In this paper the author tried to find out the long run association between unemployment rate, GDP growth rate and income inequality in the post independent period in India from 1951 to 2023 by applying cointegration and vector error correction model. The paper found out that there is one cointegrating equation among the three variables where VECM implies that the change of unemployment rate and GDP growth rate is inversely related while the change of unemployment and the change of income inequality is positively related in the long run. The former is significant and the latter is insignificant in case of cointegrating equation which is convergent towards equilibrium with a speed of adjustment of 2.4% per year. There is short run causality between unemployment rate, GDP growth rate and income inequality. The VECM is stable and non-stationary having autocorrelation and multivariate normality problems.
This study examines the implications of exchange rate gaps on key macroeconomic indicators in Nigeria, focusing on foreign exchange reserves, GDP growth rates, and the current account balance. Using empirical analysis over a time series framework from 1980 to 2022, the study implements linear and non-linear ARDL methodologies. Findings indicate that exchange rate gaps significantly negatively impact Nigeria's foreign exchange reserves, GDP growth, and current account balance. Policy recommendations include infrastructure investment, sectoral diversification, and sound monetary policies to mitigate inflationary pressures exacerbated by exchange rate volatility.
