Answer: $4,000

Explanation:

The house is worth $200,000 in the present when you bought it.

When you sell it in a year, it would have appreciated by 2% over the capital that you invested as per the expected increase in Real Estate rates.

To calculate a year-to-year percentage change in any financial statement line item such as sales, you should take the current ye
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

the prior year's amount

Explanation:

In financial statements when measuring performance increase the percentage change in various financial statement lines are usually used.

Financial statement lines are individual items on financial statements. For example current assets, current liabilities, and sales.

The percentage change aims to compare increase in a financial statement line item against the previous year's amount.

This will give an idea of how much increase has occurred on previous performance.

So it is calculated by deducting previous year amount from current year amount, then divide by the previous year amount and multiply by 100

maksim [4K]

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 %
