3. What is the relationship between frictional unemployment and the natural rate of unemployment? Why does frictional unemployment differ among different age groups in the population? If a society is aging overall, how will this affect unemployment? Be as thorough as possible. 2. Explain the benefits and drawbacks for unemployment insurance. Explain the benefits and drawbacks to the minimum wage. How do these policies affect work incentives? Be as thorough as possible. In 2012, the imaginary nation of Bovina had...
Why is frictional unemployment inevitable? How might the government reduce the amount of frictional unemployment?
Describe cohort, static, and age distribution life tables. Which are most commonly used and why? How could life table data, in combination with a fecundity schedule, be used to determine the per capita rate of increase (r) of a population exhibiting iteroparity? You must describe, step by step, how you would take hypothetical data from a raw table of survivorship and age specific fertility rates to the per capita rate of increase.

The Mankiw text covers several types of unemployment, including frictional unemployment (the time lag for workers to find a job to fit their skills), structural unemployment (when the number of workers exceeds the number of jobs), and cyclical unemployment (when unemployment deviates from the natural rate of unemployment). To complete the Discussion activity, write a post that answers the following questions: One type of unemployment the text does not cover is seasonal unemployment. Research seasonal unemployment and write a discussion...
