Submodule: Mathematical Economics 2
After successfully completing this module, students will:
- be able to develop linear optimization models from informally described practical planning problems,
- be able to apply the simplex algorithm to solve linear programs independently,
- be able to describe basic concepts of duality theory,
- be able to interpret the results obtained by means of optimization methods,
- be able to describe the link between primal and dual optimization problems,
- be ale to perform a sensitivity analysis for an optimization problem,
- use Excel Solver for modeling and solving economic optimization problems,
- In addition, students will have developed their analytical skills by independently solving practical tasks.
Submodule: Statistics 1
After successfully completing this module, students will:
- be able to describe basic economic concepts of descriptive statistics for univariate and bivariate data analysis,
- select suitable methods for statistical data analysis and apply them independently to specific subjects of study,
- apply concepts for the graphical presentation of empirical data,
- interpret the results obtained from a data evaluation,
- analyze and interpret correlations between characteristics,
- understand possible applications in other fields of business studies and their practice,
Submodule: Mathematical Economics 2
- Introduction to operations research
- Modeling economic planning problems with the help of linear optimization models
- Graphical solution of linear optimization problems
- Properties of linear optimization problems
- Primal simplex algorithm for solving linear programs
- Economic interpretation of results of optimization calculations
- Conducting a sensitivity analysis (using shadow prices and reduced costs).
- Duality and dualization rules
- Dual simplex algorithm
- Connection between primal and dual problem (theorem of complementary slackness)
- Solving a linear optimization problem using Excel Solver
- Economic applications of linear optimization (e.g. in production, logistics, marketing, investment)
Submodule: Statistics 1
- Research methodology and basic concepts
- Classification of statistical features
- Frequency distributions for grouped and ungrouped data
- Graphical representation of univariate data sets
- Description of univariate datasets using measures of location and dispersion
- Bivariate data analysis: Graphical representation of data sets and investigation of the correlation of statistical characteristics (contingency, correlation, rank correlation)
- Regression analysis
Lecture and discussion in a large group using transparencies (projector) and the blackboard (theory and example calculations).
Both submodules (Mathematical Economics 2 / Statistics 1) will be supplemented by exercises and tutorials. A large number of exercise sheets covering the wide range topics in this module will be provided. Afterwards, the solutions will be discussed with the students.
Both the lecture notes and the exercise sheets will be available to students in electronic form.
