Abstract

Macro Models are a series of free Apps available in App Store, and they work with Ipads. Each App simulates a specific macroeconomic model and presents both the static and the dynamic results. The first five Apps developed and published are: the Income-Expenditure model in three versions (I, II and III), the IS-LM model and the Taylor’s rule (IS-MP model). The economic model of each single App and several examples on how it works are outlined in this paper.
