Suppose the working-age population of a fictional economy falls into the following categories: 60 have full-time employment; 20 have part-time employment; 20 do not have employment, but are actively looking for employment; and 10 people are not employed and are not actively looking for employment. {Show all the steps including the relevant formulae & proper units}
(1) What is the size of Labor force
(2) What is the Unemployment rate

1) What is the size of Labor force

?

60 people are full time employed + 20 people who are part-time employed + 20 people who are unemployed = 100 people

20 people who are unemployed / 100 people = 0.2 or 20%

the unemployment rate includes only those people who do not have a job but are willing and able to work, and are currently looking for one.
