Advanced Placement Economics covers both micro and macro economic issues. Microeconomics provides instruction in each of the following areas: basic economic concepts, the nature and functions of product markets, factor markets, and market failure and the role of government. Macroeconomics provides instruction in each of the following areas: basic economic concepts, measurement of economic performance, national income and price determination, financial sector, inflation, unemployment, and stabilization policies, economic growth and productivity, open economy: international trade and finance.

Students who elect to take AP Economics qualify to take the Advanced Placement exams in both Micro and Macro Economics in the spring of the year. Since Micro and Macro Economics are two distinct courses in college, doing well on those exams can equate to substantial money savings in the future. This is an excellent course choice for anyone, especially for those students who are interested in majoring in business at the collegiate level.
