Correct answer is B)

Structural unemployment is due to structural changes in the economy that eliminate some jobs while generating job openings for which unemployed workers are not qualified. Cyclical unemployment results from short-term deviations from "full employment."

Q2. The natural rate of unemployment exists when:

A)   the economy operates below full employment.

B)   structural unemployment is zero.

C)   the economy operates at full employment.

Correct answer is C)

The natural rate of unemployment exists when the economy operates at full employment. At full employment, cyclical unemployment is zero.

Q3. When individuals are unemployed because they do not have perfect information concerning available jobs, this is:
