Micro is a prefix from the Greek word μικρός meaning small. Macro is the prefix meaning large, from the similar Greek word μάκρος, which means 'long'. Some examples include:

Microeconomics: focuses on the economic choices of individual actors (people, firms).

Macroeconomics: focuses on aggregate economics (countries, industries, etc.).

The term micro is derived from Greek word 'mikros' meaning 'small' and the term macro is derived from the Greek word 'makros' meaning 'large'.

Thus, Micro economics studies the economic behaviour of individual decision making units such as consumers, resource owners and business firms. It makes a microscopic study o the economy.

Whereas, Macro economics is concerned with the analysis of the behaviour of the whole economy. It deals with those aggregates which relate to the whole economy like total consumption, total investment, total savings, etc.

Microeconomics is the study of small part of the whole economy. It deals with particular firms, household, individual, prices wages, incomes, individuals, industries, particular commodities.

On the other hand the word Macro means large in scope, and explains the bigger picture, or universal.

Microeconomics is the study of decisions that people and businesses make regarding the allocation of resources and prices of goods and services. This means also taking into account taxes and regulations created by governments. Microeconomics focuses on other forces that determine price levels for specific companies in specific industry sectors. For example, microeconomics would look at how a specific company could maximize it's production and capacity so it could lower prices and better compete in its industry.

Macroeconomics, on the other hand, is the field of economics that studies the behavior of the economy as a whole and not just on specific companies, but entire industries and economies. This looks at economy-wide phenomena such as Gross National Product (GDP) and how it is affected by changes in unemployment, national income, rate of growth, and price levels. For example, macroeconomics would look at how an increase/decrease in net exports would affect a nation's capital account or how GDP would be affected by unemployment rate.

While these two studies of economics appear to be different, they are actually interdependent and complement one another since there are many overlapping issues between the two fields. For example, increased inflation (macro effect) would cause the price of raw materials to increase for companies and in turn affect the end product's price charged to the public.

The bottom line is that microeconomics takes a bottoms-up approach to analyzing the economy while macroeconomics takes a top-down approach. Regardless, both micro- and macroeconomics provide fundamental tools for any finance professional and should be studied together in order to fully understand how companies operate and earn revenues and thus, how an entire economy is managed and sustained.

Macro economics is the study of an entire national economy, or an international economy. It is what is usually meant by the term economics. Micro economics is the application of economic theory to a smaller economic system such as a single family or business.

Macro- and microeconomics, and their wide array of underlying concepts, have been the subject of a great deal of writings. The field of study is vast; here is a brief summary of what each covers:

The general law of diminishing returns partially accounts for the upward slope of supply curves for individual firms and for market supply curves. Additional production eventually becomes ever more costly as output levels grow. Thus, firms may require higher prices to justify expanding their outputs. Moreover, higher prices embody greater incentives for firms to produce more output because profit opportunities are enhanced. A similar logic applies for the economy as a whole.

Price ceiling is government rules or laws setting price floors or ceilings that forbid the adjustment of price to clear markets. Price ceilings make it illegal for sellers to charge more than a specific maximum price. ceilings may be introduced when a shortage of a commodity threatens to raise its price a lot.

No. Even a simple understanding of economics and price theory will prove this. No matter the firm's market power, price is always set by supply and demand. They can try and command a price on their own, but competitors will find a way to sell the same thing at a lower price. Supply and Demand always dictate price...even in gas prices contrary to what the media would have you believe. If Americans quit using so mus gas, the price would drop. But we keep buying it up and the demand rises during the summer. Since there is only a fixed amount of the product available for the world, this increased demand forces the price up ...because somewhere, somebody is willing to pay it. And if nobody is willing to pay it, they will lower the price to encourage it.

Now, what if the government forced them to lower the price. Suppose they set a limit at 2.00 cents a gallon. The result? There would never be enough gas to last. People would take the opportunity to fill up all their cars, their mowers, their gas cans, their boat...and then the guy who just needs a few gallons can't get any because everyone else bought it up due to an artificial price fix.

Supply and demand are the factors that affect price. Not anything else. It's NOT a company's "greedy" desire for profit. In fact, big oil companies make only about 12 cents on each gallon of gas...the government taxes each gallon nearly 20 cents...so do the math. If X oil company posts a profit of 12 billion dollars, the media goes nuts and everybody calls them greedy...but that means the government just got 20 billion in taxes off the same gas.

Instead of phony "price ceilings" let supply and demand have their way in the market.

In general, anytime a free market is prohibited from setting prices in equilibrium, supply and demand will not match, and surpluses or shortages will occur.

In the case of a binding price ceiling, an upper limit is set on the price, below what the economy would naturally want. Thus, demand is higher than what is should be, and supply is lower - there is excess demand, or a shortage. This occurs in rent-controlled apartments in New York City, and also partially led to the disastrous winter at Valley Forge in the Revolutionary War. (Farmers were not willing to sell to the Continental Army at artificially low prices, and preferred to sell to the English instead.)

In the case of a binding price floor, the lower limit on price is above that clearing price, and supply exceeds demand, so there is a surplus. This is the case for many goods in the US farm industry, where the US government pays farmers not to plant to keep prices elevated, and used to buy large amounts of cheese and other agricultural products, for distribution to the needy or destruction.
