Answer:

The frictional unemployment rate is <u>3.1</u> percent and the actual unemployment rate (in this economy) is <u>7.3</u> percent.

Explanation:

natural unemployment rate = frictional unemployment + structural unemployment

frictional unemployment = natural unemployment - structural unemployment = 5.3% - 2.2% = 3.1%

actual unemployment rate = natural unemployment + cyclical unemployment rate = 5.3% + 2% = 7.3%

Frictional unemployment is voluntary and happens when someone quits his/her job in order to look for a better job. Structural unemployment happens when the skills of the workers do not match the requirements of the hiring companies. Cyclical unemployment takes place when the economy is in recession.

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

<u>sell the stock which will drive it's expected return even lower.</u>

An investor wants to be compensated for the risk undertaken in the form of return. When investors believe that a stock is not providing sufficient return, such stocks would be sold by the investor.

When a stock is not performing well i.e it's current market price goes down, all the investors holding that stock will sell it , leading to it's market price going further down.

Since the market price goes further down, the expected return on such a stock would further decline.

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

The correct answer are option D for both questions.

Explanation:

Recessions is characterized with decrease in consumer and investment spending. During recessions there is a decline in inflation rate and the unemployment rate increases.

While during expansion, there is a boost in economy. So, with increase in investment and production, the unemployment rate falls. There is a rise in inflation rate as well.

Though even in the stages of recovery, the unemployment rate continues to increase because some firms are pessimistic and are operating below their capacity. Also, the rate of growth of labor force is higher than rate of employment growth, which leads to increase in unemployment.
