<span>The most recent study was done on June 1, 2017, and all information is from that date. There are 673 US District court judgeships and four territorial ones. At the time of this study, there were 160 active circuit court judges and 19 vacant positions, while there were 570 district court judges and a whopping 103 vacant positions.
There are 59 female circuit court judges, 37%. Men, therefore, are in 63% of positions. Intesretingly, this number has actually improved, with only one woman serving in 1977.
Disregarding race, 75% of circuit court judges are white, 13% African American, 9% Hispanic, and only 3% Asian American. 12 courts have African American judges, nine have Hispanic, and five have Asian American. Overall, all three percentages have risen since 1977 (with some variability), but interestingly, Asian Americans have only recently begun to rise in presence., starting in about 2010.
Combining gender and race, white men make up 45.6% of all circuit court judges, while Asian American women only make up 0.6%. In all races, men overpower women in numbers by a large amount.
Looking at age, the average is 64.7 years old, with over 50% over 65 and only 2% under 45. The vast majority were appointed between 45 and 54, though many came slightly before or after.
It is worth noting that the first openly gay circuit court judge was Todd M. Hughes, appointed by Obama in 2013.
If we are considering race, Asian Americans are the lowest represented. If we are considering gender, women are less represented. Overall in race and gender, Asian American women are least represented. Looking at age, people under 40 are underrepresented. Overall, though, the least common demographic would be open members of the LGBT+ community.
As you can see, this is not a straightforward question! It is a hugely interesting topic and one I plan to explore further.</span>
Answer:
B. 9.84%
Explanation:
Given that
D1 = 1.25
P0 = 27.50
g = 5%
F = 6%
Recall that
Cost of equity raised = (D1/P0 - [F × P0]) + g
Thus,
= 1.25/27.50 - [0.06 × 27.50] + 0.05
= 1.25/ 25.85 + 0.05
= 0.04835 + 0.05
= 0.09835
= 0.0984
=9.84%
Answer:
Fifo Ending Inventory = $ 690
Explanation:
The first in first out method implies that only the units at the end are left out in the ending inventory.
Fifo Ending Inventory = $ 690
10 units from third purchase at $ 35= $ 350
10 units from second purchase at $ 34= $ 340
Total 20 units FIFo method = $ 690
Working
Total Cost
Beginning inventory 10 units at $30 $ 300
First purchase 25 units at $32 $ 800
Second purchase 30 units at $34 $ 1020
Third purchase 10 units at $35 $ 350

<h3>What is inflation?</h3>
Inflation is the general increase in prices of goods and services in an economy which reduces the purchasing power of the consumers.
Based on the given information, the yearly increase in the inflation rate can be computed using the present value formula from an online finance calculator as below.
<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>
N (# of periods) = 8 years
I/Y (Interest per year) = 5.1%
PMT (Periodic Payment) = $0
FV (Future Value) = $12,500
<u>Results:</u>
PV = 8,396.31 or $8,400
Total Interest $4,477.49
Thus, the yearly rate of inflation in car prices over the 8 years that Dave bought his new car for $8,400 is <u>5.1%</u>.
