Ainat [17]

Answer:

a) unemployment rate = 15

b) unemployment rate = 2.5

Explanation:

unemployed people are those who are willing and available to work and have actively been seeking a job in the past four weeks. This accurately describes the 12 people who are willing, able and looking for work but cannot find jobs. To calculate the unemployment rate in percentage, the following formula is used:

unemployment\ rate = \frac{number\ of\ unemployed}{labour\ force} \times 100\\

Where:

a) Number of unemployed = 12

Labour force = 80 (number of people over 16 years of age)

\therefore unemployment\ rate = \frac{12}{80} \times 100 = 0.15 \times 100 = 15\\

b) if 10 of the unemployed people get discouraged and give up looking for work, the number of unemployed becomes 2 persons, (12 - 10 = 2).

\therefore unemployment\ rate = \frac{2}{80} \times 100 = \frac{200}{80} =  2.5

Answer:

<em>Cost of completed WIP:</em> 30,240

<em>Total cost of tranferreed-out:</em> 729,990

Explanation:

<em><u>We assume it works with weighted-average process costing</u></em>

Beginning 9,000 50% = 4,500   $22,050

Finished goods 207,000 units

Direct Materials 212,000 units at $1.6

Direct labor       $276,000

Overhead          $<u> 107,400    </u>

Total Overhead $383,400

started   212,000 units

<u>finished 207,000 units</u>

ending       5,000 units at 75%

EU Conversion Cost 207,000 + 5,000 x 75% =  210,750

<em>Cost per equivalent unit: 383,400 / 210,750 = 1,819217</em>

Cost of beginning WIP comepleted

22,050 beginning + 1.82 x 4,500 =  30,240

Cost of the units transferred to finished goods:

    22,050 beginning WIP balance

+ 207,000 x $1.6 materials

<u>+ 207,000 x $1.82 conversion cost  </u>
