You are required to analyze the UK energy supply market. You should consider all UK energy companies rather than a specific one, such as E.D.F. Your project should cover the following:
i) The trend in sales over the last 5 to 10 years. You need up-to-date data from sources such as Mintel or Keynote or Ofgem. (10 marks)
ii) Identify the structure of the market, including the main companies involved and their market shares. Other possible points to raise: Are there any significant barriers to entry? Is the market contestable?
Using economic theory show how a typical firm in this industry may set price and output in order to maximize profits.
Also, show how this may differ if a firm chooses to maximize sales revenue. Why may a firm prefer to maximize sales rather than profits? (Hint: you must use theory in this question) (30 marks)
iii) Explain how repeated games in game theory may show the optimum pricing strategy for firms in this industry. (Hint: you must use theory in this question) (25 marks)
iv) Outline the rationale for competition policy. Explain why there have been calls over the last two years for an investigation by the UK competition authority. What action do critics of energy companies propose? (Hint: you must use theory in this question) (10 marks)

This project aims to synthesize and characterize new quaternary perovskite oxide materials which exhibit both ferromagnetic and ferroelectric behaviour. Perovskite oxides have several properties of interest; ferromagnetic and ferroelectric properties are considered among the most important. Of the perovskites the quaternary perovskites are of particular interest for the study of storage media due to the coexistence of ferroelectric and ferromagnetic properties.
This week’s Discussion will focus on program evaluation.
Maritza is a human service professional who works in a program that provides parenting education and support to women who have been incarcerated. Maritza works with these paroled women in a weekly group meeting. She provides the women with information about child development and positive parenting techniques. She also leaves time for the women to discuss, within the group, any specific issues that are troubling them with parenting.
Many of the women have not had regular contact with their children for a long time. Maritza knows that her program is helpful to these women as they often comment to her informally on how much that they have learned. Yet, Maritza must provide “data” to her supervisors that shows that the program is working.
After completing the reading for this week, address the following questions:
1.What information or “data” from her parenting group might be useful to Maritza? Explain your answer.
2.Contrast at least two main differences between an objective perspective and a subjective perspective.
3.What is the importance of research in human services delivery and how will it be useful to you?
4.Is the use of an objective or subjective perspective better when evaluating a human service program? Explain your answer.
