Macro examples:
- the effects of a tax increase on the gross domestic product (yes)
- the influence of economic challenges, such as inflation and unemployment (yes)
- the result of a major government spending program on the national unemployment rate (yes)

Not macro (micro) examples:
- the impact of competition on a bakery (no — firm/industry-level, microeconomics)
- the effect of rising interest rates on the purchasing decisions of individuals (no — individual consumer behavior, microeconomics; note: interest rates are a macro variable too, but studying individual purchase choices is micro)
