AP宏观经济学真题解析:
本题重点考查生产可能性边界以及失业率和劳动力参工率的计算。
(a) 2 分:
One point is earned for stating that neither country has a comparative advantage in the production of consumer goods.
One point is earned for explaining that both countries have the same opportunity cost of producing one unit of consumer goods which is 0.5 unit of capital goods.
(b) 1 分:
One point is earned for showing that unemployment rate is equal to (10000+5000+5000)/(180000+10000+5000+5000)=10%.
(c) 1 分
One point is earned for showing that the labor force participation rate is equal to (180000+10000+5000+5000)/(180000+10000+5000+5000+100000)=66.67%.
