Answer:
Frictional unemployment occurs when people decided to leave their jobs and look for another or people join the labor force for the first time.
Structural unemployment arises from a situation where there is a mismatch between the skills needed in an economy and the skills possessed by people. Happens a lot when employees need to adapt to new technology.
Cyclical unemployment happens as a result of the economy either growing or shrinking.
a. Andrew recently lost his job as an accountant for a large firm because he only knows how to perform the job using a general ledger (paper and pencil), and has been unwilling to learn how to use newly invented accounting software provided by the company. ⇒ <u>STRUCTURAL UNEMPLOYMENT. </u>
b. Sam recently lost his job as an accountant for a large firm because he only knows how to perform the job a using a general ledger and has been unwilling to learn how to use newly invented accounting software provided by the company. ⇒ <u>STRUCTURAL UNEMPLOYMENT.</u>
c. Teresa just graduated from college and is looking for a full time position with an investment banking firm. ⇒ <u>FRICTIONAL UNEMPLOYMENT. </u>
d. A recent recession has reduced the number visitors to a local theme park. The park has had to lay off many of its employee, including Beth. ⇒ <u>CYCLICAL UNEMPLOYMENT. </u>
Answer:
Explanation:
Price is sum of:
1. Present value of expected dividend payments during 1-4 years;
2. Present value of the expected market price at the end of the fourth year based on growth at 5%.
Present value of expected dividend payments during 1-4 years:
PV1 = 3*(1+0.30)*0.8929 = 3.90*0.8929 = $3.482
*0.8929 = 1/1.12
PV2 = 3.90*1.30*0.7972 = 5.07*0.7972 = $4.042
PV3 = 5.07*1.30*0.7118 = 6.591*0.7118 = $4.691
PV4 = 6.591*1.30*0.6355 = 8.5683*0.6355 = $5.445
Total = $17.661
Present value of the expected market price at the end of the fourth year:
Market price of the share at the end = 5th year dividend/(Required rate of return - growth rate)
5th year dividend = $8.5683*(1+growth rate) = $8.5683*(1+0.05) = $9
Market price of the share at the end = $9/(0.12-0.05) = $128.57
Present value of $128.57 is 128.57*0.6355(present value interest factor for year 4) = $81.7
So the price of share is $17.661+$81.7 = $99.37
Answer:
C. less than 1
Explanation:
Supply is elastic if producers can increase output without a rise in cost or a time delay which means Price elasticity of supply is more than 1.
Supply is inelastic if producers find it hard to change production in a given time period which means Price elasticity of supply is less than 1.
When Price elasticity of supply equals 0 then supply is perfectly inelastic.
