SOCIETY IS FACED WITH TRADE-OFFS
![Page 10: MAROECONOMIC GOALS WHAT ARE THE COMPONENTS OF GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT? HOW DO WE MEASURE THE ECONOMY TO SEE IF WE ARE MEETING ECONOMIC GOALS?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e975503460f94b9ac9a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
OUR JOB IS
• TO UNDERSTAND THE VALIDITY OF THE MEASUREMENT OF ECONOMIC VARIABLES
IN ORDER TO
UNDERSTAND THE IMPLICATIONS OF THE TRADE-OFFS AMONG GOALS

THE UNEMPLOYMENT RATE IS A BROAD MEASURE OF ECONOMIC ACTIVITY
• TO EMPLEMENT PROGRAMS TO HELP THE UNEMPLOYED, WE NEED TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THEM– SKILL LEVEL– ETHNIC & RACIAL GROUPS– AGE GROUPS
![Page 13: MAROECONOMIC GOALS WHAT ARE THE COMPONENTS OF GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT? HOW DO WE MEASURE THE ECONOMY TO SEE IF WE ARE MEETING ECONOMIC GOALS?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e975503460f94b9ac9a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

The unemployment rate
number of unemployed
• UR = ---------------------------------- * 100
labor force
![Page 15: MAROECONOMIC GOALS WHAT ARE THE COMPONENTS OF GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT? HOW DO WE MEASURE THE ECONOMY TO SEE IF WE ARE MEETING ECONOMIC GOALS?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e975503460f94b9ac9a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The labor force participation rate
number in labor force
• LFPR = ------------------------------ * 100
adult population
![Page 16: MAROECONOMIC GOALS WHAT ARE THE COMPONENTS OF GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT? HOW DO WE MEASURE THE ECONOMY TO SEE IF WE ARE MEETING ECONOMIC GOALS?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e975503460f94b9ac9a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
CPI – THE CONSUMER PRICE INDEX
current year price
• CPI = --------------------------------- * 100
base year price
![Page 17: MAROECONOMIC GOALS WHAT ARE THE COMPONENTS OF GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT? HOW DO WE MEASURE THE ECONOMY TO SEE IF WE ARE MEETING ECONOMIC GOALS?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e975503460f94b9ac9a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Base year index is always 100
• Subtract the base year index
from any year’s index to determine the percent change in prices from the base year
![Page 18: MAROECONOMIC GOALS WHAT ARE THE COMPONENTS OF GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT? HOW DO WE MEASURE THE ECONOMY TO SEE IF WE ARE MEETING ECONOMIC GOALS?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e975503460f94b9ac9a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Year to year price change
new cpi – old cpi
• Price change = ------------------------ * 100
old cpi
![Page 19: MAROECONOMIC GOALS WHAT ARE THE COMPONENTS OF GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT? HOW DO WE MEASURE THE ECONOMY TO SEE IF WE ARE MEETING ECONOMIC GOALS?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e975503460f94b9ac9a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The cpi
• Measures the price level
• And from this the inflation rate can be calculated
• Includes items people may not buy every year, ie; house, car – thus may overstate actual change in cost of living
![Page 20: MAROECONOMIC GOALS WHAT ARE THE COMPONENTS OF GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT? HOW DO WE MEASURE THE ECONOMY TO SEE IF WE ARE MEETING ECONOMIC GOALS?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e975503460f94b9ac9a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Real vs Nominal GDP
• The growth rate of Real GDP is a better measure of macroeconomic conditions than growth rate of Nominal GDP because nominal GDP includes effects of inflation
• The growth rate of real GDP per capita captures a measure of changes in the standard of living
![Page 21: MAROECONOMIC GOALS WHAT ARE THE COMPONENTS OF GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT? HOW DO WE MEASURE THE ECONOMY TO SEE IF WE ARE MEETING ECONOMIC GOALS?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e975503460f94b9ac9a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
The GDP Deflator
• Real GDP = nominal GDP/the index
![Page 22: MAROECONOMIC GOALS WHAT ARE THE COMPONENTS OF GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT? HOW DO WE MEASURE THE ECONOMY TO SEE IF WE ARE MEETING ECONOMIC GOALS?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e975503460f94b9ac9a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Short-run economic growth
• Measures changes in real output because of more or less labor applied to the existing level of technology and capital stock
• Measured quarter to quarter or year to year
![Page 23: MAROECONOMIC GOALS WHAT ARE THE COMPONENTS OF GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT? HOW DO WE MEASURE THE ECONOMY TO SEE IF WE ARE MEETING ECONOMIC GOALS?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e975503460f94b9ac9a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
The real interest rate
Real rate = nominal rate – rate of inflation
![Page 24: MAROECONOMIC GOALS WHAT ARE THE COMPONENTS OF GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT? HOW DO WE MEASURE THE ECONOMY TO SEE IF WE ARE MEETING ECONOMIC GOALS?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e975503460f94b9ac9a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Long-run growth
• Changes in productive capability through changes in the amount of – Plant, equipment and resources– Technology– Labor force: size
• And Quality– Education and skill level
![Page 25: MAROECONOMIC GOALS WHAT ARE THE COMPONENTS OF GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT? HOW DO WE MEASURE THE ECONOMY TO SEE IF WE ARE MEETING ECONOMIC GOALS?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e975503460f94b9ac9a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
