Microeconomics is part of the study of how the world works. It deals with managerial, household and government decision- making, the design and effects of public policy and the efficiency and fairness of the way resources are used. This unit focuses upon a range of microeconomic principles, their use by economists in economic analysis and their application to decision-making problems. While drawing on the history of economic thought, it emphasises contemporary resource- use issues and the development of analytic ability.
