Description
The purpose of this assignment is to develop your data analysis skills and put into practice your understanding of several topics that have been covered in class thus far. This assignment is divided into two parts: (1) GDP, price indices and inflation; and (2) labor force, labor force participation and unemployment. Each part is worth fifty points. Your grade will be based on both the accuracy of the content and the quality of the presentation. You should see this also as an opportunity to develop your presentation skills. The assignment is due Wednesday, November 27th in class (you may also email your assignment before the class begins). No late assignments will be accepted, no exceptions, so do not waste your time asking.
Group Policy: You may work in groups, as long as each member of the group submits their
own assignment. You must also inform me who are the members of the group. If I see two
identical assignments without properly indicating that you worked in a group, I will only grade
the first assignment that was submitted.
