macro question want to verify is answer correct?
Q. Assume that in a particular year the natural rate of unemployment is 5 percent and the actual rate of unemployment is 9 percent. Use okuns law to determine the size of the GDP gap in percentage point terms? I got the answer 8 percent is that right? then if the potential GDP is 500 billion in that year, how much output is being forgone because of cyclical unemployment?
Asked by qtpie76868 - Fri Mar 6 01:25:56 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Okuns law is country and period specific. If we take approximate current annual US state then: (Y-Y*)/Y* = c(u-u ) u = 0.05 = 5% u = 0.09 = 9% (Y-Y*)/Y* = c(0.09-0.05) If we assume c=2, then: - Y/Y* = 2*0.04 = 0.08 = 8% + Y/Y* = -0.08 = -8% (negative gap - below full employment) Y* = 500 Y = -0.08 * 500 = -40 billion (lost due to cyclical unemployment) But anyway in reality this law isn't linear and many variables in it are very dynamic.

A. Okuns law is country and period specific. If we take approximate current annual US state then: (Y-Y*)/Y* = c(u-u ) u = 0.05 = 5% u = 0.09 = 9% (Y-Y*)/Y* = c(0.09-0.05) If we assume c=2, then: - Y/Y* = 2*0.04 = 0.08 = 8% + Y/Y* = -0.08 = -8% (negative gap - below full employment) Y* = 500 Y = -0.08 * 500 = -40 billion (lost due to cyclical unemployment) But anyway in reality this law isn't linear and many variables in it are very dynamic.
