Answer:
The answer is 60%
Explanation:
Labor force is the total number of people that have job(employed) and the number of people who are willing, able and actively searching for job(unemployed) in a population.
Labor force participation rate is calculated by dividing the labor force by the noninstitutionalized population.
Labor force = employed + underemployed + unemployed
= 96 + 31 + 8
=135 million
So we have:
(135 ÷ 243) x 100 percent.
60% (the nearest whole percentage)
Answer:
Yes.
Explanation:
Market rate of exchange of jello for pie:
= Price of a piece of apple pie ÷ Price of jello
= $3.75 ÷ $1.25
= 3.00
At his current consumption point, Nick's marginal rate of substitution (MRS) of jello for pie = 3
Since MRS = Px/Py, hence, at this point of consumption bundle he is having a maximum level of utility.
Therefore, there is no need to change his consumption bundle because he is already at his maximum level.
Answer:
31.47%
Explanation:
Total investment = 4000 + 3000 +9000 = $16,000
% of investment in A = 4000/16000 = 25%
% of investment in B = 3000/16000 = 18.75%
% of investment in Asset beta and risk-free asset = 100% - 25% -18.75% = 56.25%
Let the % of investment in asset with beta of 1.74 is A, % of investment in risk free asset is B.
We have the following simultaneous equations:
0.9 = (0.25 x 1.47) + (0.1875 x 0.54) + (A x 1.74) + (B x 0)
A+B = 56.25%
From the first equation, we get A = 24.78%
--> B = 56.25% - 24.78% = 31.47%
*** Note: Portfolio beta is the weighted sum of individual asset betas, according to the proportions of the investments in the portfolio
*** Note: Beta of risk free asset is 0
