SOUND FAMILIAR?


You Are Having Problems With IB Economics Calculations Because...

Your textbook buries calculations inside theory chapters - 2 or 3 examples per topic, no worked solutions, no specific support

Past papers give you calculation questions with no complete model answers - you know you got it wrong, but you don't know why or how to fix it

The only calculations dedicated workbook was published in 2021, runs to 93 pages, has no model answers, and specifications are largely outdated

YouTube videos are inconsistent, with no clear relationship to IB Economics marking standards, and leave you unsure what the examiner actually wants to see

HL students doing IB Maths can get the right calculation number - and still lose marks because the IB Economics method, elaboration and presentation aren't the same as pure IB maths

SL students searching "how much maths does IB Economics have?" before signing up for the programme, unsure of their calculation skills, now facing calculation questions with no structured support

Even when you find the formula, you're still wondering: "Do I need to state units?" "How much working do I show?" "What does the examiner want me to say about the result?" The result: More marks vanish

Not enough classroom or individual support hours leaves you unsure and uncomfortable about how to approach calculation questions, first in your mock exams, and later in the IB Economics final exam

But, Here Is The Truth:

Calculation questions are the most predictable marks in the entire IB Economics programme. Unlike essay questions, there is a definitive correct answer. These marks are learnable, drillable, and gainable - if you have the right resource. Until now, that resource didn't exist.

INTRODUCING

The IB Economics Calculations Book
The Complete Quantitative Skills Resource

This isn't a chapter inside a textbook. It isn't a handful of exam questions without answers. It is the only resource built specifically for IB Economics calculation mastery - covering every formula, every method, and every quantitative skill from the 2022-2026 syllabus.

  • Complete coverage of all 25 quantitative units - no gaps

  • 250+ structured activities - far more practice than any alternative

  • Complete model answer for every single activity

  • IB 2022-2026 standard marking scheme for every activity

  • Four-task structure per unit: 4x 2-4 activities + model answer + marking scheme

  • SL and HL content - clearly flagged throughout

  • Living digital platform - continuously updated

  • Multi-device access - no downloads, no storage required, no PDFs, no broken links

Everything you need for IB Economics calculation success. In one place. For $19.99 / year.

Two Students. Two Problems. Only One Solution.

IB Economics students approach calculation questions from two very different starting points. The Calculations Book addresses both.

The Four-Task Structure - Built for Exam Mastery

Every unit in the Calculations Book follows an identical four-task structure. Consistency is intentional - repetition with structure is what makes methods instinctive under exam pressure.

Task 01

Optimised Calculation Activity

An IB-standard calculation activity at the exact complexity standard examiners expect - from data to answer to economic interpretation.

Task 02

Alternative Calculation Activity

The same formula applied in a different economic scenario. Builds genuine transferable skill rather than surface-level pattern matching.

Task 03

Complete Model Answer

A fully written model answer - not bullet points, not just the number. The complete response showing how to present your answers, units, and economic explanation.

Task 04

IB 2022-2026 Marking Schemes

A detailed marking scheme aligned to the current IB Economics specification - showing exactly which steps earn which marks, at every level.

It's Never Just About Getting the Right Number

IB Economics marking schemes reward the process, not only the result. Here is the difference between partial marks and full marks on every calculation question:

The marking schemes in this book make this visible for every single activity. Students see not just what a full-mark response looks like, but exactly why each step earns marks - so they can practice the approach and replicate it independently under exam conditions.

Complete Coverage - All 25 Units, All Modules

Every quantitative unit from the IB Economics 2022-2026 specifications is covered. HL-only content is clearly flagged so SL and HL students always know exactly what applies to them.

How Does This Compare to Other IB Economics Calculations Resources?


The market reality: In 2026, the only dedicated IB Economics calculations alternative is a 93-page workbook published in 2021 - written before the current IB 2022 specification, available at €19.80 for a used copy.

It contains no model answers and no IB marking schemes. There is effectively no competition. This much needed resource fills a gap that has been empty for years.

The difference is clear. This is the only complete, IB 2022-2026 aligned calculations resource available - with model answers and marking schemes for every activity.

Perfect For IB Economics Students & Teachers

IB2 Students - Final Exam Preparation

Calculation questions are the clearest opportunity to bank marks before April/May exams. Working through all 25 units in the final preparation window ensures no quantitative skill arrives in the exam as a surprise.

HL Students - Maximising Paper 3

Paper 3 is largely quantitative. This is the only resource covering every Paper 3 calculation type with complete model answers and current IB marking schemes - HL content clearly flagged throughout.

Self-Studying Students

Distance learners, exam resitters, and students with limited teacher support get complete calculation coverage with model answers - effectively replacing the support and guidance typically delivered in class.

