Answer:

CPI washinton 100

CPI Austin 45

or

CPI Washinton 222

CPI Austin 100

Explanation:

We need a CPI that equalise the salary of 200,000 in Washington DC and the 90,000 in Austin Texas

if Washinton DC is the base, and their CPI is 100

how much does the CPI of Austin needs to be to make 200,000 in Washinton equal to 90,000 in Austin?

200,000\frac{CPI_a}{100} = 90,000

90,000/200,000 x 100 = CPI

CPI = 45

A CPI of 100 in Washinton

and a CPI of 45 in Austion make the two salaries have the same purchasing power.

If we use Austin as a base:

100/45 x 100 = 222.22222

Then the CPI for Austin is 100

and the CPI for Washinton 222

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

$1,440 per machine

Explanation:

The computation of the cost per machine is shown below:

= Total cost ÷ number of machine completed

where,

Total cost = Material cost + direct labor cost + manufacturing overhead applied cost + beginning work in process cost - ending work in process cost

= $15,000 + $11,000 + $7,000 + $11,000 - $8,000

= $36,000

And, the number of machine completed is 25

So, the cost per machine is

= $36,000 ÷ 25 machines

= $1,440 per machine

TEA [102]

Answer:

fall

rise

frictional

b. Improving a widely used job-search website so that it matches workers to job vacancies more effectively

Explanation:

A fall in the price of steel would reduce the profitability of producing steel for steel producing companies. Hence, the supply of steel would fall. as a result, less labour would be needed, so the demand for labour would fall.

A fall in the price of steel would reduce the cost of producing cars and thus increase the production of cars. as a result, more labour would be employed to make cars.

Frictional unemployment is when labour is unemployed between the time he leaves his current employment and time he finds another. by improving on the job search website, workers would be matched faster with available jobs, this frictional unemployment would decrease.
