Case Study 1
You hold a B. A. in radio and television and were sent to a broadcasting network of the Armed Forces Radio and
Television Service. After a 1 month orientation in the overseas area at network headquarters, you were sent to one
of the outlying stations as OIC.
Mr. Henry P. Moon is a GS-12 who has worked with the network for 10 years. As the network engineer, he's always
dependable as well as an efficient manager. But he has the kind of personality that evokes either fear or deep
resentment
The previous network commander felt very strongly that the television station should have rear screen projection
capability. His pet project was to procure the equipment and get it to the station. After 3 years in supply channels,
the equipment package was finally shipped. Mr. Moon's branch, which had ordered the projection system,
unpacked and inspected the equipment, then sent it to your outlying television station
You had heard about the new equipment, but you weren't prepared for the package that arrived. Your studio
could best be described as small, designed for minimal operations. The projector, once assembled, was carried on
a stand that was too tall to clear the studio lights. The projector's minimum focal "throw" was twice the length of
the largest room in his building, and, when it was turned on, the projector took so much electricity it blew every
circuit breaker in the station. The screen was so large it couldn't be assembled inside the building.
it was soon apparent that this projection system was designed for a fully capable commercial television studio, and
not for your station. When you considered the cost of modifying the studio to permit this expensive piece of
equipment to do the job, you quickly decided it wasn't worth it.
When you attempted to return the projection package to network headquarters, you were told, in no uncertain
terms by Mr. Moon, that you would keep the projector, and if you couldn't find a way to use it, you'd probably lose
your job. Mr. Moon's exact words were: "Lieutenant, if you can't put a first-class piece of equipment like this to
work, you probably couldn't manage a one-truck convoy." Obviously you have a problem to deal with!
What will you do?

Suppose an economist believes that the price level in the economy is directly related to the money supply, or the amount of money circulating in the economy. the economist proposes the following relationship: p=a x m - p=price level - m=money supply - a=a composite of other factors, including real gdp, that change very slowly over time. how might an economist gather empirical data to test the proposed relationship between money and the price level? an economist would persuade the federal reserve to change the money supply to various levels, and observe the resulting changes in the price level. unlike researchers in the hard sciences, economists cannot study complex relationships using data. economists do not usually develop theoretical models of the economy but only analyze summary statistics about the current state of the economy. an economist would look for data on past changes in the money supply, and note the resulting changes in the price level
