@@_Rohan007_ For total work force, you have too include everyone who is employed (doesn't matter if it is part time or full-time), and the number of people officially unemployed. (total is 800).

Forgive me if I'm wrong but I think one big overview point is that when the labour rate hits that frictional zone and stays there that another thing that keeps it from going to zero is new people reentering the labour force due to increased wages from a shortage of labour which ties into supply/demand
@@JacobAClifford And speaking of forgetting things - Thanks for these videos. Long out of my schooling years but I still learn something new from almost all of your videos.
Structural Unemployment: Changes in the structure of the labor force make some skills obsolete, workers do not have transferable skills and these jobs will never come back Frictional Unemployment: Workers are temporarily unemployed or between jobs, individuals are qualified workers with transferable skills but are not working Natural rate of Unemployment: The amount of unemployment that exists when the economy is health, when there is only frictional and structural unemployment Cyclical Unemployment: The result of an economic downturn or recession, as demand for goods and services falls, the demand for labor falls and workers are laid off
Hey, professor Jacob Clifford, I've learned a great deal from your videos, I'm an Econ major but I'm considering changing to a Business in economics any insights on that? I'd appreciated it.
I have subscribed to your channel and purchased both your macro and micro ultimate review packets, THEY ARE SOOOOO HELPFUL, honestly I wish you were my professor. I was wondering, do you have any videos on the Investment-Savings curve??
Mr. Cliford, In question 1 "how come Pat who recently left a job to look for a different job in another town is considered officially employed? Shouldn't it be " Lee who is working for 20 hrs per week and is seeking full-time employment?
No, since part time employed people are also counted in the employed column. To be counted as unemployed, you have to be not working but actively looking for work.
The informal sector employment also could make the numbers look bright when its actually not. And in some cases people have migrated back to villages leaving their previous jobs due to lockdown and they desperately seek for some alternate employment or self employment.
We did a PPC graph in Macroeconomics today regarding unemployment. I was wondering where you would put the point on the chart if unemployment was high but jobs weren’t available. You pretty much answered that with structural unemployment being configured in the natural rate of unemployment. With that being said, I’m guessing you can only put unemployment on a PPC graph as Labor Force only. I was asking my teacher where we would put natural unemployment rate at on the PPC in regards to automation/no jobs available due to advances in technology- requiring fewer workers/not the right skillset, and she didn’t really give an answer. I was confused, she just said that was a microeconomics topic. I guess if it was on the PPC it would be on the outside of the PPC, right?
Frictional Unemployment may not be voluntary as well. If someone is fired from their job and is on the lookout for a new job, he is frictionally unemployed, and it was not voluntary.
your videos are super helpful! (lets not use the stay-at-home mom's as an example when talking about what doesn't count as the working population, it seemed like you were invalidating SAHMs)

I recognize the hardships that come with economic struggles like unemployment, job loss, inflation, housing market instability, political uncertainties, and the global impact of conflicts and wars. Making ends meet during such times can be incredibly challenging. To navigate this difficult period, considering alternative job prospects, enhancing skills through online courses, and expanding your network can heighten the chances of securing employment. Moreover, prudent budgeting, exploring available financial aid programs, and seeking assistance from community organizations can offer some relief. How are you currently tackling these challenges? Have you implemented any specific strategies to cope?

Mr. Clifford, then are frictional and structural unempolyment are regarded as 'voluntary unemployed'? Whereas cyclical unemployment is not voluntary?
Frictional Unemployment may not be voluntary as well.
If someone is fired from their job and is on the lookout for a new job, he is frictionally unemployed, and it was not voluntary.

labour force -- ppl that are actively seeking for a job/have one.
frictional un--> temporary unemployment when ppl switch jobs or enter the labour force.
this type always exists as ppl always switch jobs and new always enter.
