Answer:
a. The actual unemployment rate was higher during the recession of 1990-1991, but cyclical unemployment was higher in 2001.
Explanation:
Unemployment is defined as the number of people in a population that are willing to work and seeking for jobs but do not have employment.
Natural unemployment is defined as the normal process of leaving jobs and getting jobs in a situation when there is full employment.
Cyclical unemployment is created by recessions and booms.
Actual unemployment = Natural rate + Cyclical rate
Cyclical unemployment= Actual rate - Natural rate
In the first economy
Cyclical rate = 7 - 5.9= 1.1%
In the second economy
Cyclical rate= 6 - 4.8= 1.2%
So actual unemployment was 7% in 1990-1991 while in 2001 it was 6%
Cyclical unemployment was 1.1% in 1990-1991, while cyclical unemployment was 1.2%
Answer:
A. a matrix structure.
Explanation:
A matrix organizational structure is a type work structure where reporting relationships between employees are set up as a matrix rather than the conventional hierarchy approach. This simply means, there are two (2) chains of command; employees have dual reporting relationships to both a project and functional manager.
The matrix organizational structure can be classified into three (3) categories, these are;
1. Weak matrix structure.
2. Balanced matrix structure.
3. Strong matrix structure.
In project management, a strong matrix is also known as the project matrix and it basically refers to a matrix project that is significantly similar or having close resemblance with the pure project. In the strong matrix structure, the project manager controls most of the project activities and functions, including the assignment and control of project resources.
This ultimately implies that the project manager primarily holds a full-time role and has a sole authority, and as such control the budget. The role of the functional manager is usually minimal.
Hence, a project organization structure where team members report to a functional manager as well as to the project manager is called a matrix structure.
Answer:
$ 1844
Explanation:
A = P (1 + r / n) ^ nt ; where
A = Final Amount , P = Principal base, r = Interest rate , t = no. of time periods (usually years) , n = compounding in a time period (annually)
Given : P = 1700 , r = 2% , t = 4 , n = 12
A = 1700 [ 1 + 0.02 / 12 ] ^ (12 x 4)
1700 [ 1 + 0.0017 ] ^ (12 x 4)
1700 [ 1.0017 ] ^ 48
1700 [1.0849]
= 1844
