(9) (d)
Working age population (WP) = 10,000 x (1/2) = 5,000
Labor force (LF) = Currently working + Called in sick + Currently on vacation + Actively seeking employment
= 2,000 + 400 + 600 + 1,000 = 4,000
LFPR = (LF / WP) x 100% = (4,000 / 5,000) x 100% = 80%
(10) (a)
Employed = Currently working + Called in sick + Currently on vacation = 2,000 + 400 + 600 = 3,000
Employment-population ratio = (3,000 / 10,000) x 100% = 30%
