Economics Simulations Online — Free Interactive Models

Free interactive economics simulations: supply and demand, game theory, monetary and fiscal policy, market competition, and more. Explore how economies behave.

Economics
Behavioral Economics — Bias & Decision Making

Behavioral Economics — Bias & Decision Making

Explore behavioral economics concepts like loss aversion, anchoring, and framing effects through interactive choice experiments that reveal systematic decision biases.

Economics
Development Economics — Growth & Poverty Traps

Development Economics — Growth & Poverty Traps

Model economic development dynamics including poverty traps, capital accumulation, and human capital investment to understand why some economies stagnate.

Economics
Environmental Economics — Externalities & Carbon Tax

Environmental Economics — Externalities & Carbon Tax

Simulate environmental externalities and carbon pricing by setting pollution costs and tax levels to find the socially optimal output and deadweight loss reduction.

Economics
Fiscal Policy Simulator — Government Budget & GDP

Fiscal Policy Simulator — Government Budget & GDP

Simulate the effects of fiscal policy changes — government spending and taxation — on GDP, employment, and the budget deficit in a Keynesian aggregate demand model.

Economics
Game Theory — Nash Equilibrium & Strategy

Game Theory — Nash Equilibrium & Strategy

Find Nash equilibria in simultaneous and sequential games including the Prisoner's Dilemma, Battle of the Sexes, and entry deterrence using payoff matrix analysis.

Economics
Inflation Model — Phillips Curve & Expectations

Inflation Model — Phillips Curve & Expectations

Simulate inflation dynamics using the Phillips curve and adaptive or rational expectations to trace how output gaps and monetary shocks drive inflation over time.

Economics
International Trade — Comparative Advantage

International Trade — Comparative Advantage

Simulate international trade and comparative advantage by setting production possibilities for two countries and computing gains from specialization and exchange.

Economics
Labor Economics — Wages, Employment & Unions

Labor Economics — Wages, Employment & Unions

Explore labor market equilibrium, wage determination, and the effects of minimum wages, unions, and monopsony on employment levels and worker welfare.

Economics
Market Competition — Perfect to Monopoly

Market Competition — Perfect to Monopoly

Compare market structures from perfect competition to monopoly and oligopoly by adjusting the number of firms and observing price, quantity, and welfare outcomes.

Economics
Monetary Policy — Interest Rates & Money Supply

Monetary Policy — Interest Rates & Money Supply

Simulate central bank monetary policy by adjusting the money supply and policy interest rate to influence inflation, output, and exchange rates via the LM curve.

Economics
Multiplier Effect — Spending Rounds & GDP

Multiplier Effect — Spending Rounds & GDP

Trace the Keynesian multiplier effect round by round as an initial injection of spending circulates through the economy and multiplies into total GDP change.

Economics
Stock Market Simulator — Prices & Valuation

Stock Market Simulator — Prices & Valuation

Simulate stock price dynamics using dividend discount models and market sentiment to explore how earnings expectations, interest rates, and risk drive valuations.

Economics
Supply & Demand — Market Equilibrium Simulator

Supply & Demand — Market Equilibrium Simulator

Shift supply and demand curves to find market equilibrium, measure price elasticity, and observe surplus and shortage dynamics in a competitive goods market.

Economics
Tragedy of the Commons — Resource Depletion

Tragedy of the Commons — Resource Depletion

Simulate the tragedy of the commons by managing a shared fishery or pasture where individual incentives lead to collective overuse and resource depletion.
