One of the operations in the United States Postal Service is a mechanical mail sorting operation. In this operation, letter mail

is sorted at a rate of one letter per second. The letter is mechanically sorted from a three-digit code input by an operator sitting at a keyboard. The manager of the mechanical sorting operation wishes to determine the number of temporary employees to hire for December. The manager estimates that there will be an additional 35,100,000 pieces of mail in December, due to the upcoming holiday season.
Assume that the sorting operators are temporary employees. The union contract requires that temporary employees be hired for one month at a time. Each temporary employee is hired to work 150 hours in the month.

a. How many temporary employees should the manager hire for December?

b. If each employee earns a standard $16 per hour, what would be the labor time variance if the actual number of letters sorted in December was 34,020,000? Use the minus sign to enter favorable variances as negative numbers.

maksim [4K]

Answer:

6.36 %

Explanation:

Unemployment means the state of being jobless but actively searching for work.  Unemployed people are part of the labor force.

In the case of Albireo, the work-eligible population is 180 million.

There are 110 million workers in the labor force, and employment level is 103 million. It means that those in the labor force and are not employed are 110 million - 103 million.

The number of unemployed people  = 7 million

The formula for calculating the rate of unemployment

= No. of unemployed people / No. in the labor force x 100

=7 million / 110 million x 100

=7/110 x 100

= 0.063 x 100

=6.36 %
