Managerial ECONOMICS For social enterprise — TERM PAPER
Word Length: 1,500 words (excluding references and appendices)
This grade is worth 90% of my term grade for Econ unfortunately, so it really has to be great.
(FYI This is not so straightforward… I am getting my masters in ‘social entrepreneurship and innovation’, so all of the economic theory is interpreted through a social impact lense. I would love to find someone who is well-versed on social accounting/social enterprise if possible. If that makes it too complicated though, I understand. I have additional documents, Digital textbook material (that the professor wrote himself), case studies and an online lecture or two I can send you. I know it might be a lot of research and reading, but I am so lost on the economics front, that I don’t even know where to begin or which question to choose! Also! Last thing, our professor loves graphs, and I know we need to put a couple in the paper.)
(Side note: I am also looking for someone to write my accounting paper — same thing: accounting but with a focus on SROI, social value creation.) It’s due the same day/ it’s Technically part 2 of the Econ paper, w/ same word limit etc. I also have a ton of material I could send over for that too. Please let me know if you know of anyone who might be a good match.
Please let me know your thoughts, thank you!
Kind regards,
Alex
