Answer to Question 1

Answer to Question 2

Full employment exists when approximately 95 percent of the civilian labor force is employed. This implies a natural rate of unemployment of approximately 5 percent. The natural rate of unemployment consists of the frictionally and structurally unemployed. The only other type of unemployment is cyclical unemployment.
