tigry1 [53]

Answer: 59.27% and 4.77%.

Explanation:

Given that,

In the year 2009:

Japanese adult non-institutionalized population = 110.272 million

Labor force = 65.362 million

Number of people employed = 62.242 million

Japanese labor-force participation rate = $\frac{Total\ labor\ force}{Total\ population}$

= $\frac{65.362}{110.272}$

= 0.5927 or 59.27%

Unemployment rate = $\frac{Total\ labor\ force - Number\ of\ people\ employed }{Total\ labor\ force}\times100$

= $\frac{65.362 - 62.242}{65.362}\times100$

Masterson Company's budgeted production calls for 56,000 units in April and 52,000 units in May of a key raw material that costs

Aleks [24]

Answer:

Total cost= $101,380

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production for April= 56,000

Production for May= 52,000

The raw material costs $1.85 per unit.

Each month's ending raw materials inventory should equal 30% of the following month's budgeted materials. The April 1 inventory for this material is 16,800 units.

We need to determine the budgeted material purchases for April:

Purchases= production for April + ending inventory - beginning inventory

purchases= 56,000 + (52,000*0.3) - 16,800= 54,800 units

Total cost= 54,800*1.85= $101,380
