1.
Explain how monitoring economic measures helps economists
achieve the three goals of a healthy economy.
Monitoring economic measures helps economists quickly notice
changes in productivity, employment, and prices, and determine when
the government should respond to changing conditions; for example,
by lowering interest rates to spur the economy.

2.
Describe the effect of high unemployment on a nation’s economy.
High unemployment has a negative effect on a nation’s economy. The
unemployed cannot make purchases so companies produce less and
cut back on capital projects. Tax revenue decreases. Unemployment
benefits cause state governments to reduce spending.
Section 3.2
Understanding the Economy
Section 3.2
3.
Describe what happens to an employee in each phase of the business
cycle.
During an expansion, jobs are readily available and wages typically
increase; employees can move from one job to another fairly easily. In
a recession, employees may be laid off and finding another job can be
difficult. In a trough, jobs are typically scarce but may gradually
become more plentiful. In a recovery, more jobs become available as
the economy grows and workers may see their wages increase,
enabling them to increase their standards of living.
