- summary: AP Microeconomics is a college-level course that focuses on the decisions made by individuals, businesses, and governments in markets. Students explore key concepts like supply and demand, market structures, production costs, and consumer choice. The course also examines the role of government in promoting efficiency and equity, as well as how markets can fail. Through graphs, models, and real-world examples, students learn to analyze how prices are determined, how resources are allocated, and how different economic actors respond to incentives. AP Microeconomics helps students understand the foundations of economic behavior and prepares them for further study in business and economics.
