Answer:

a) X = 14.7%

b) X = 140%

c) X = 10.76%

d) X = 5.83%

e) X = 40%

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

a) Let the tax rate be = X%

then 0+(X × 10,000)÷100+(X × 130,000)÷100+(X × 240,000)÷100 = $56,000

100X+1,300X+2,400X = $56,000

X = $56,000÷3,800

= 14.7%

b) ((X × 10,000)÷100)× 4 = $56,000

400X = $56,000

X = 140%

c) ((X × 130,000)÷100)×4 = $56,000

5,200 X = $56,000

X = 10.76%

d) ((X × 240,000)÷100 )×4 = $56,000

9,600 X = $56,000

X = 5.83%

e) X× 0+(X × 10,000)÷100+(X × 130,000)÷100 = $56,000

1,400 X = $56,000

X = 40%

Dafna11 [192]

2015 $31,500

2016 $31,500

2017 $31,500

Number of Options in total × Fair Value of the Stock per option

=$6,300 ×$15

= $ 94,500

Compensation expense will be:

2015, 2016, and 2017 will give us 3 years

= $94,500/3

= $31,500 for 2015, 2016, and 2017

Fair value of the options is said to be evaluated on grant date and expenditure is been recognised in 3 years because the employee will be working for 3 years which is from year 2015 to 2017

Unions contribute to
Len [333]

Answer:

The correct answer is D: neither frictional nor structural unemployment

Explanation:

Structural unemployment is a form of unemployment where, at a given wage, the quantity of labor supplied exceeds the quantity of labor demanded because there is a fundamental mismatch between the number of people who want to work and the number of available jobs. It is generally considered to be one of the “permanent” types of unemployment, where improvement if possible, will only occur in the long run.

Structural unemployment is a longer-lasting form of unemployment <u>caused </u>by fundamental shifts in an economy and exacerbated by extraneous factors such as technology, competition, and government policy. The unemployed workers may lack the skills needed for the jobs, or they may not live in the part of the country or world where the jobs are available. Structural unemployment can last for decades and may need radical change to redress the situation.

<u>There is not a direct link between unions and structural unemployment. The main causes are economy shifts, lack of preparation, competiton (for example, factories moving overseas), government policy,  technology shifts, etc.</u>

Frictional unemployment is the time period between jobs when a worker is searching for or transitioning from one job to another. It can be voluntary based on the circumstances of the unemployed individual. Frictional unemployment exists because both jobs and workers are heterogeneous, and a mismatch can result between the characteristics of supply and demand. Such a <u>mismatch can be related to skills, payment, work-time, location, seasonal industries, attitude, taste, and a multitude of other factors.</u>

There is always at least some frictional unemployment in an economy. Economists accept that some frictional unemployment is okay because both potential workers and employers take some time to find the best employee-position match.

<u>There is no direct contribution that unios made to generate or increase frictional unemployment. It causes are found in the description above.</u>

For incentive pay to motivate employees to contribute to the organization's success, the pay plans must be well designed. Which
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

C. Employees value the rewards or incentives that are being offered

Explanation:

Let's see the different options for answer...

<u>A. Performance measures are to be linked to the individual's goals</u>

No.  Even if the performance measures should be linked to the individual's goals, just the mere existence of such KPI is not sufficient to motivate employees.   There has to be some performance reward attached to it.

<u>B. Employees are given very broad performance goals</u>

No. To get a good performance and motivate employees, they must be given clear goals and objectives.

<u>C. Employees value the rewards or incentives that are being offered</u>

Yes.  Even if you have good performance measurements, with realistic goals, the employees won't be motivated to reach those goals if the reward doesn't worth the effort.

<u>D. Employees are given limited resources to meet their goals</u>

No. They won't be motivated if they don't think they have the means to achieve those goals.
