Question

Which of the following is an example of a macroeconomic statement?

Lay-offs have led to increasing unemployment in the RV industry.

John Smith was recently laid off from his job at Thor.

The Elkhart County unemployment rate is 2%.

The national unemployment rate is 4%.

Answer 1

The national unemployment rate is 4%

Step-by-step explanation:

The following statement is an example of a macroeconomic statement: "The national unemployment rate is 4%."

A macroeconomic statement refers to an economic statement or analysis that focuses on the broader economy as a whole rather than on individual markets or companies. In this case, the statement about the national unemployment rate refers to the overall labor market in the country and not to a specific company or industry. The other statements are either about an individual's experience (John Smith's layoff) or a specific regional unemployment rate (Elkhart County's unemployment rate).
