Advanced Placement* Economics:

Students preparing for the AP Economics exam are challenged to sharpen their understanding and critical thinking skills through a combination of practical problems, reading, and analyses. Part 1 introduces students to the foundational concepts of macroeconomics (e.g., supply and demand, inflation, and international trade). Part 2 focuses on microeconomics and the interaction between consumers and suppliers (components of demand, elasticity, income distribution, and externalities). Includes 40 lessons with illustrative graphs. The consumable student workbook compiles all the student activity pages with none of the teaching instructions. Illustrated. Spiralbound. 8½" x 11".
