Macroeconomics focuses on three things: National output, unemployment, and
inflation. Governments can use macroeconomic policy including monetary and fiscal
policy to stabilize the economy. Central banks use monetary policy to increase or
decrease the money supply, and use fiscal policy to adjust government spending.
Microeconomics studies individuals and business decisions, while macroeconomics
analyzes the decisions made by countries and governments. Microeconomics focuses on
supply and demand, and other forces that determine price levels, making it a
bottom-up approach.
The study of macroeconomics is very important for evaluating the overall
performance of the economy in terms of national income. The national income data
helps in anticipating the level of fiscal activity and understanding the
distribution of income among different groups of people in the economy.
Macroeconomics is difficult to teach partly because its theorists (classical,
Keynesian, monetarist, New Classical and New Keynesian, among others) disagree
about so much. It is difficult also because the textbooks disagree about so little.
Macroeconomics is a branch of economics that studies how an overall economy—the
market systems that operate on a large scale—behaves. Macroeconomics studies
economy-wide phenomena such as inflation, price levels, rate of economic growth,
national income, gross domestic product (GDP), and changes in unemployment.
The primary problems are unemployment, inflation, and stagnant growth.
Macroeconomic theories are designed to explain why these problems emerge and to
recommend corrective policies.
The principles of macroeconomics directly impact almost every area of life. They
affect employment, government welfare, the availability of goods and services, the
way nations interact with one another, the price of food in the shops – almost
everything.
Some of the most important macroeconomic indicators include:
Non-Farm Payrolls (NFPs)
Consumer Price Index (CPI)
Decisions on interest rates.
Retail Sales.
Industrial Production.
Gross Domestic Product (GDP)
Five Macroeconomic Goals

Called the father of modern economics, Samuelson became the first American to win
the Nobel Prize in Economics (1970) for his work to transform the fundamental
nature of the discipline.
A macroeconomic factor is an influential fiscal, natural, or geopolitical event
that broadly affects a regional or national economy. ... Examples of macroeconomic
factors include economic outputs, unemployment rates, and inflation
Macroeconomics helps you understand how the economy is working as a whole. It
examines the overall fluctuations in the economy such as increase or fall in
unemployment and gross domestic product.
I found finance to be slightly more challenging. Economics varies more though.
There are very easy courses you can take, as well as extremely challenging ones—
especially at the graduate level. If you're just talking about a basic bachelors
degree though, then finance is probably a little harder but not by much.
Macroeconomics is not that hard you think. It's your approach which make in
complex. More you approach graphically, the easier it will become. Macroeconomics
starts with GDP study and expands through inflation, interest rates and different
school's thoughts.
