Micreconomics deals with specific economic units and a detailed consideration of these individual units. At this level of analysis, the economist figuratively puts an economic unit, or very small segment of the economy, under the microscope to observe details of its operation. Here we talk of individual industry, firm, or household, and concentrate on such magnitudes as the output or price of a specific product, the number of workers employed by a single firm, the revenue or income of a praticular firm or family. In microeconomics we examine the trees, not the forest. Micreconomics is useful in achieving a worm´s- eye view of some specific component of our economic system.
