Unemployment rate
In 2017-18, the Pakistan Bureau of Statistics announced that of all adult Pakistanis, 59,786,200 were employed, 3,613,800 were unemployed, and 58,800,000 were not in the labor force. Use this information to calculate the adult population.
Describe in detail the household survey of unemployment and, in the context of the survey, explain what is meant the terms below and give the number or rate of each based on the table below for the following dates-- December 2007; June 2009; and February 2020, Arpil 2020, May 2020, and January 2021:
the unemployment rate
the labor force participation rate
if the answer for '2' in December 2007 were the same as in February 2020 and the number of employed in February 2020 remained the same at 158,759,000, how many people would be unemployed in February 2020 and what, therefore, would the unemployment rate be in February 2020?
