Answer: a. 24.05 million

b. 66.99%

c. 4.62 million

d. 19.21%

Explanation:

a. Total Labor force is the sum total of people who are employed and those who are actively looking for work. The Bureau of Labor Statistics defines actively looking for work as looking for work int he past 4 weeks.

= Part-time workers + full time workers + those who looked for work in the past 2 weeks + those who looked for work in the past 2 - 4 weeks

= 4.9 million + 14.53 million + 2.90 million + 1.72 million

= 24.05 million

b. labor force participation rate is the percentage of a country's non-institutionalized working age population that are actively looking for work. Its formula = \frac{total labor force}{non-institutionalized working age population} X 100

Laborland's labor force participation rate (%) = \frac{24.05 million }{35.9 million }X 100

= 66.99%

c. Unemployed  People by the standards of the Bureau of Labor Statistics are the people who have looked for work in the past 4 weeks and are still employed. That is  those who looked for work in the past 2 weeks + those who looked for work in the past 2 - 4 weeks.

= 2.90 million + 1.72 million

= 4.62 million

d. Unemployment rate is the percentage of the labor force that are actively looking for work and are still out of work.

Unemployment rate = \frac{unemployed}{labor force} x 100

= \frac{4.62 million}{ 24.05 million} x 100

=19.21%

Which answer is not a cost to the investor that is included in the calculation of an investment's interest rate
jeyben [28]

Answer:

Risk of a bad investment

Explanation:

When an investor is calculating an investment's interest rate, he/she must include all brokerage commissions and fees , inflation rate (interest rate must exceed the inflation rate) and the investor's opportunity cost.

Investors are risk adverse, which means that a risky investment should yield a higher return. That could be considered a rational investment rule, but it is not included in the calculation of the interest rate.

He offers an annual bonus of $10,000 for superior performance, $6,000 for good performance, $3,000 for fair performance, and $0
Alik [6]

If he offers an annual bonus of $10,000 for superior performance, $6,000 for good performance, $3,000 for fair performance, and $0 for poor performance. Based on prior records, he expects an employee to perform at superior, good, fair, and poor performance levels with probabilities 0.10, 0.20, 0.50, and 0.20, respectively. The expected value of the annual bonus amount will be: $3,700

First step

Expected value for Superior performance=$10,000×0.10

Expected value for Superior performance=$1,000

Expected value for Good performance=$6,000×0.20

Expected value for Good performance=$1,200

Expected value for Fair performance=$3,000×0.50

Expected value for Fair performance=$1,500

Expected value for Poor performance=$0×`1,500

Expected value for Poor performance=$0

Now let determine the total  expected value of the annual bonus amount

Expected value of annual bonus amount=$1,000+$1,200+$1,500+$0

Expected value of annual bonus amount=$3,700

Inconclusion if he offers an annual bonus of $10,000 for superior performance, $6,000 for good performance, $3,000 for fair performance, and $0 for poor performance. Based on prior records, he expects an employee to perform at superior, good, fair, and poor performance levels with probabilities 0.10, 0.20, 0.50, and 0.20, respectively. The expected value of the annual bonus amount will be: $3,700

Each language possesses a structure which must at some level influence the way its users view the world.
attashe74 [19]
