Dick Brunelle and I think students' knowledge of sole proprietorships, partnerships, and corporations is an important aspect of a Principles of Economics course, even though students in an advanced placement economics course are not required to know these concepts..

The lesson about Brureff Bottling Company, a business started by Dick Brunelle, who started as a sole proprietor, then moved into a partnership, and then finally into a corporation is a humorous lesson about these concepts.  Here is the link to that lesson:

Dick Brunelle and I also created an Interactive Cost Curves Game to test students' knowledge on the important concepts (curves and points) on a cost curve graph.  Here is the link to that lesson:

After reading and playing with the two lessons above, don't forget to take the Internet multiple choice test.
