Answer:

O The size of the labor force is 40 million

Explanation:

Given:

Participation rate is 75%

Unemployment rate is 10%

Employment rate is 67.5%

The number of employed is 27 million.

As the employment rate is 67.5% of the size of the labor force which means that  27 million people are employed, we can say that number of people are employed equals to 67.5 percent of the total size of the labor force and we can write it numerically as:

27 = size of the labor force \times 67.5%

27 =  size of the labor force\times\frac{67.5}{100}

27 = size of the labor force \times0.675

Dividing both side by 0.675

Size of the labor force = 40 million

Therefore, (O The size of the labor force is 40 million) option is correct.

All of the following are assumptions of cost-volume-profit analysis except a.the sales mix is constant. b.costs can be divided i
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

d. within the relevant range of operating activity, the efficiency of operations can change.

Explanation:

Cost-volume-profit analysis is also known as the break even analysis, it is an important tool in predicting the volume of activity, the costs to be incurred, the sales to be made, and the profit to be earned is. It is used to determine how changes in differing levels of activities such as costs and volume affect a company's operating income and net income.

Generally, to use the cost-volume-profit analysis, financial experts usually make some assumptions and these are;

1. Sales price per unit product is kept constant.

2. Variable costs per unit product are kept constant and the total fixed costs of production are kept constant i.e costs can be divided into fixed and variable components.

3. All the units produced are sold i.e there is no change in inventory quantities during the period.

5. The costs accrued are as a result of change in business activities.

6. A company selling more than a product should simply sell in the same mix i.e the sales mix is constant.

<em>Hence, the aforementioned are assumptions of cost-volume-profit analysis except that, within the relevant range of operating activity, the efficiency of operations can change.</em>

Suppose that a firm produces 10 units of output. Its Average Variable Cost (AVC) = $25, Average Fixed Cost (AFC) = $5, and Margi
Andreyy89

Answer:

Total Cost  = $300

Average Total Cost = $30  

correct option is a.) Total cost is $300

Explanation:

given data

produces output = 10 units

Marginal Cost = $30

Average Variable Cost = $25

Average Fixed Cost = $5

solution

first we get here total cost that is

Total Cost = Total Variable Cost + Total Fixed Cost    .................................1

so here Total Variable Cost = Average Variable Cost × Output    

Total Variable Cost = $25 ×  10

Total Variable Cost =  $250

and total fix cost is = Average Fixed Cost × Output

total fix cost = $5 × 10 =

total fix cost = $50

so Total Cost is here

Total Cost  = $250 + $50

Total Cost  = $300

A) is correct

and

Average Total Cost will be

Average Total Cost = \frac{total\ cost}{out\ put}    ...................2

Average Total Cost = \frac{300}{10} = $30

Average Total Cost = $30

defon

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

If we look at the equation for money demand from Irving Fisher, which of the following statements is true?
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

The money equation given by Irving fisher is popularly known as fisher's equation.

The equation is given as MV=PT

Here, M represents money supply, V is the velocity of money, P is the price level and T refers to the volume of transactions or output level.

The supply of money refers to the quantity of money in existence while the velocity of transactions shows the number of times, money changes hands.  Together they show the volume of money in circulation.

P is the average price level and T represents the expenditures on all transactions or, in other words, output level.  

Here, V and T are assumed to be constant. This means that the money supply directly affects the price level.  

There is no explicit mention of the interest rate in this equation.  

So, option D is the correct answer.
