Answer:

a) 469.40%

b) 18.15%

Explanation:

a)

Total nominal growth rate = (\frac{\textup{Earned income in 2016}}{\textup{Earned income in 1976}}-1)\times100\%

thus,

Total nominal growth rate = (\frac{\textup{52,624}}{\textup{9,242}}-1)\times100\%

= 469.40%

b) Total real growth rate = (\frac{\textup{Real earned income in 2016}}{\textup{Real earned income in 1976}}-1)\times100\%

now,

Real earned income in 1976 = \frac{\textup{Earned income in 1976}}{\textup{CPI in 1976}}

=  \frac{\textup{9,242}}{\textup{45.6}\%}

= $20,267.54

and,

Real earned income in 2016 = \frac{\textup{Earned income in 2016}}{\textup{CPI in 2016}}

=  \frac{\textup{52,624}}{\textup{219.75}\%}

= $23,947.21

Therefore,

Total real growth rate = (\frac{\textup{23,947.21 }}{\textup{20,267.54 }}-1)\times100\%

= 18.15%

Why would a sole proprietorship or partnership need to submit a DBA form for the company?
Feliz [49]
If you’re a sole proprietorship  or general partnership, you’ll need to file a DBA if you want your company to operate under a name that’s not your full, legal name, or your partner’s name. That’s because sole props and GPs are unincorporated, and they don’t need to file entity formation papers, and a business entity name, with the state. (Though they do still need to acquire the necessary business licenses and permits.)

So, they and their business are one in the same entity—which means they and their business have the same name, too—unless they file a DBA. 




I hope it helped you!
