QUESTION 1 (20 MARKS)

In the labour market employers have to compete with each other for human resources. Workers 'supply' some of their time and effort to organisations for a wage while the organisations 'demand' labour in order to produce goods and services. Based on the above situation, discuss its impact on the labor market equilibrium with the aid of a diagram.

QUESTION 2

Unemployment has several disadvantages. It has an enormous social cost for individuals and communities. It leads to a considerable waste of resources. For example, for approximately 20 years prior to the Second World War, unemployment averaged at least 10 in this country with idle machines, factories and employees. Rises in unemployment lead to falls in consumer spending. A small fall in consumer demand can lead to a much bigger overall change in incomes and spending. This cycle is known as the multiplier.

a. Explain the impact of unemployment on the individuals and communities in the long run. (8 marks)
