Managerial economics uses tools to analyze economic variables and their interrelationships. These tools include marginal analysis and optimization techniques. Economic variables like supply, demand, prices, and costs are interdependent and subject to change. Models use bivariate or multivariate analysis to understand relationships between one or more dependent and independent variables, though real-life data is complex. Optimization techniques help managers maximize profits by understanding how profits change in response to price, cost, sales and other factors.

• D depends on P, and P depend on D • Borrowing depends on r, and r depends on borrowing • Profit depends on price, cost and sales Limitation • Large data/long series in real life • Cannot be expressed simply in a table or diagram • No precise decisions • Bi-variate: one dependent variable, and one independent variable • Multi-variate: One dependent, several independent variables 2.
