007.
  • Provide hyperlinks to references relied on.
