Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Microeconomics takes care of economics decisions and assessments made at a small or micro level. Therefore, microeconomics is the study as well as analysis of the decisions made by persons and groups, the aspects that influence those decisions, and how those decisions have an effect on other individuals.

At the same time, microeconomics is referred to all persons in all areas of business and trade - from the purchaser to the manufacturer.

In fact, there are two major concepts or ideas that we require to know in microeconomics that develop the foundation of not only microeconomics, but all economic theory/concept. And, the concepts are supply and demand or requirement, and scarcity or insufficiency. Moreover, by means of these two basic concepts, an individual can understand practically the entire human economic behavior.

Microeconomics is a branch of economics. Adam Smith defined Economics as “a science of wealth” in his book “An Enquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of the Nations”. Microeconomics studies the economic behavior at the micro or individual level, which means that it studies the economic decisions taken by a person, a household or a firm. Thus, Microeconomics is supplemental to Macroeconomics. The various topics covered by microeconomics include demand theory, supply theory, demand for factors of production and the theory of the firm, pricing theory, types of markets, elasticity of demand and supply, and the laws of return. It also studies general equilibrium and unstable equilibrium.

Microeconomics makes an attempt to understand the decision-making process of an individual, a household, a firm and an industry. In order to study Microeconomics, you need to choose Economics as one of your subjects in school.
