Fixed expenses  (22000)

Net income (loss) (15000)

Luda [366]

Answer:

Change in Assets is $127,500

Explanation:

The accounting equation for a corporation is:

Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders' Equity

⇒ Liabilities = Assets - Stockholders' Equity

= $285,000 - $130,500

= $154,500

At the end of years,

  • Liabilities amount = Liabilities in the beginning + Change in liabilities = $154,500+ $90,000 = $244,500
  • Stockholder's equity amount = Stockholder's equity + Change in stockholder's equity = $130,500 + $37,500 = $168,000

The assets at the end of year = $168,000 + $244,500 = $412,500

Change in Assets = $412,500 - $285,000 = $127,500

Shorter answer:

Change in Assets = Change in Liabilities + Change in Stockholders' Equity

= $90,000 + $37,500 = $127,500

Cerrena [4.2K]

The answer is option B) Frictional unemployment is inevitable because the economy needs to be lubricated.

It also happens due to the natural career progression for an employed staff seeking to transition to a new job, industry, or role.

Frictional unemployment is like a lubricant in the economy because an increase in frictional unemployment means more workers are moving toward better positions.

The real wages of workers will tend to be high when
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

When labor productivity is high.

Explanation:

According to neoclassical economic theory, real wages are equal to the marginal product of labor (MLP). The marginal product of labor is the extra output produced by one extra unit of labor (one extra worker).

If the MPL is high, this means that workers are very productive, and therefore, are paid a high real wage accordingly.

This is why countries with high labor productivity like the U.S. or Switzerland also have very high real wages.
