Economics is the social science that studies the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services. It analyzes how individuals, businesses, governments, and societies make choices about allocating scarce resources to satisfy their needs and wants. Economics is often divided into two main branches: microeconomics, which focuses on the behavior of individual agents, such as consumers and firms, and macroeconomics, which deals with aggregate economic variables such as national income, inflation, and unemployment.
