  1. There are four main types of unemployment in an economy—frictional, structural, cyclical, and seasonal—and each has a different cause.
  2. If the minimum wage rate increases, employers will want to hire fewer employees. The quantity of labor demanded will decrease, and there will be a movement upward along the demand curve. If the wages and salaries decrease, employers are more likely to hire a greater number of workers.
  3. The Phillips curve shows the relationship between inflation and unemployment. In the short-run, inflation and unemployment are inversely related; as one quantity increases, the other decreases. In the long-run, there is no trade-off. In the 1960's, economists believed that the short-run Phillips curve was stable.
