Answer:

a) 29%

Explanation:

The formula to compute the unemployment rate is shown below:

Unemployment rate = (Number of Unemployed workers) ÷ (Total labor force) × 100

where,

Number of unemployed = 40 million

Total labor force = Number of unemployed + number of employed

                            = 40 million + 100 million

So, the unemployment rate would be

= (40 million) ÷ (140 million) × 100

= 29%

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:            ke = D1/Po + g

                 0.1025 = D1/57.50 + 0.06

        0.1025-0.06 = D1/57.50

            0.0425     = D1/57.50

                      D1    = 0.0425 x 57.50

                      D1    = $2.444

           

Explanation: Cost of equity is equal to dividend in 1 year's time divided by the current market price plus the growth rate. Other variables were provided in the question except the dividend at the end of the year (D1).

Thus, D1 becomes the subject of the formula. The appropriate cost of equity is $2.44. The correct answer is B.

From June to the end of September, Jennifer wants to save at least $1,500. Her monthly expenses are $600. Jennifer saves whateve
kakasveta [241]

The minimum sales required by Jennifer to meet her savings goal must be $26.25 per hour or $2100 for September.

Given that,

Savings desired = $1500

Monthly expenses = $600

Let money earned by her every hour be x

No. of scheduled work hours = 80

So,

Total money earned for the month = 80 × x

= 80x

As we know,

Money left = Total money earned - expenses

= 80x - $600 ...(i)

A.T.Q.

Money left must be = $1500

Then, by putting the variables in equation (i), we get

80x - 600 = 1500

Now, solving for  x

80x - 600 = 1500

        +600 = + 600

_______________

80x = 2100

x = 2100/80

∵ x = 26.25

Thus, the required sales are $ 26.25 per hour or ( 26.25 × 80 = $2100) for the month of September.
