growth rate in potential GDP - labor vs. labor forece

growth rate in potential GDP =

long-term growth rate of technology + α (long-term growth rate in capital) + (1 – α) (long-term growth rate in labor )

growth rate in potential GDP =

long-term growth rate of _ labor force _ + long-term growth rate in labor productivity

What’s the relationship between labor and labor force here? Thanks.

Same thing, I believe.

+1 same thing

Thanks. But how to derive the formula from first to second?

Same here, are we supposed to use one or the other formula depending of the inputs given ?

2 different formulas and have to know both in order to calculate potential GDP growth rate depending on the inputs given in the exam

Thanks