IB1 Students - Building From Day One

Drilling each unit immediately after it is taught builds method habits early. Students who master calculations in Year 1 don't panic in Year 2 - and the 12-month access covers the entire journey.

SL Students - Removing the Fear

For students who chose Economics partly to avoid heavy mathematics, this book reframes calculations as method practice. The structured step-by-step approach replaces insecurity with a repeatable, reliable process.

Teachers - Ready-Made Materials

Every unit provides ready-to-use calculation activities with IB standard model answers and marking schemes. Save hours of preparation while maintaining consistency with current examiner expectations. Updated continuously - no outdated content to replace.

IB Economics HL Student 2024, Aberdeen

I am a Sciences student but took IB Economics HL and just couldn't cope with my school's set-up. Used this activity book throughout the course, from beginning to end. I found it useful and to the point. Got a 6 in the end so thank you!

Cristine M.

IB Economics HL Student 2022, Charleroi

If you are struggling and finding IB Economics hard I recommend you these resources. They are so much value you won't regret it a bit.

Alisha B.

IB Economics HL Student 2025, Cheltenham

If you are a Sciences student like me you will find all the IB Economics calculations really basic, but this calculations resource helped me a lot to understand economics and how to describe the calculations and do the exercises that we were supposed to do in class but didn't.

Carmen C.

IB Economics HL Student 2024, Seville

This is a great site for both my subjects with an incredible amount of work done. Top quality resources well worth their price, and then some more on top. Made my life in class extremely easy as you can concentrate on the teaching and explaining side. Will use the resources this year as well.

Filip T.

IB Economics & IB Business Management Teacher 2025, Oslo

Don't judge a book by its cover, and make no mistake about these resources they are absolute gold! Helped me daily for 2 years to get a 7 in IB Economics. If you like me, are finding calculations and economics hard to understand this resource has you totally covered!

Lucija N.

IB Economics SL Student 2021, Zagreb

I use these resources every year for my IB Economics classes, the calculations resource is fine for practicing the maths part of the syllabus, especially with those students who struggle with numbers. The activity book is excellent for the entire course.

Giulia D.

IB Economics & IB Maths Teacher 2021, Milan

I liked that all you have to do is to go through the lessons, practice the exercises, check the model answers and have a quick look at the marking schemes and that's it. All the calculations you need are here and if you follow this system, you will get a good grade in the final exam. I got a 6 in IB Economics HL even though I have joined medical school to become a Doctor! Thank you!

Maja T.

IB Economics HL Student 2025, Wroclaw

For IB Economics you need to specialise is all the different modules and skills. IT is easier to learn it that way, and you will do better in your exam. So you study the IA, The Calculations, the activities and exam questions, the diagrams etc Here I found two very useful resources, the calculations module and the activity book, and with both you cover almost everything you need. 7 was my final grade so thank you very much!

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this for SL students, HL students, or both?

Both, fully. All SL quantitative units are covered. All additional HL calculation requirements - including profit maximisation, Gini coefficient, comparative advantage calculations, and Paper 3 quantitative content - are included and clearly flagged throughout. One resource, both cohorts, no ambiguity.

I'm doing IB Maths HL. Will I find this useful or is it too basic?

Very useful - for different reasons. The mathematics in IB Economics calculations is not demanding for someone doing IB Maths HL. What this book provides is the IB Economics method: how to structure working for IB Economics marking schemes, how to present units and working in the way examiners expect, and how to interpret results in economic terms. Many mathematically strong students lose marks on economics calculations precisely because they approach them as pure maths problems. This resource closes that gap.

How does this differ from the IB Economics Activity Book?

The Activity Book covers the full IB Economics syllabus - 52 units, 900+ activities - focusing on written analysis, diagram construction, and evaluation skills. The Calculations Book covers all 24 quantitative units with dedicated calculation activities, complete model answers, and marking schemes. They are complementary: the Activity Book builds your essay and diagram skills, your understanding of economics; the Calculations Book builds your quantitative mastery. Together they cover everything.

Why is there nothing else like this on the market?

The last dedicated IB Economics calculations resource was published in 2021 - 93 pages, no model answers, written before the current 2022 specification. It costs more second hand than this updated resource new. Major publishers have not filled this gap. This resource was built specifically because that gap exists.

Will my subscription include all future updates?

Yes - all updates made during your 12-month subscription period are included automatically. Unlike buying a static PDF that is outdated from the date you purchase it, the platform improves continuously. IB Economics specification & syllabus changes are reflected immediately, outdated activities are replaced as often as possible.

Can I access this on my phone or tablet?

Yes. The platform works on any device with an internet connection - laptop, tablet, or phone. No downloads, no installations, no PDF file management, no storage required.

What is the refund policy?

You can cancel and receive a full refund within 14 days of purchase, provided you have not accessed the course materials. Full details in our terms of service.
