Gross Domestic Product (GDP)One of the most important measures
of “how strong” a country is economically is GDP.
GDP is the dollar value of all final goods and services produced within a country's borders in a given year.
The US has the world’s strongest (highest) GDP.
Example: Cars built inside the United States would count towards our GDP.

Business CyclesA business cycle is a period of
macroeconomic expansion (good times!) followed by a period of macroeconomic contraction (bad times).
Business cycles last an average of 4 years, but they can be shorter or longer.
Down periods are normal, but you want to look out for recessions and depressions.
11
Three things that affect the business cycle:1.Interest rates2.External events3.Business investment levels

The Great Depression

The Great Depression during the 1930s was the most significant economic downturn in the history of industrial capitalism.
![Page 14: 1 Anyone have extra credit packets completed? Now or never. What will we learn today? What will we learn today? 12.4.1 Labor unions, procedures, benefits](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062716/56649e045503460f94af05b4/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
UnemploymentNo matter how strong an economy
is, some people will always be unemployed.
In a great economy, unemployment will still be at 4-6%. That’s considered awesome.
Today’s unemployment rate: 10%
nationwide. 12% in CA.
During the Great Depression: 25%

Seasonal and Structural Unemployment
Seasonal unemployment: people lose their jobs because of harvest schedules, or industries slow down or shut down.
Structural unemployment: people lose their job because their skills do not match the jobs available
Today in the US, there are much more service jobs and much less manufacturing jobs (outsourcing).

UnderemploymentUnderemployment is when someone is
working at a job for which they are overqualified, or working part-time when they would rather be working full-time.
If you have a job right now, you might feel underemployed.
A lot of Americans who were laid off from their jobs this past year have taken crappy work. They aren’t reported in the unemployed statistics, but they are underemployed.

The Econ SongTake a information from a chapter of the book and convert
the information into the beat of your favorite song. You are basically re-teaching your assigned chapter, so you
need to be informative. That being said: have fun with this and be comfortable!
The basics:- groups no bigger than two or three (people absent on presentation day affect your grade)
- choose your chapter from a list provided by me - figure out what song you want to use - take a look at your chapter and start turning the info
into notes / song - presentation works best in video form, but I’m willing to
accept live performances - anything inappropriate or use of bad language will result
in an F on the project. Seriously.
