There is an old American adage (saying): If you owe the bank a small amount of money, the bank controls you. If you owe the bank

a large amount of money, you control the bank. In the case of U.S. government debt owned by China, who is the bank?

Answer:

See explanation below for answer.

Explanation:

In the case of the United States debt to China, the bank in this case is China because, following the analogy in the question, the person entity that lends money to another is the "bank".

As of December 2019, the United States debt to China stood at $1.07 trillion.

This therefore goes to further buttress the point of China being the bank in the case of them lending money to the United States of America.

Unions contribute to
Len [333]

Answer:

The correct answer is D: neither frictional nor structural unemployment

Explanation:

Structural unemployment is a form of unemployment where, at a given wage, the quantity of labor supplied exceeds the quantity of labor demanded because there is a fundamental mismatch between the number of people who want to work and the number of available jobs. It is generally considered to be one of the “permanent” types of unemployment, where improvement if possible, will only occur in the long run.

Structural unemployment is a longer-lasting form of unemployment <u>caused </u>by fundamental shifts in an economy and exacerbated by extraneous factors such as technology, competition, and government policy. The unemployed workers may lack the skills needed for the jobs, or they may not live in the part of the country or world where the jobs are available. Structural unemployment can last for decades and may need radical change to redress the situation.

<u>There is not a direct link between unions and structural unemployment. The main causes are economy shifts, lack of preparation, competiton (for example, factories moving overseas), government policy,  technology shifts, etc.</u>

Frictional unemployment is the time period between jobs when a worker is searching for or transitioning from one job to another. It can be voluntary based on the circumstances of the unemployed individual. Frictional unemployment exists because both jobs and workers are heterogeneous, and a mismatch can result between the characteristics of supply and demand. Such a <u>mismatch can be related to skills, payment, work-time, location, seasonal industries, attitude, taste, and a multitude of other factors.</u>

There is always at least some frictional unemployment in an economy. Economists accept that some frictional unemployment is okay because both potential workers and employers take some time to find the best employee-position match.

<u>There is no direct contribution that unios made to generate or increase frictional unemployment. It causes are found in the description above.</u>

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

The amount of expense for compensated absence to report in income statement for 2020 is $2,000,000.

Explanation:

This can be calculated using the following formula:

Amount to report in income statement for 2020 = Number of employees * Hourly wages in 2020 * Number of hours worked daily * Vacation Days Earned by Each Employee .......................... (1)

Where;

Number of employees = 500

Hourly wages in 2020 = $25

Number of hours worked daily = 8

Vacation Days Earned by Each Employee = 20

Substituting the values into equation (1) we have:

Amount to report in income statement for 2020 = 500 * $25 * 8 * 20

Amount to report in income statement for 2020 = $2,000,000

Therefore, the amount of expense for compensated absence to report in income statement for 2020 is $2,000,000.

Outsourcing is becoming more and more common, but it is a controversial idea in the United States. Why do you think this is such
drek231 [11]
I believe outsourcing is a highly contested idea because people would rather have the products they use produced in their country. I think outsourcing is a good idea because production of a product might be cheaper in another country but sometimes that means a less of quality product.
