Ok thanks for that. If you don't mind me asking how do you structure your 25 mark essays in economics?

I am having really trouble with 25 mark essays?

I keep getting 9 or 10/25 for every essay
Is there any good structures that you know?

Many thanks


Could you message me one, I can tell you what you need to improve on? If not I can try explain it but it would be easier.
Can someone please attach/upload some AQA ECON1 notes please ??

Thank you :smile::biggrin:

P.S. How come OCR data response questions are easier than AS AQA Data Response ?? :confused:

Hi,

Could someone please tell me why the answer to the Jan 2010 paper, question 4 is B?

http://store.aqa.org.uk/qual/gce/pdf/AQA-ECON1-W-QP-JAN10.PDF

I thought that as its inelastic, QD will only fall by a little? But the answer says that consumers will spend more?

Thanks :smile:

the answer is d because quantity supplied is 10000and demanded is 6000! This means that there is excess supply of 4000! This will a be a cost on the government!

As it is provided at 18 pounds you do 18*4000= 72000 which means its d


Thanks very much :smile:

Yes you are right in saying that Qd will fall! But only by a little! Inelastic means that demand is not very responsive to a change in price so this means that at a higher price consumers will purchase the sa,e amount or SLIGHTLY less but at a higher price leading to a general increase as demand will fall but price will rise by MORE

Ohh I don't think I worded the above very well! Just to say that it's a an increase in total amount SPENT not the amount demanded!

I see so the consumers will still by more or less the same amount and thus the amount spent by them will increase if the price is higher. Thank you, I understand now :smile:
