Abstract Purpose: The purpose of the research is to investigate impact of population ageing on unemployment and entrepreneurial activity in Slovenia since it is one of the topical issues in an ageing Europe and has many implications for economic and non-economic welfare. Design and Methodology: First, we introduce the phenomenon of population ageing and provide some literature review on population ageing impact on unemployment and entrepreneurial activity. Second, we employ multiple regression analysis on cross-section data for Slovenian municipalities. We use secondary data collected from databases of Statistical Office of Republic of Slovenia and Employment Service of Slovenia on demographic and economic variables by 210 municipalities for the year 2009. Results: The regression analysis results confirm our first hypothesis: municipalities with higher ageing index and higher average age also have higher registered unemployment rate. If ageing index (average age) is higher by 1 %, the registered unemployment rate is higher on average by 0.532 % to 0.670 % (by 2.431 % to 3.379 %), ceteris paribus. Our regression analysis also confirms our second hypothesis: municipalities with higher average age also have lower number of enterprises per 100 population. If average age is higher by 1% (by 1 year), the number of enterprises per 100 population is lower on average by 1.7 % (by 0.182 enterprises), ceteris paribus. Conclusion: We may conclude that population ageing without properly addressing it, consequently leads into lower economic welfare. That additionally highlights the importance of a proper demographic and social policy when governing labour market policy.

This study discuses Short-term cost interpretation, regression analysis with time-series data, long term cost interpretation, Regression analysis using cross-section data, cost forecasting and Changes in the productivity of production factors. Short-term cost interpretation lead to short-term decisions, the concept of incramental costs has a very important role which includes variable costs and changes in fixed costs.  Long term cost interpretation to analyze the production function of several different firms, long-run cost estimates can be used. Based on these conditions, the estimation of long-term costs uses cross-section data. Forecasting costs for various levels of output in the coming period requires an assessment of changes in the efficiency of the production process physically, plus changes in the prices of production factors used in the production process.

This study aims to research the causality relationship between industrial agglomeration in labor, fisheries production, and fisheries households in Tanggamus district. The agglomeration index measured using the Balassa Hoover Index analysis tool and Geographic Information System (GIS) using Geoda. The data used are secondary data obtained directly from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), the Department of Fisheries and Maritime Affairs of Tanggamus Regency. The number of cross-section data is 20 districts in the period 2012-2016. analyzed using the Granger Causality Analysis method. The Hoover Ballassa index results show a strong degree of agglomeration in only 6 districts. The results of the analysis of the relationship between states of origin state that there is a unidirectional causality between the agglomeration and labor variables, which statistically significantly influence the agglomeration and do not apply otherwise. Unidirectional causality occurs between agglomeration variables and fisheries production only fisheries production which statistically significantly influences agglomeration and does not apply vice versa. Unidirectional causality occurs between agglomeration variables and fisheries households ie only fishery households that statistically significantly influence agglomeration and do not apply otherwise.
