What is the difference between Economics MICRO and MACRO?

What is a difference between macro economics amd micro economics with respect to inflation?

  • Answer:

    Macro economics is the study of an economy and how it functions. Inflation in a macro sense reduces the value of money (and hence all debt and savings) and can cause a country to be less pricecompetitive if it's persistent. It also nullifies the market mechanism that allows people to know a good price off the top of their heads. Micro economics is the study of markets. Inflation isn't a micro concept, but with high inflation in certain markets firms can seek alternatives to the material causing the inflation causing dynamic efficiency (where a firm innovates and benefit the consumer). Inflation also reduces information in a micro economy. As said before people don't intuitively know a good price when an economy is in high inflation meaning that more expensive products can often break into the market.
