Solution

Macroeconomics is the branch of economics that deals with the structure, performance, behavior, and decision-making of the whole, or aggregate, economy. Hence, statement (A) is correct. The central issues in Macroeconomics relate to the overall level of employment, growth rate of national output, general price level and stability of the economy. Hence, statement (R) is correct. Though both the statements are correct but R is not the correct explanation of A. Therefore, B is the right answer.
