The key statistic for tracking economic growth is real GDP per capita. Growth in real GDP per capita indicates a country's economic progress over time. Some countries like China and the US have grown notably, while others like Argentina and Zimbabwe have had disappointing growth. Long-run growth depends on rising productivity, which is output per worker. Productivity increases when workers have more capital, education, and technology to work with. The accumulation of innovations and adoption of new technologies are major drivers of productivity and economic growth.Module 40 economic growth in macroeconomic models

Long-run economic growth is defined as a sustained rise in output over time, as opposed to short-term business cycle fluctuations. Growth depends on rising productivity, which is fostered by good policy promoting capital investment, education, technology, and stability. This is shown as an outward shift of the production possibilities curve (PPC) and a rightward shift of the long-run aggregate supply (LRAS) curve. While actual output varies in the short run, potential output increases through long-run growth.Module 38 productivity and growth

The document discusses factors that affect productivity and economic growth, using examples from different regions. It examines how physical capital, human capital, technology, and their combination contribute to productivity. The aggregate production function and growth accounting are introduced to quantify these relationships. Examples from South Korea, Latin America, and Africa illustrate how political stability, education, investment, and other policies impact long-term growth rates. While Africa faces challenges, some nations have achieved increases in productivity and GDP.Economic Update (Nov 2010)

1) Economic growth rates differ across countries due to differences in capital accumulation, human capital development, and technological progress.
2) Governments play an important role in promoting or limiting long-term growth through their influence on physical capital investment, human capital development through education, and technological progress through funding of research.
3) While natural resource scarcity and environmental issues pose challenges, most economists are optimistic that modern economies can overcome these challenges through technology, incentives to conserve resources, and market-based policies to reduce environmental impacts like carbon taxes.Economic Update (July 2011)

Unemployment occurs when able and willing workers cannot find jobs despite actively searching. It means scarce resources are not being used to produce goods and services. Persistently high unemployment has damaging economic and social costs. It is measured using terms like the claimant count and labor force survey. Types of unemployment include seasonal, structural, frictional, and cyclical. Policies aim to stimulate labor demand through macroeconomic stimulus and reducing business costs, as well as labor supply through training, mobility, and work incentives.

The document discusses the natural rate of unemployment, which is the average rate of unemployment around which the economy fluctuates. It is affected by factors like the rates of workers losing jobs and unemployed workers finding jobs. There are two main types of unemployment: frictional unemployment due to the time it takes workers to search for jobs, and structural unemployment caused by wages being rigid above market levels due to things like minimum wages and unions.

Macroeconomics studies the economy as a whole, looking at factors like GDP, unemployment rates, inflation, and how governments can influence economic performance. GDP is the total value of goods and services produced in a country in a year, and can be calculated through expenditures on consumption, government spending, investments, and net exports. Unemployment rates measure what percentage of the labor force is unemployed, and different types of unemployment include structural, frictional, cyclical, and seasonal. Inflation is measured through the Consumer Price Index, which tracks price changes in a basket of consumer goods and is used to calculate inflation rates.Ch 12 presentation

This document discusses macroeconomic concepts including GDP, business cycles, economic growth, and technological progress. It explains that GDP measures the value of final goods and services produced, and economists use GDP and real GDP per capita to analyze economic performance and standards of living. The business cycle consists of expansion, peak, contraction and trough phases influenced by investment, interest rates, expectations and external shocks. Economic growth results from capital deepening, savings, population changes, government policies, and technological advances driven by factors like research, innovation, and education.

The Bangladeshi economy has undergone significant structural changes over the past four decades. The share of agriculture in GDP has declined from over 60% to less than 20%, while industry and services have increased substantially. The manufacturing sector has become increasingly oriented towards ready-made garments, driven by the expansion of the RMG industry. The unemployment rate is low but many workers suffer from underemployment and informal employment. Structural change models focus on how economies transform from agriculture to more modern manufacturing and services. Lewis's model and Chenery's patterns of development analysis are two influential structural change models.PwC Global Economy Watch (oct. 2013)

In October 2013, policymakers are convening in Washington, D.C. as the global economy shows signs of recovery, but advanced economies are still grappling with high unemployment and have lost about 7 million jobs since 2008, while emerging markets created 44 million jobs during the same period. Economic growth is projected to be about 3% for the following year, with the U.S. expected to expand by 2.7% and the Eurozone by just under 1%. Despite recovery signs, high long-term unemployment poses skill loss risks, leading businesses to allocate more resources to training new hires.Kentucky's Global Economy

Finally, the student analyzes specific continents and countries to identify trade partners whose counter-cyclical cycles could help absorb Erie's economic fluctuations through trade. The goal is to build upon past research identifying countries that meet this criterion for stabilizing Erie's regional economy.Unemploy us ragujam

The document discusses the high unemployment in the US and debates the causes. It considers whether the problem is low aggregate demand or supply-side issues. While stimulus measures aimed at boosting demand helped prevent a worse downturn, continued government spending and regulatory uncertainty have increased household savings and made businesses reluctant to invest. A key factor prolonging unemployment is job losses in construction following the housing boom, which will be hard to replace and accounts for up to 3% of total unemployment. Rather than constantly boosting spending, a more sustainable approach is to retrain and reskill the unemployed.March Newsletter

This document provides a 3-paragraph summary of the U.S. economic outlook by Mike Lathigee, Chairman and CEO of Alliance Investment Solutions:
1) Government stimulus money is fading and budget cuts at the federal and state/local levels could further hamper economic growth. Consumer spending rose less than expected and state/local budget cuts reduced spending. Additionally, rising oil prices and inflation pose risks to the recovery.
2) Economic growth needs to be stronger to significantly reduce the 9% unemployment rate, yet budget cuts could constrain growth. A showdown in Congress over the budget threatens a government shutdown, adding uncertainty.
3) Inflation rose 1.6% overall and 0.2%CBO¡¯s Economic Forecast: Understanding Productivity Growth

This document summarizes the current US economic outlook. It notes some positive indicators like improving manufacturing and corporate earnings numbers, but also highlights ongoing challenges. Specifically:
1) While manufacturing and mergers & acquisitions are up, hiring remains slow and unemployment high at 8.8%.
2) The housing market continues to struggle with foreclosures expected to rise again, further depressing home prices.
3) Overall the recovery is sluggish and dependent on improved consumer confidence, which remains weak due to high gas prices, slow wage growth, and concerns about job security.Economic and Business Commentary By Sean Lannan 9-3-10

The US economy continues to show resilience despite uncertainty from the upcoming fiscal cliff. Private consumption has strengthened due to improvements in the housing market and labor market. However, business investment and hiring remain constrained by policy uncertainty, particularly regarding how the large budget deficit will be addressed in the long run. If major fiscal policy issues can be resolved decisively in 2013, businesses may increase spending and hiring to boost economic growth. But continued uncertainty risks prolonging the current sluggish recovery.Economic measurement(1)

The stock market has rallied recently even as the economy remains weak, similar to walking up a downward-moving escalator. Some signs suggest parts of the economy may be stabilizing, like improvements in manufacturing and services sectors. While employment and GDP numbers remain poor, consumer spending increased in the first quarter. Inventories fell sharply but this may help future growth. Other positive signs include rising consumer confidence and stabilizing housing. Many companies exceeded low earnings estimates, and rapid responses from corporations, consumers, and governments may help lead to eventual recovery.Ch 03
