Edexcel International A-Level Economics (XEC11/YEC11) begins with markets and market failure, then studies economic performance and policy. Later units develop business behaviour and the global economy. Demand and supply, incentives and opportunity cost help explain choices; aggregate models connect spending, output, employment and prices.
An economic model gives a conditional explanation. State what changes, trace the effect on consumers, firms or governments, and identify what must stay constant. Evaluation then considers how the result depends on the evidence, the time period and the assumptions. A balanced answer ends with a supported judgement about the case in the question.
