If the natural rate of unemployment is 6 percent, what is the
actual unemployment rate for this economy (use Okun’s law given
Y* = 29,000).
Actual unemployment rate: ?? %
a) PAE = C+I+G+NX
1500+0.9(Y-T)+1000+1500+100
1500+0.9(Y-1500)+1000+1500+100
1500+0.9Y-1350+1000+1500+100
2750+0.9Y
Y | PAE | Y-PAE | Y=PAE |
27100 | 27140 | -40.00 | No |
27300 | 27320 | -20.00 | No |
27500 | 27500 | 0.00 | Yes |
27700 | 27680 | 20.00 | No |
27900 | 27860 | 40.00 | No |
b) Equilibrium output = 27500
c) Output Gap = 29000-[2750+0.9*29000] = 150
d) Actual unemployment rate
29000-27500/27500*100 = 6.26%

Consider the economy described by the following equations: C = 1,600 + 0.9 (Y – T) I p = 800 G = 1,600 NX = 200 T = 1,600 Y* = 29,000 a. Complete the table shown below to find short-run equilibrium output. Consider possible values for short-run equilibrium output as they are given in the table below. Instructions: If you are entering any negative numbers be sure to include a negative sign (-) in front of those numbers. OutputY...
Suppose that the natural rate of unemployment in a particular year is 6 percent and the actual rate of unemployment is 9 percent. Use Okun’s law to determine the size of the GDP gap in percentage-point terms. If the potential GDP is $500 billion in that year, how much output is being forgone because of cyclical unemployment? Suppose that the natural rate of unemployment in a particular year is 6 percent and the actual rate of unemployment is 9 percent....
a) If a country's natural unemployment rate is 5 percent and its actual unemployment rate is 3.5 percent, what is its cyclical unemployment rate? percent Instructions: Enter the value for the output gap as an absolute number. b) According to Okun's law, this country would have (Click to select) an expansionary a recessionary output gap of percent.
a. Suppose the natural rate of unemployment is 4 percent. What is the actual rate of unemployment if actual output is 2 percent below potential output? (Please express your answer in percent terms) b. In Macroland, potential output equals $100 trillion and the natural rate of unemployment is 4 percent. If the actual unemployment rate is 3 percent, then real GDP equals:
12 ay if a country's natural unemployment rate is 5 percent and its actual unemployment rate is 6.5 percent, what is its cyclical unemployment rate? percent Instructions: Enter the value for the output gap as an absolute number b) According to Okun's law, this country would have a recessionary output gap of percent. 0123:17
