Answer:

The answer is 60%

Explanation:

Labor force is the total number of people that have job(employed) and the number of people who are willing, able and actively searching for job(unemployed) in a population.

Labor force participation rate is calculated by dividing the labor force by the noninstitutionalized population.

Labor force = employed + underemployed + unemployed

= 96 + 31 + 8

=135 million

So we have:

(135 ÷ 243) x 100 percent.

60% (the nearest whole percentage)

Why have the fortunes of the English gentry degenerated?
kotykmax [81]
The fortunes of the English gentry degenerated primary due to the reformation of the voting law. Initially, only land-owning gentry has the right to vote and they used their right to control the laws governing land ownership. When the voting law was reformed, the power of the gentry diminished, enabling non-gentry individuals to own land and create factories.

Since, the English gentry get their fortunes from leases on their lands used for farming, they were very affected when the people working on their lands opted to go to the city and become factory workers. Thereby decreasing their rental income.

Land taxes also increased and because some portion of the English gentry's land became idle and unproductive, they were not able to pay the increasing land taxes; forcing them to sell and dispose of their land to meet their tax obligations.

Barnes Company reports the following operating results for the month of August: sales $305,000 (units 5,000); variable costs $21
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

1. $30,500;

2. $30,000;

3. $22,000;

=> Option 1 produce the highest net income.

Explanation:

We have sell price per unit = 305K /5K = $61

1.  Increase selling price by 10% with no change in total variable costs or sales volume:

Sell price = 61 x 1.1 = $67.1

Sales revenue = 67.1 x 5,000 = $335,500

Increase in sales revenue = 335.5K - 305K = $30,500

As costs remains the same, Net income will increase as much as the increase as sales revenue which is $30,500.

2.  Reduce variable costs to 60% of sales:

New variable cost = $305,000 x 60% = $183,000

Saving in variable cost = 213K - 183K = $30,000

As fixed cost and sales revenue remain the same, net income will increase as much as the saving in variable cost which is $30,000

3. Reduce fixed costs by $22,000:

As variable cost and sales revenue remain the same, net income will increase as much as the saving in fixed cost which is $22,000
