Adam Smith's Theory of Value
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. This research paper delves into the conflict of Adam Smith's Theory of Value. When Adam Smith set forth his own Theory of Value it was vastly different from the idealistic view of his forebears. The term "value", in Smith's theory, corresponds largely to what is usually termed "use-value" - the value-in-use of some good.

Adam Smith: Theory Of Growth And International Trade
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. Adam Smith, considered quite universally to be the father of contemporary economics (Rouse, 1995), grew up under the watchful eye of his widowed mother and attended college on a scholarship. Clearly immersed in the principles of philosophy and logic, he ultimately turned his talents toward economics where he cultivated his popular - if not greatly debated - economic theory of growth and international trade as being founded upon the division of labor, a reality Smith (1991) claims is integral to the quest for wealth and the growth of a society. The greatest turning point in his life is unarguably when he published Wealth of Nations, which inevitably cast him 'as the fountainhead of contemporary economic thought' (The Library of Economics and Liberty, 2002).

Altering Monetary Policy
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing a given set of hypothetical economic conditions, analyzing the conditions individually and in the presence of other, related indicators. The Federal Reserve’s action should be to reduce interest rates to encourage business expansion and consumer spending.

Businesses will need to produce more of each, and likely will need to hire additional workers. If these have been out of the labor force for some time they will increase personal spending too, contributing to greater growth of GDP. Regardless of where interest rates are, the government needs to control its own spending. Bibliography lists 3 source.
