How BUSI 620 Week 2 Homework 2 is graded

Liberty grades Homework 2 with the rubric attached to the assignment in Canvas, worth 80 points in the published guide. That is about 8% of the course's 1,010 points. Open the rubric before you draft and read across each row: the top column describes what full credit looks like, and the gap between columns tells you what costs points.

Course grades in BUSI 620 use Liberty's point scale: an A is 940 to 1010 points of the course total. Missing the length or source minimum usually costs points on several rows at once, which is why the checklist below starts with them.

Timing in the published guide: Each course week begins on Monday morning at 12:00 a.m. (ET) and ends on Sunday night at 11:59 p.m. (ET). The final week ends at 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Friday. Check the due dates in your Canvas section, which govern.

The BUSI 620 Week 2 method, step by step

  1. Set up the data before the write-up

    Work through the Homework 2 calculations or software steps first and save the output. The written part interprets those numbers, so they have to be right before you explain them.

  2. Show the method

    Name the method and the reason it fits. One or two sentences are enough, but they must be there.

  3. Report the results plainly

    Give the key figures in a labeled table and mention each in the text.

  4. Interpret in the context of the question

    Explain what the results mean for the decision or question in BUSI 620, in plain terms. The interpretation is where the analysis points are earned.

  5. Name the limits

    State what the analysis cannot tell you: assumptions, data limits, or what would change the answer.

  6. Submit the files the guide asks for

    Submit every file requested and check that formulas, output and the write-up agree (Not set in the guide; answer every assigned question).

Compute each elasticity with the formula, state whether demand is elastic or inelastic, then say what it means for revenue if price changes. Show the formula, the numbers substituted and the result, then add a sentence explaining what the answer means for a manager. Partial credit depends on visible work.

A topic angle that works

Chapter 3 covers quantitative demand analysis: own-price, cross-price and income elasticities, and how they guide pricing and revenue decisions.

BUSI 620 Week 2, sample worked problem

If a 10% price increase cuts quantity demanded by 25%, own-price elasticity is minus 2.5, so demand is elastic and raising price will lower total revenue. A cross-price elasticity of 0.8 with a rival's product means the goods are substitutes: a 10% rise in the rival's price raises our sales by about 8%.
