Paper , Order, or Assignment Requirements

Pretend you are an economist giving a brief to the Federal Reserve Board of Governors. Your paper should demonstrate your perspective of the current state of the economy and support that belief with data, then give direction as to steps that the Fed and the government could do to help (or avoid hindering) the economy. Your paper should include statistics for various measures of the overall health of the economy and some statistics about individual sectors of the economy that are helping or hurting the overall economy. It may also include statistics about predictions for the future economy. It must demonstrate your understanding of the tools that the Fed and the government can use to direct or impact the economy. Make it concise but thorough. Your paper should be only 2 pages in length (approx 550 words +/- 50 words), double-spaced, Times New Roman 11-point font, without extra space between paragraphs. Take notes throughout the semester on the various measures of the economy and where you find them. You may also want to use the articles you choose for the Discussion Boards (and your classmates' articles) as references for your paper.
