Answer:
The correct answer is letter "D": short-term financing.
Explanation:
Short-term financing allows companies to obtain capital for their <em>day-to-day operations</em>. The funds obtained are typically used for the transactions companies require during one period -one year, but the term for payment tends to be within six (6) to twenty-four (24) months. Under this scenario, the main purpose of firms is to keep their businesses up and running and obtain profits enough for the payment of the loan and reinvestment in the company.
Answer:
The answers are:
A) 25.23 million people
B) 70.28%
C) 4.92 million people
D) 19.50%
Explanation:
Laborland's total labor force can be calculated by adding those who are employed and those who are unemployed but were searching for a job during the last month.
- 4.6 million (part-time employed) + 15.71 million (full-time employed) + 3.2 million (looked for a job two weeks ago) + 1.72 million (looked for a job between two and four weeks ago) = 25.23 million people
Laborland's labor force participation rate can be calculated by dividing the labor force by the total population.
- (25.23 million / 35.9 million) x 100% = 70.28%
Laborland's total unemployed can be calculated by adding the number of people without a job that searched for a job during the last month.
- 3.2 million + 1.72 million = 4.92 million people
Laborland's unemployment rate can be calculated by dividing the total number of unemployed people by the total work force.
- (4.92 million / 25.23 million) x 100% = 19.50%
Answer:
This leads to a reduction in net income

Answer:
Inelastic; elastic
Explanation:
Goods with inelastic demand curves tend to raise more government revenue compared to goods with the elastic demand curve. An increase in price does not affect the demand of inelastic goods and it remains the same, that is why, governments usually increase the prices of goods that have inelastic demand curve, for example, petrol and toll tax, etc.
