Economic interactions involving which of the following would most likely be studied in macroeconomics?

Question

a family’s finances
trade at a duty-free shop on the U.S.-Canadian border
International Monetary Fund policy
a small company’s supply contract for a local town

Answer 1

In macroeconomics, the focus is on the economy as a whole rather than individual markets or companies. Among the options provided, the one that would most likely be studied in macroeconomics is:

International Monetary Fund policy

This is because macroeconomics deals with large-scale economic factors, national policies, and international economic interactions, while the other options involve smaller-scale economic activities or microeconomic aspects.
