, and 15.71 million are working full time. Laborland used the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) definitions for unemployment date. Among those not working, the most recent job search activity for 3.20 million happened less than two weeks ago, while 1.72 million most recently looked for work between two and four weeks ago. An additional 0.86 million most recently looked for work five weeks ago, the remaining 9.81 million who don't have jobs have not looked for work in the past six weeks. Round your answers to two decimal places

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%

maxProfit (k , profit): n = len(profit) rotate = n // 2

windowSum = float('-inf') iterator = 0

Conclusion: The products which are showing positive trend in the market should be placed visible for the next quarter. The products products profit is estimated to be equal to cost to invest which the price of product plus its launching expense.

Formula: The maximum profit a seller can achieve through this strategy is (k , profit):

b) Debit Work in Process $232,000

   Debit Manufacturing overhead $58,000

   Credit Raw materials account $290,000

To record the transfer of raw materials to WIP and Overhead.

f. Debit Work In Process $300,000

   Credit Manufacturing Overhead $300,000

To record the overhead applied on the basis of 15,000 machine hours at $20 per machine hour.

2. T-accounts:

Manufacturing overhead

Account Title                   Debit        Credit

Raw materials             $58,000

Wages & Salaries        120,000

Depreciation- Equip.     75,000

Expense Payable          62,000

Work in Process                             $300,000

Finished Goods                                   15,000

Finished Goods

Account Title                     Debit        Credit

Work in Process           $592,000

Manufacturing overhead  15,000

3. Journal Entry for item (g):

Debit Finished Goods $607,000

Credit Work in Process $592,000

Credit Manufacturing overhead $15,000

To record the cost of manufactured parts, including the under-applied overhead.

4. Cost of goods sold = 10,000 *$607,000/16,000 = $379,375

(While Ending Inventory = 6,000 *$607,000/16,000 = $227,625.)

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Estimated manufacturing overhead = $4,800,000

Estimated machine hours = 240,000

Overhead rate = $4,800,000/240,000 = $20 per machine hour

Actual cost data for January:

Number of machine parts = 16,000

Raw materials purchased on account = $325,000

Raw materials cost:

 Direct materials = $232,000 (80% of $290,000)

 Indirect materials = $58,000 (20% of $290,000)

Labor cost

 Direct labor = $60,000 ($180,000 * 1/3)

 Indirect labor = $120,000 ($180,000 * 2/3)

Manufacturing overhead:

 Depreciation = $75,000

 Others = $62,000

 Indirect materials = $58,000

 Indirect labor = $120,000

Total actual overhead incurred = $315,000

Machine hours actually worked = 15,000

b) Other Accounts

1. Expenses Payable

Account Title                   Debit        Credit

Manufacturing overhead               62,000

2. Depreciation Expense - Equipment

Account Title                   Debit        Credit

Manufacturing overhead              $75,000

3. Raw Materials Account

Account Title                   Debit        Credit

Accounts Payable      $325,000

Work in Process                             $232,000

Manufacturing overhead                   58,000

4. Accounts Payable

Account Title                   Debit        Credit

Raw Materials                                $325,000

c) The manufacturing overhead applied is $300,000 (15,000 machines hours actually used multiplied by $20 overhead rate), while the actual overhead costs incurred total $315,000.  So there is an under-applied overhead of $15,000 which is charged to Finished Goods in order to obtain the correct cost of 16,000 custom-made machined parts.
