Answer: True

Explanation:

Productivity is the process of measuring an organization's ability to produce a good or service. While organizations that produce goods can point to the total finished number of products as evidence. It is difficult to improve the service sector's productivity, because of the following;

1. Service industries are labor-intensive

2. Measuring and monitoring service quality are difficult

3. Most service establishments are of small size

4. Using machine technology and labor-saving devices is difficult

You want to buy your dream car which will cost you $5900. If you could invest your entire savings of $3500 at an annual interest
Liula [17]

Answer:

t = 4.607742347 years rounded off to 4.61 years

Explanation:

To calculate the number of years it will take an investment of $3500 to grow to $5900 at an annual interest rate of 12%, we will use the formula for the future value of cash flows. The formula can be written as follows,

Future value = Present value * (1+i)^t

Where,

  • i is the interest rate
  • t is the time in years

Plugging in the values for future value, present value and i, we can calculate the t to be,

5900 = 3500 * (1+0.12)^t

5900 / 3500 = (1.12)^t

1.685714286 = 1.12^t

Taking log on both sides.

Ln(1.685714286)  /  Ln(1.12)  =  t

t = 4.607742347 years rounded off to 4.61 years

The following income statement was produced when volume of sales was at 400 units. Sales Revenue $ 1,600 Variable Cost 700 Contr
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

If volume reaches 500 units, net income will be: $715

Explanation:

When  volume of sales was at 400 units:

Selling price per unit = Sales Revenue/400 = $1,600/400 = $4

Variable Cost per unit = Variable Cost/400 = $700/400 = $1.75

If volume reaches 500 units:

Total Sales Revenue = $4 x 500 = $2,000

Variable Cost = $1.75 x 500 = $875

Fixed Cost will not change = $410

Net income = Total Sales Revenue - Variable Cost - Fixed Cost = $2,000 - $875 - $410 = $715

During the course of a year, the labor force consists of the same 6,000 people. Employers have chosen not to hire 420 of these p
dybincka [34]

Answer:

5%

12%

Explanation:

Unemployment rate is the fraction of the labour force that are unemployed but are actively looking for work

Types of unemployment include:

Frictional unemployment : it is the period of time a person is unemployed from the period he leaves his current job and the time he gets another job. The 300 unemployed people are frictionally unemployed

structural unemployment : it occurs as a result of changes in the economy. These changes can be as a result of changes in technology, polices or competition . Structural unemployment tends to be permanent. The 420 unemployed people are structurally unemployed

Voluntary unemployment : e.g. worker at a fast-food restaurant who quits work and attends college.

Cyclical unemployment : occurs as a result of fluctuations in the economy

Frictional unemployment = (total frictional unemployed people / total labour force ) x 100

(300 / 6000) x 100 = 5%

Total unemployment rate = (total frictional unemployed people + total structural unemployed individuals / total labour force ) x 100

[(300 + 420) / 6000] x 100 = 12%
