Business Economics-Analytical Approach (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798748645805)

This textbook is a product of many years of research in Economics. Economics is the study of the ways in which society allocates its scarce resources among alternative uses and the consequences of these decisions. Business economics can be divided into two related but distinguishable Parts-Micro-economics and Macro-economics. Microeconomics deals with the individual units in the economy. It studies distinct units by laying emphasis on the behaviour of households and firms. Micro-economics deals with the study of the component units that makes up the economy and how their decisions and actions are interrelated. They include the behaviour of consumers and business firms, relations between prices of various commodities and those of factors of production, the allocation of scarce resources among alternative uses. Pricing and production under different market conditions and other related issues. Macroeconomics on the other hand deals with the economic aggregates. Its focus is not on individual economic units but rather, it directs attention to the economy as a whole. It impacts on the economy as a whole.. Macro-economics is the study of the aggregate behaviour of the economy. It focuses on issues, such as the general level of employment, particularly the employment of labour, the general level of prices, the level of money supply, National output, International trade, Balance of Payment (BOP), Fiscal policies, etc. National income falls within the scope of Macro-economics.This textbook therefore look beyond what happens in individual firms but also provide solutions to business problems in the entire economy.
