The international simulation report is a compilation of the findings and outlines that reflect advantages and limitations of international trade as a whole. In reviewing the international trade simulation we can find that there are four distinct points that represent the elements that make up the report. I will be reviewing each point in depth along with providing a compare and contrast of the influences and advantages. I will finally conclude with a discussion that sheds light on the issues

Report on Capitalism Simulation Game On February 20th‚ 2014‚ in Values in the Workplace‚ we played a game simulating capitalism. The goal of the game was to get into teams; each team had a certain amount of the same resource. These resources could be traded and bought from one another‚ with a goal of creating “Widgets”. These widgets are then bought from the consumer. The team‚ who ends up with the most amount of money‚ wins the game. The strategies that arose during the simulation were common to strategies

The Atlantis simulation shows the platform of supply and demand in a real estate/rental market. This simulation shows what causes the fluctuations in supply and demand from the need to increase occupancy rate to an influx of new residents due to growth within the local economy. These factors are direct implications of the constant changes happening to supply and demand within the Atlantis community. When occupancy is low it shows there is an increased supply of apartments available to rent. When

and I partook in the MEGA business simulation‚ a game in which teams take over different struggling car manufacturers in order to right the ship and compete against each other. The simulation consisted of a set amount of periods which I saw as turns in a game. For each turn we had to make decisions on what to do with your team’s company. These decisions were then put in an excel sheet and the results were often known the next day. The goal of business simulations is to learn while also having fun
