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

Answer:

Cash Dividends - Year 2 =  $84400

Explanation:

The net income of the business is usually appropriated or used for two purposes at the end of the year. It is either used to pay dividends or is retained in the business and is added to the retained earnings or both.

Thus, to calculate the dividends paid by the business in a particular year, we can calculate the change in retained earnings and deduct it from the net income.

Change in retained earnings = Ending balance of retained earnings - Beginning balance of retained earnings

Change in retained earnings = 694000 - 587400

Change in retained earnings = $106600

Thus, out of the net income of $191000, $106600 were transferred to retained earnings. So, the amount of dividends paid for the year is,

Cash Dividends - Year 2 = 191000 - 106600  = $84400
