Unit: EFIM10016 Economic Data Assessment’s contribution to unit: 100% Release Date: 27/11/2024 Submission Date: 04/12/2024 at 11:00 am Feedback Released: 13/01/2025 |
Students are strongly advised to submit their work ahead of the deadline. Should you have a problem with submission
to Blackboard you should email econ-ug@bristol.ac.uk for guidance immediately.
• Your answer(s) to Part 2 should be at least 400 words. Your answer to Part 3 should not exceed 300 words.
Answers much longer than this are unlikely to be sufficiently concise, whilst answers shorter than this are likely to be missing key details, and are likely to gain lower intellectual marks. You should include an accurate word count on the front cover of the assignment.
• Assignments handed in after the deadline, without a pre-arranged extension, will be subject to late penalties. Details relating to penalties are at the end of this document.
• A reference list/bibliography is recommended. This list does not contribute to the word count. Information on referencing can be found via ourlibrary.
• Please use Arial or Calibri font at 12-point.
• Your assignment should be combined into a single document and submitted in pdf format with a document name containing your student number.
• You may include photographs or scans of your own hand-drawn, labelled diagrams or calculations. We would advise you to generate your own diagrams but if you include diagrams or pictures that you have not produced yourself, or are modified versions of existing images, you should ensure you reference them appropriately.
Figures and tables should normally be included inline in the text.
• Your answer will be assessed using theUniversity Marking Criteria.
This is a piece of COURSEWORK that contributes to your Unit mark and you can:
• Use resources to support you in completing your answer.
• Draw upon a range of accepted resources including, your own notes, lecture slides/recordings, course material, textbooks, journal articles, online resources. ALL work should be written in your own words.
• Ask for help from your personal tutors or academic lecturers if you do not understand an aspect of the coursework.
• Broad discussion with your tutors, fellow students, friends and family on the assessment topic and your ideas/approach may help you to further your knowledge and understanding.
• Use your network of family and friends to gain support and encouragement during the assessment period.
Please remember this is a formal assessment and you should behave in a manner consistent with our values. This means you cannot:
• Allow others to directly contribute to your written answer by revising or adding to the academic content. This is collusion and is against University Regulations.
• Share your assessment with others or ask others to share their work with you.
• Copy and paste any material (text, images, coding, calculations) from other sources, including teaching material and shared revision notes directly into your answer without appropriate acknowledgement. This is plagiarism
and is against University Regulations.
• Pay another person or company to complete the assessment for you. This is contract cheating and is against University Regulations.

Task 1
Your task is to analyse the change in the number of people in your assigned country since the 1980s. Your answer could cover topics such as population stocks and flows, changes in fertility, and life expectancy. The task description is intentionally vague. You decide on the precise time periods and the exact focus of your assignment. Use at least 400 words and 2 visualisations for this exercise. All visualisations should be made from scratch using R. You can use data from Eurostat, OECD, or the World Bank.
Task 2
Your task is to describe the development in unemployment, inequality, or poverty in your assigned country. You decide the exact period to study. This could be a historical period, the current period, or both. You can look at overall unemployment, inequality, and poverty, or you can look at specific subgroups (for example by age or gender). You can also study whether unemployment and inequality are correlated. Use at least 400 words and 2 visualisations for this exercise. All visualisations should be made from scratch using R. You can use data from Eurostat, OECD, or the World Bank.
Task 3
Describe the growth in GDP per capita for your assigned country. You decide the exact period to study. The task description is intentionally vague. Use at least 400 words and 2 visualisations for this exercise. All visualisations should be made from scratch using R. You can use data from Eurostat, OECD, or the World Bank.
Task 4
Describe the development of prices in your assigned country. You decide the exact period to study. The task description is intentionally vague. Use at least 400 words and 2 visualisations for this exercise. All visualisations should be made from scratch using R. You can use data from Eurostat, OECD, or the World Bank.
3 Part 3 (10%)
You should identify all mistakes in the following visual and verbal description of inequality.
• Your answer can be in bullet points, or you can provide a coherent paragraph describing all mistakes that you identified.
• The word limit is 300 words.

The figure depicts inequality in the United Kingdom since the 1970s. We use the Gini index because it is the most suited to understand changes in inequality over time. We use data provided by the World Bank. As seen by a rising Gini index, it is clear that inequality in the UK has decreased since the 1970s. This shows that as economies grow, inequality tends to decrease.
