Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Aggregates covering the economy as a whole

2. It covers the functioning, performance and growth of an economy rather than the choices of one unit within it.
3. The textbook's own answer to this question is aggregates, and it deliberately offers a nation as a near-miss distractor.
4. Individual consumers and single firms are the subject matter of micro economics.
