Micro economics - deals with the economic decisions of individuals and firms. It concerns itself with the determination of optimal operating strategies of a business firm. These strategies include profit maximization strategies, product pricing strategies, strategies for valuation of firm and assets etc. The basic principle of micro economics that applies in financial management is marginal analysis. Most of the financial decisions should be made taken into account the marginal revenue and marginal cost. So, every financial manager must be familiar with the basic concepts of micro economics.

Macro economics - deals with the aggregates of the economy in which the firm operates. Macro economics is concerned with the institutional structure of the banking system, money and capital markets, monetary, credit and fiscal policies etc. So, the financial manager must be aware of the broad economic environment and their impact on the decision making areas of the business firm.
