This takes place during times of decreased economic growth or times of economic slowdown.
Cyclical unemployment is directly linked to the degree of macroeconomic behavior, which is the combined or collective activity of all economically involved individuals and entities.

Answer:
option (D) 10.34
Explanation:
The inventory turnover ratio for 2016 will be given as:
= [Cost of goods sold ] ÷ Average inventory
also,
Cost of goods sold in 2016 = $148,669
Average inventory = [ 2015 inventory + 2016 inventory ] ÷ 2
= [ 14,001 + 14,760 ] ÷ 2
= 28761 ÷ 2
= 14,380.5
Therefore,
The inventory turnover ratio for 2016 = $148,669 ÷ 14,380.5
= 10.34

Answer: GNP; GDP
Explanation:
<em>The value of what a Canadian-owned Tim Hortons produces in South Korea is included in the Canadian </em><em><u>GNP </u></em><em>and the South Korean </em><em><u>GDP</u></em><em>. </em>
Gross National Product refers to the total amount of domestic production and foreign production that can be attributed to the residents of a nation.
This means that GNP includes the GDP and income earned by residents of the country in other countries but less the income earned by foreigners in the country. For Canada therefore, the value of goods produced by the Canadian company in South Korea will be added to the GNP.
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) on the other hand is simply the total final value of goods and services produced in a country regardless of if it was foreigners or residents doing the production. The value of what a Canadian-owned Tim Hortons produces in South Korea is therefore included in South Korea's GDP.
