Bad news for Greg Mankiw

Posted on 6:18 PM by Unknown
Cengage has gone bankrupt, and owes Greg $1.6 million.

Thought question: what does the negative income shock do to his labor supply?

This is likely bad news for Jeff Wooldridge too. His excellent undergraduate text, which I use in my ECON 406 class every fall, is also published by Cengage.

Addendum: apparently the bankruptcy is not a problem for Greg.

Hat tip: Ken Troske and others
