Need help with my Macro Economics question – I’m studying for my class.
ECON102
W1
Discuss the three primary concerns in macroeconomic analysis.
W2
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the broadest measure of output for an economy. However, GDP does not perfectly measure well-being of a nation and its citizens’ welfare. Discuss what GDP is and what it measures? Discuss what the shortcomings (limitations) of GDP as a measure of well-being and welfare of a nation are?
W3
What are the three types of unemployment? Unemployment is seen by some as undesirable. Are all three types of unemployment undesirable? Could the advent of the Internet completely eliminate frictional unemployment? Are all three types of unemployment undesirable? Explain.
W4
Classical economists belief that prices and quantities adjust to the changes in the forces of supply and demand and that the economy produces its potential output in the long run. On the contrary, Keynesian economists believe because of price and wage rigidities the economy’s equilibrium output in the long run may be less than its potential output. What is price-wage rigidity? Do you agree with Keynes assessment that wage-price rigidity requires government’s involvement in the markets? Why? Why not?
