Macroeconomics

[Md. Alamgir Hossan]

Macroeconomics can be thought of as the “big picture” version of economics. Rather than analyzing individual markets, macroeconomics focuses on aggregate production and consumption in an economy. Some topics that macroeconomists study are:
•   The effects of general taxes such as income and sales taxes on output and prices
•   The causes of economic upswings and downturns
•   The effects of monetary and fiscal policy on economic health
•   How interest rates are determined
•   Why some economies grow faster than others
