1. Suppose the Phillips curve is represented by the following equation: 7, -7, = 0.2- 2u, . Given this information, we know that the natural rate of unemployment in this economy is 2. In the following production function, Y = f(K,NA), a 20% increase in A will cause (labor / effective labor / output / output per worker) to increase by 20%?

(a) Suppose during a year working-age population increased by 1%, labor force participation decreased by -3%, and the number of unemployed people increased by 4%. (Note: these numbers are rates of growth of the corresponding variables.) By how much did the unemployment rate increase or decrease? "
Question 2 Consider the following model of the labour market: 60 = E; + Ut Ut+1 = Ut Ut + Et, 3 where E, denotes the number of employed persons (in period t) and U; denotes the number of unemployed persons (both measured in millions). a) Interpret the above equations and calculate steady-state unemployment. b) Assume the economy is initially in a steady state. Suppose that structural changes in the labour market result in the job-finding rate decreasing by half. Using an appropriate diagram, analyse and explain the impact on unemployment of this shock.

Consider the model of unemployment with job separation rate s = 0.05 and job finding rate f = 0.20. If the unemployment rate U = 10,000, L = 200,000, and E = 190,000 then what will the natural rate of unemployment be? Please show your calculation. If U were to fall to 5,000 because of an exogenous shock, how would the unemployment rate change in the short run? In the long run? If s were to fall to 0.03 because of an exogenous shock, how would the unemployment rate change in the short run? In the long run?
a.) what does unemployment mean economically and explain the types of Unemployment? b.) Explain Zero Unemployment.
Include correctly labeled diagrams, if useful or required, in explaining your answers. A correctly labeled diagram must have all axes and curves clearly labeled and must show directional changes. If the question prompts you to “Calculate,” you must show how you arrived at your final answer. The table below shows unemployment and labor force statistics for an economy. Actual rate of unemployment 3% Natural rate of unemployment 4% Population of the country 125 million Number of people employed 97 million Number of people unemployed 3 million Number of people employed part time 5 million Number of discouraged workers 2 million (c) Given the state of the economy described in the table, is actual real output less than, greater than, or equal to potential real output? Explain. (d) Calculate what the cyclical unemployment rate would be if the actual rate of unemployment increased to 5 percent. Show your work.

Answer the given question with a proper explanation and step-by-step solution. What is the expected evolution of unemployment for 2024? And the expected evolution of wages? And will the Labor Force Participation Rate (LFPR) converge to its pre-covid level by the end of 2023?
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, you are considered to be unemployed if you have no job. True O False 日 e ASUS 14 15 f6 f7 f8 f9 f10
According to the St. Louis Federal Reserve the natural unemployment rate is 4.44 percent (Q2 2022 B) and the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) estimates the U.S. unemployment rate (U3, March 2022 ) to be 3.6 percent. If you expect unemployment to continue to fall the short-run Phillips curve would predict: O A decrease in the inflation rate. An increase in the inflation rate. A decrease in the unemployment rate. An increase in the unemployment rate.
