Answer:

The unemployment rate is 42.85.

Explanation:

The formula to calculate the unemployment rate is:

Unemployment Rate = (Unemployed People / Total Labor) x 100 -- (1)

where total labor is the sum of the unemployed people and employed people.

Unemployed People = 10 Retired persons + 5 stay-at home parents + 10 persons with no job + 5 persons who wanted job

Unemployed People = 30

Labor Force = Employed people + Unemployed people

Labor Force = 40 + 30

Labor Force = 70

Putting the values in equation 1,

Unemployment Rate = ( 30/ 70) x 100

Unemployment Rate = 42.85

musickatia [10]
<span>In order to cut costs, most of the pay TV providers have incorporated large call centers where they hire poorly trained and low paid employees to answer customer calls. These employees lack incentive and generally don't care much about customers. One exception to the rule is DirecTV. They are known for the best customer service record in the industry. It uses outsourcing, but they have motivation, something lacking from other providers. Their reps get free satellite TV in their homes once they have been on the job for three months and are invited to special DirecTV events where they have chances to meet and greet celebrities and NFL stars. They are also given the ability to handle complaints themselves rather than just listening, noting and transferring calls.</span>

An agent sells his client 10 U.S. government bonds due to mature in 30 years. According to NASAA's Statement of Policy on Unethi
Artemon [7]

Answer:

The bonds are guaranteed as to principal and interest payments by the US government.

Explanation:

According to NASAA's Statement of Policy on Unethical or Dishonest Business Practices of Broker-Dealers and Agents, a broker can say US government bonds are guaranteed on principal and interest payments.

However if inflation sets in and interest rates rises there is no guarantee from the government that interest paid on the bonds will match the higher interest rate.

So legally this statement is correct, even though the investor can lose money as a result of higher interest rate in the future.

Two firms examined the same capital budgeting project which had an IRR of 16%. One firm accepted the project but the other rejec
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

the statement is not valid. A company can reject the 16% IRR project if it is less than its discount rate. the discount rate is the minimum acceptable rate at which a project can be accepted. so, if 16% is less than than the discount rate, the project would be rejected.

on the other hand, if the discount rate is less than 16%, the project should be accepted because the return of the project would be greater than the discount rate.

Explanation:

Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested.
