A2 OCR Economics F583 2016

I didn't do the paper and different students find different parts of the syllabus easier. To get high marks on question 4 it requires more than just a few keywords from A2 but if you find policies easy then it was a good choice for you.

I'm thinking 47 for an A

i wonder if they reward higher than 18 since i am always capped on 18ish marks for the essays. and 13-14.... out of 15...although my teacher refuses to give anyone full marks :/

I am assuming you are referring solely to your teacher marking. 18 out of 20 is lack of a developed conclusion and 13 or 14 may indicate limited application. If your answer is correct and you meet the criteria you will get high marks.

yeah i am referring to my school teacher's marking. actually i predicted pretty much all the questions apart from definition questions so i am hoping for an A* on f585....and prolly high A or near A* in f583 although section A wasn't as good as section B. did u do f583 or f584? how was it? what do you expect?

Can someone tell me what that cost question was asking again? Think I messed it up?

I didn't take the papers, well done with your exams

I think the questions were:

1a. Calculate the cost of each European game [2]
Answer: 2. something million a game

b. Explain the difference between the average total cost and the marginal cost of broadcasting major football matches. [3]

c. Apart from TV Sport licenses, explain one Barrier to entry for Sports Broadcasters [3]

d. Using the theory of economic rent, analyse why top Premier League footballers receive high wages [4]

e. Comment on the extent to which selling the TV Licences to BT and SKY cause Market failure [5]

f. To what extent is the Sports Broadcasting industry a Monopoly [8]

Essays:

2a.

b.

3a.
Factors which affect the elasticity demand of labour

b.

4a.
Explain how LMF impacts the Labour Market [15]
b.
To what extent does government intervention solve the problems arisen from Labour Market Failure?[20]
(something like that)

for 1c could I put vertical integration i.e. the cost of supplies required for production (for example cost of cameras and technical equipment) as another barrier to entry

A monopoly is 100% market share, these were two firms in the market and so is an oligopoly/duopoly
