If the required rate of return is 7.2%, no such security shall be purchased.

<h3>What does the required rate of return mean?</h3>

The required rate of return is the expected percentage of returns on investment at the time the investment is made. The required rate of return, in this case, is 7.2%.

The actual returns earned from purchasing the security for $8000 and receiving returns of $3600 are calculated to be around a 3.6% return.

As a result, if the required rate of return on investment is 7.2%, the security should not be purchased.

Suppose an economy has 10,000 people who are not working but looking and available for work and 90,000 people who are working. W
Daniel [21]
<h3>In the given scenario unemployment rate is 10% </h3>

Explanation:

In the given problem,

Number of People who are working is 90,000

Number of People who are not working but looking and available is 10,000

Unemployment rate = Percentage of the total labor force that is unemployed but actively looking for employment and ready to  work.  

Unemployment rate = ((Unemployed people * 100) / (Total people in an economy (Working + Available for work)))

Unemployment rate = ((10000 * 100) / (90000+10000))

Unemployment rate = (1000000 / 100000)

Hence, Unemployment rate = 10%

Paw Salon currently services an average of 74 pets per day. Observations in recent weeks show that its utilization is about 90 p
Liula [17]

Answer:

50 customers per day

Explanation:

For computing the capacity required customers per day, first, we have to  compute the current demand per day which is shown below:

Current demand = Average number of  pets per day × estimated percentage

= 74 pets × 60%

=  44.4 per day

Now the capacity required per day would be

= (Current demand per day) ÷ (1 -  capacity cushion percentage)

= 44.2 ÷ (1 - 0.12)

= 50.22 per day
