Answer:

6.36 %

Explanation:

Unemployment means the state of being jobless but actively searching for work.  Unemployed people are part of the labor force.

In the case of Albireo, the work-eligible population is 180 million.

There are 110 million workers in the labor force, and employment level is 103 million. It means that those in the labor force and are not employed are 110 million - 103 million.

The number of unemployed people  = 7 million

The formula for calculating the rate of unemployment

= No. of unemployed people / No. in the labor force x 100

=7 million / 110 million x 100

=7/110 x 100

= 0.063 x 100

=6.36 %

     trading securities - martin                 1,600 credit

cash                           66,300 debit

loss on investment     6,900 debit

   trading securities - gordon         73,200 credit

--to record sale of gordon securties --

trading securities earnhart corp 53,800 debit

                         cash                                53,800 credit

--to record purchase of earnhart--

unrelized loss(OCI)  7,100  debit

trading securities earnhart corp 3,700 credit

trading securities- wallace        3,400 credit

-- 2018 year-end adjustment--

Explanation:

gordon 77,600 - 73,200 =    (4,100)

wallace 172,900 - 167,700 = 5,200

martin 63,500 - 65,100 =   <u>  (1,600)  </u>

         Total adjustment           (500)

We will declare as other comprehensive incoem the unrealized loss of 500 dollar for the period

At sale date we compare the proceeds and the cost to check for the earning or losses:

1,500 shares x $45 each less 1,200 fees = 66,300

                        gordon shares book value <u>(73,200)</u>

                       loss on investment                 6,900

Earnhart corp:

700 shares x $75 each plus 1,300 fees: 53,800

year-end adjusting 2018

earnhart 50,100 - 53,800 = (3,700)

wallace 61,700 - 65,100 =    (3,400)

martin   167,700 - 167,700 = <u>         0</u>

unrealized loss                    (7,1 00)

notsponge [240]

Answer:

B) Hillward can sue Hobert since the logo has been used by Hillward and is associated with it.

Explanation:

Since Hillwards logo is an elaborate piece of creative art, then they can sue Hobert for using their logo since it was associated directly to them during the past decade. Common logos are not usually protected by copyright unless they show significant creative artwork done.

It is always better and easier to protect a logo when it is a registered trademark but even if you haven't registered it you can still sue and win for infringement. When a company uses a logo, especially for a long time, it is establishing common law trademark rights.

andriy [413]

=Dividend[\frac{1-\frac{1}{(1+r)^{n} } }{r}] + Par\ value[\frac{1}{(1+r)^{n} }]
