Answer:

A

Explanation:

To calculate the adult population, we simply make use of the data available from the BLS.

We can simply make the calculations by adding the number of employed Adult Americans to the number of unemployed adult Americans.

We simply do not have any business with the number not in labor force because they are actually part of those that are employed but are not just in the labor force.

The adult population is thus:

143,929,000 + 11,460,000 =155,389,000

Tema [17]

Answer:

c. $1,600

Explanation:

Using high low method we have

Highest cost = $75,000 for 29,000 hours in the month of February.

Lowest Cost = $52,200 for 20,000 hours in the month of January.

Variable Cost per unit = \frac{Change \: in \: cost}{Change \: in \: hours} = \frac{75,000 - 52,200}{29,000 - 20,000}  = $2.533

Or

$52,200 = 20,000 V + F

$75,000 = 29,000 V + F

$22,800 = 9,000 V

$2.53 = V

20,000 V = $50,600

$52,200 - $50,600 = $1,600

Fixed Cost = $1,600

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

ME should make the investment because it results in not only higher market share but also a $24,000 increase in profits.

Explanation:

Currently ME's marketing expenditures represent 25% of the industry's marketing expenditures and it matches his market share. Using the competitive parity approach, three additional market share points should cost $120,000 ($40,000 for each point) and should increase gross profits to a total of $1,344,000 ($144,000 increase).
