Answer:

unemployment rate = (unemployed ÷ labour force) ×100

It will be NIL

Explanation:

Underemployed workers are those who are not working full time in their full capacity therefore they will not be counted as unemployed.

Discouraged workers are those who are not actively looking for job, they will neither be part of the labour force nor will be counted as unemployed.

In this case the unemployment rate will be nil as the discouraged workforce is 15000 this will not be part of the labour force reducing it to be 235,000.

Underemployed workers will not be part of labour force neither are considered unemployed they are not working at their full capacity might be doing part time job or working from home.

This will reduce the labour force from 235,000 to 220,000. As number of employment is 220,000. this means unemployment rate will be nil.

Answer:

c. Neglecting the Other Side’s Problems.

Explanation:

To be an effective negotiator one must understand what his interest is and what he can compromise and the limits to what can be given to the other party (that is no-deal options).

It is even more important to understand the other parties problem. This can be used to guage their interest and how it can be met.

Not considering the counterparty problem is a mistake the negotiating team have made. If the other partie's problem is not understood then there won't be an effective way of negotiating.

Two firms, A and B, each currently emit 100 tons of chemicals into the air. The government has decided to reduce the pollution a
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

20 more tons of pollution into the air, and Firm B will emit 100 fewer tons of pollution into the air.

Explanation:

It is given that :

Amount of tons of pollutants emitted by the two firms A and B earlier = 100 tons

Cost of pollutants by firm A = $ 200 per ton of pollutions

Cost of pollutants by firm B = $ 100 per ton of pollutions

Since the cost for eliminating the pollutants into the air is more for the firm A, the ticket is also more valuable for firm A. And therefore, firm A will buy all the tickets form firm B for an amount around $ 101 to $ 199. It will do so as to have a positive consumer and also to produce surplus.

So firm A will eliminate 20 tons of pollution and will use 80 ton capacity from the tickets. And for firm B, it will eliminate all 100 tons of pollutions.

iris [78.8K]

Answer:

(a). A worker at a Sony plant in Japan buys some Georgia peaches from an American farmer.

-<u> Increase in exports while no change in imports</u>.

(b). The Sony pension fund buys a bond from the U.S. Treasury.

- <u>Decrease in a net outflow of capital. Thus, it would be considered as a negative inflow/outflow</u>.

(c). An American investor buys a controlling share in a South Korean electronics firm.

- <u>Increase in Net Capital outflow for the U.S</u>.

Explanation:

Exports are described as the selling of domestic goods to a foreign country while Imports are characterized as the process of bringing in foreign goods to the domestic country. And Capital outflow is defined as the exact flow of funds from domestic to foreign and foreign to the domestic country.

In the first case, the purchase reflects a rise in exports as the domestic product is sold to the foreign country. In the second situation, the net outflow of the capital would decreases as it demonstrates a foreign purchase of a domestic asset. In the third example, the American investors' purchase of a South Korean firm demonstrates a domestic purchase of a foreign asset and thus, the net capital outflow would rise.
