The bathtub model of unemployment revisited - Lt is the labor force, Ut is the number of unemployed workers and Et the number of employed workers in period t. The separation rate and the job finding rate in period t are correspondingly st and ft. Assume that Lt+1 = (1 + n) Lt and a share dt of the new workers, Lt+1 Lt, are employed immediately as they enter the labor force.
