The purpose of an AP course in Macroeonomics is to give students a thorough understanding of the principles of economics that apply to an economic system as a whole. We will emphasize the study of national income and price determination; examine economic performance measures, economic growth and international economics. We move quickly into examination of both the Keynesian expenditure model and the classical monetarist model of the macro economy. We study the role of the Federal Reserve and the banking system.
