At the end of the course students should be able to:
-understand methods of measurement of macroeconomic indicators (GDP, inflation and unemployment) and apply these methods on data;
- derive supply and demand for factors of production and explain how national income is distributed;
- derive supply and demand for loanable funds;
- interpret formation of equilibrium at market of factors of production, market of goods and services and loanable funds market, all in closed economy;
- understand and explain quantity theory of money and relationship between interest rate and inflation (Fisher effect);
- derive money demand and explain formation of equilibrium at money market;
- explain cost of expected and unexpected inflation and cost of hyperinflation;
- explain how banking system is working, including derivation of money multiplier;
- derive model of loanable funds for small open economy;
- give information about determinants of nominal and real exchange rate;
- derive model for determination of equilibrium exchange rate and use it for analysis of economic policy;
- define various types of unemployment and explain their determinants;
- derive model of natural rate of unemployment;
- derive and interpret Solow growth model with population growth and technology progress;
- determine steady state and golden rule of capital accumulation in Solow model;
- use Solow model for economic policy analysis;
- sketch concepts of endogenous growth models;
- explain differences between neoclassical growth model (Solow) and models of endogenous growth;
- give basic facts about business cycles;
- derive IS curve from model of Keynesian cross, calculate fiscal multipliers;
- derive LM curve from theory of liquidity preference;
- determine equilibrium in IS-LM model and derive aggregate demand (AD);
- analyze impacts of monetary and fiscal policy on equilibrium in IS-LM model and AD curve;
- derive Mundell-Fleming model (including derivations of IS* a LM* curves) for small open economy;
- analyze effects of economic policy in regimes of fixed and floating exchange rate;
- compare exchange rate regimes, evaluate their pros and cons;
- derive short-run aggregate supply (AS), sketch basic theories;
- analyze short-run fluctuation in AS-AD model;

- explain differences between adaptive and rational expectations;
- analyze desinflation policy for different kinds of expectations, calculate and interpret sacrifice ratio;
- explain differences between active and passive economic policy, define inside and outside lags;
- assess advantages and disadvantages of discretionary policy and policy that follows rules;
- give overview of opinions on government debt;
