In 2000 Amelia was being paid $7,200 per week. The CPI was 0.418 in 2000. In 2020 Amelia found a job paying $35,000 per week. Th

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Real wage is defined as the nominal wage divided by the general price level, CPI. It is also the purchasing power of nominal wage.

Nominal wages are the wages received by a worker in the form of money.

Given:

In 2000:

Amelia nominal salary = $7,200 per week. CPI = 0.418

In 2020:

Amelia nominal salary = $35,000 per week

CPI = 2.40

Where CPI is an inflation measure.

Real salary = salary /(1 + inflation rate)

Inflation rate = (CPI2 - CPI1)/CPI1 × 100

Real salary I = salary/CPI

Real salary in 2000 = 7200/0.418

= $17224.88 per week

Real salary in 2020 = 35000/4.74

= $7384 per week

Nominal salary in 2000 compared to that in 2020,

Finding the difference = $7200 - $35000

= -$27800 per week

Real salary in 2000 compared to that in 2020,

Finding the difference = $17224.9 - $7384

= $9840.9 per week

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

None

Explanation:

Before a bank decides on which interest rate placed on loans given to customers, it will have to be a general agreement between the board of directors in an Annual General Meeting (A.G.M). Or else stated otherwise which is quite rare, interest rates on loans and mortgages are based on a simultaneous agreement. When an interest rate is to be decided for a certain customer, his or her credit scores are evaluated to ascertain the loanee's ability to pay back the loan. When a loanee's credit scores are low, he or she tends to receive a high interest rate on loans and mortgages while when a loanee's credit scores are high, he or she tends to receive a low interest rate on loans and mortgages.

On the case of the client who works in a bank granting the registered representative a mortgage with lower interest rates, this cannot be possible because: first, the client's position in the bank was not clarified and secondly, the registered representative's credit scores will be the evaluation report used by the bank to grant that.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

She expects that a typical shawl should take 4 hours to produce, and the standard wage rate is $ 10.00 per hour. An average shawl uses 12 skeins of wool. Marina shops around for good deals, and expects to pay $ 3.30 per skein.

For April, Mauriona's workers produced 200 shawls using 784 hours and 3,360 skeins of wool. Mauriona bought wool for $ 10,420 (and used the entire quantity), and incurred labor costs of $ 8,100.

1)

Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

Actual price= 3.10

Direct material price variance= (3.3 - 3.10)*3,360= $672 favorable

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

Direct material quantity variance= [(12*200) - 3,360]*3.3= $3,168 unfavorable

Direct labor efficiency variance= (SQ - AQ)*standard rate

Direct labor efficiency variance= [(4*200) - 784]*10= $160 favorable

Direct labor price variance= (SR - AR)*AQ

Direct labor price variance= (10 - 10.33)*784= 258.72 unfavorable

2)

Work in process 7,924

Direct material quantity variance 3,168

Direct material price variance 672

Material inventory 10,420

Work in process 8,000

Direct labor price variance 260

Direct labor efficiency variance 160
