This is because the unemployment rate give only takes into account people that are unemployed and are looking for work. It does not account for those that are unemployed and have given up.
ex) A woman who looses her job because of technological advances is looking for work and is considered unemployed (taken into account), however a man who has tried looking for work after he was laid off has given up (not counted)
ex) A woman lost her job during the depression and cant seem to get a job with her limited skills. She has given up and is not counted in the unemployment rate
Answer: $96,500
Explanation:
Manufacturing cost includes all the costs that went into production in a period including direct costs and manufacturing overhead:
= Direct materials + Direct labor + Manufacturing Overhead
Manufacturing overhead = Beginning work in process + Factory overhead - Ending work in process
= 11,200 + 52,600 - 11,800
= $52,000
Manufacturing cost = 19,500 + 25,000 + 52,000
= $96,500
Answer: $1,852,320
Explanation:
First find out the proportion owned by Matsui.
= 74,800 shares / 220,000
= 34%
The investment at the end of the year is:
= Cost of investment + Shares of net income - Share of dividend
Share of income:
= Percentage ownership * Net income
= 34% * 240,000
= $81,600
Share of dividend:
= 34% * 72,000
= $24,480
Investment at end of year:
= 1,795,200 + 81,600 - 24,480
= $1,852,320
Answer:
$480
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Machine Hours Repair Costs
2,400 $6,385
1,200 $3,480
2,000 $5,285
3,400 $8,980
Now,
Machine Hours Repair Costs
Highest 3,400 $8,980
Lowest 1,200 $3,480
Difference 2,200 $5,500
Unit variable cost = $5,500 ÷ 2,200
= $2.5
Total cost at high level = $8,980
Machine hours highest level = 3,400
Also,
Total cost at high level = Fixed cost + Variable cost at highest level
or
$8,980 = Fixed cost + [ $2.5 × 3,400 ]
or
Fixed cost = $8,980 - [ $2.5 × 3,400 ]
= $8,980 - $8,500
= $480
