Other things the same, the unemployment rate A. and the labor force participation rate are both unaffected B. is unaffected, and the labor-force participation rate increases. c. and the labor force participation rate both increase. D, increases, and the labor-force participation rate is unaffected.

Answer 1

D. increases, and the labor-force participation rate is unaffected.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the students pass out from a university or high school and are looking for a job but unable to get a suitable one will definitely increase the unemployment rate but since Sirius has not yet started working so labor-force participation rate will be unaffected by his unemployment. There will be no effect on the labor-force participation rate but unemployment rate will increase.
