Natural rate of unemployment
((FU + SU) ÷ LF) * 100

NRU is 12.5% if actual rte of unemployment is also 12.5%, we can conclude that there
is no cyclical unemployment in the economy. Since Caladan is operating at the NRU,

, the economy is operating at full employment

If AUR in Caladan is 18.5%. at 18.5% the actual unemployment rate exceeds its natural
rate of 12.5%, indiciating the presence of cylical unemployment. Since the NRU equals
the sum of the FU and SU rates, the difference between the actual rte and the NRU is
equal to the cyclical unemployment rate.
Cyclical unemployment rate is equal to 18.5% - 12.5% = 6%. A recession must have
cause the unemployment rate to soar to 18.5%. The economy is not operating at full
employment, the labor market is weak, and output if failing
