Decision Making Get back into your groups of three and determine a solution to one of the three scenarios using the second T-chart and the full Decision Making Process worksheet. How did the decision making process change after learning the five step process?

Economic Influences on Decision- Making _________________ changes in the buying power of the dollar, inflation __________________ demand for goods and services ____________________________ total value of goods and services produced within the country ________________ the number of new homes being built These economic factors may influence personal and financial decisions:

Economic Influences on Decision- Making ________________ the cost of borrowing money ________________ funds available for spending in the economy ________________ (such as the Dow Jones Averages, Standard & Poor’s 500) indicate general trends in the value of U.S. stocks ________________ the number of people without employment who are willing to work These economic factors may influence personal and financial decisions:

Risks Associated with Decision-Making _________________ factors that may create a less than desirable situation. Personal risk may be in the form of inconvenience, embarrassment, safety, or health concerns. _________________ rising prices cause lower buying power. Buying an item later may mean a higher price. _________________ changing interest rates affect your costs (when borrowing) and your benefits (when saving or investing). Risks are associated with every decision. The following are common risks related to personal and financial decision making:

Risks Associated with Decision-Making Risks are associated with every decision. The following are common risks related to personal and financial decision making: ______________ changing jobs or reduced spending by consumers can result in a lower income or loss of one’s employment. Career changes or job loss can result in a lower income and reduced buying power. ______________ certain types of savings (certificates of deposit) and investments (real estate) may be difficult to convert to cash quickly.

Opportunity Costs __________________ refers to what a person gives up when a decision is made. This cost, also called a trade-off, may involve one or more of your resources (time, money, and effort). ___________________________ may involve time, health, or energy. For example, time spent on studying usually means lost time for leisure or working. However, this trade-off may be appropriate since your learning and grades will likely improve. ____________________________ involve monetary values of decisions made. For example, the purchase of an item with money from your savings means you will no longer obtain interest on those funds.

Time Value of Money ___________________ can be used to measure financial opportunity costs using interest calculations. For example: spending $1,000 from a savings account paying 4% a year means an opportunity cost of $40 in lost interest. Calculations: $1,000 x.04 (4%) x 1 year = $40 Over 10 years, that $40 a year (saved at 4%) would have a value of $480 when taking into account compound interest.

Marketing, Advertising & Sales Strategies People who sell products and services are fishing for customers. They lure them in with sales, coupons, and other enticements. Unlike fish, consumers can benefit in this situation – if they know how to take advantage of special purchasing opportunities.

Examples of Marketing, Advertising & Sales Strategies Clearance Sales Holiday Sales Coupons Rebates Sweepstakes Contests Sales People Attractive Décor Background Music Items purchased most often are in back of store (bread/milk) Most profitable items are given prominent positions.
