Explanation:

Here is the complete question:

friend and fellow student shares her employment experience over the last 12-week summer break. It took her one full week to find a job. She started on the first day of week two and was able to keep her job for the remaining eleven weeks. Use this information to answer the following three questions, assuming the unemployment rate is not changing:

1. Calculate the rate of job finding (f) for the summer, using an average rate per week. Enter this value in the box below. Note that if f is the rate of job finding, then the average spell of unemployment is (1/f).

The value of f is:

2. Calculate the rate of job separation (s), using an average rate per week. Enter this value into the box below. Note that if s is the rate of job separation, then the average length of employment is (1/s).

The value of s is:

3. Calculate the natural rate of unemployment (U) using the above results and enter this value in the box below.

The natural rate of unemployment (in percent) is

1. From the question, we can see that it was said that took her one full week to get a job over the last 12 week summer break. The unemployment rate will be 12.

The value of f is: 12

2. From the question, the average length of the employment is 11/12 weeks. The rate of job separation will be: s = 12weeks ÷ 11 weeks

s = 1.090

The value of s is: 1.090

3. The natural rate of unemployment will be:

U = s/(s+f)

= 1.090/(1.090 + 12)

= 1.090/13.090

= 0.08327

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Prime cost = $94,000

<em>Conversion cost</em> =  $135,400.

Explanation:

<em>Prime cost is the addition of direct material cost , direct labor cost and direct expenses.</em>

<em>Conversion cost is the cost of converting raw materials into finished product. It s the sum of direct labour cost and production overheads.</em>

For Bento Engineering,

<em>Prime cost = direct labour cost  (since no figure is given for direct material and direct expenses.)</em>

Prime cost = $94,000

Conversion cost = Direct labour cost + overheads

<em>Conversion cost</em> = $94,000 + 126,000

                          =  $135,400.

Prime cost = $94,000

<em>Conversion cost</em> =  $135,400.
