Answer:

The answer is: The unemployment rate will increase

Explanation:

To calculate unemployment rate we use the following formula:

Unemployment Rate = Number of Unemployed People / Labor Force (unemployed + employed people)

To be considered unemployed, a person must be without a job, but actively looking for one.

The unemployment rate (UR) for Xenia would be:

UR = unemployed / (unemployed + part time workers + full time workers)

UR = 500 / 7,000 = 7.14%

Currently there are 2,000 people that are not considered unemployed since they are not working but they aren't looking for a job either. For example, if 500 of those would start looking for job and became unemployed, the new unemployment rate (UR) would be: 1000 / 7,500 = 13.33%.

So if more people start looking for a job, the unemployment rate will increase.

The growth rate of Nominal  GDP from 2007 to 2008 is 100%.

Nominal GDP is the gross domestic product of a country that is calculated using current year prices. It included real GDP and inflation.

Growth rate in GDP = (nominal GDP in 2008 / nominal GDP in 2007) - 1

Nominal GDP in 2007 = (60 x 100) + (15 x 20)

= $6000 + $300

= $6,300

Nominal GDP in 2008 = (60 x 200) + (12 x 50)

$12,000 + 600

= $12,600

Growth rate = ($12,600 / 6,300) - 1 = 100%

If Clancy's boss is interested in a graphical representation of the relationship between the price and quantity of televisions d
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

A demand schedule

Explanation:

A demand schedule is a table that shows how the quantity demanded varies with changes in prices. It is a table that explains the relationship between the price of a product or service and its demand. A demand schedule provides the same information as the demand curve. The only difference is that the demand curve uses graphical representation, while the demand schedule uses the table format.

Clancy should, therefore, prepare the demand schedule for her boss. It will give the same information regarding the relationship between price of televisions and the quantity demanded.
