Answer:

The earned value of the project=$12,000

Explanation:

The budget for the project is as follows;

Number of houses painted=number of houses every 2 weeks×number of weeks

where;

1 house every 2 weeks=0.5 houses per week

Number of weeks=5 weeks

replacing;

Number of houses painted=(0.5×5)=2.5 houses should be painted after 5 weeks

But since three houses have been painted, we adopt the cost per number of houses painted instead of the cost per week. The earned value of the project is as follows;

Earned value=Budget per house×number of houses painted

where;

Budget per house=$4,000

Number of houses painted=3

replacing;

Earned value=(3×4,000)=12,000

The earned value of the project=$12,000

When the economy is at full​ employment, A. the unemployment rate is greater than zero. B. all remaining unemployment is either
Andrej [43]

Answer:

D. All of the above.

Explanation:

Full employment describes an economic situation where every able and willing worker is employed. It represents a situation where the highest possibles numbers of unskilled and skilled people are in employment. In practice, full employment is when the economy attains the optimal levels of unemployment.

At full employment, the unemployment rate will be above zero percent. The reason is that the economy will always have as frictional unemployment. Frictional unemployment is the time it takes for an individual to find their ideal job. Structural and frictional unemployment contribute about 2 to 3 percent of unemployment in the economy. Economists thus consider a 3  percent unemployment as full employment.

Because Mei-ling has had such a successful first few months, she is considering other opportunities to develop her business. One
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

1. "Would you consider these mixers to be inventory or should they be classified as supplies or equipment?" Why?

The mixers will be part of merchandise inventory since Mei-ling is purchasing them and will later resell them at a higher price and hopefully make a profit. Products classified as supplies or equipment are used by the company in their day to day activities and are not meant for resale.

2. "I’ve learned a little about keeping track of inventory using both the perpetual and the periodic systems of accounting for inventory. Which system do you think is better? Which one would you recommend for the type of inventory that I want to sell?"

The perpetual inventory system is much better than the periodic inventory system, but it is also more expensive to use. Depending on the number of mixers that are going to be sold, you can do it hand or use a computer software which would make things much easier, but you need to spend time (labor) and money to do so.

If Mei-ling is expecting to sell only a small number of mixers, then she could use a periodic inventory system which is much more simple and is only updated every certain period of time (monthly, quarterly, semiannually or annually). This is a cheaper system but it is the best alternative.

3. "How often do I need to count inventory if I maintain it using the perpetual system? Do I need to count inventory at all?"

Even if you use the perpetual inventory system, you will eventually need to physically count your inventory in order to make sure that the records have been properly made, but you could do it once or twice a year. Again it depends on the total units that she expects to have in inventory.

Suppose the country of Lilliput exported $ 293 billion worth of goods and imported $ 405 billion worth of goods in the last cale
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

A trade deficit.

Explanation:

Given that,

Value of exports = $293 billion

Value of imports = $405 billion

Balance of trade refers to the difference between a country's value of exports and its value of imports for a given time period.

Balance of trade:

= Value of exports - Value of imports

= $293 billion - $405 billion

= -$112 billion

Therefore, this country has a negative trade balance and it is reflected as a trade deficit.
