The number of employed workers in this economy is A. 13.5 million

Explanation:

The number of unemployed people in the economy means the percentage of people who are actively seeking employment but cannot find a job for sustenance.

Thus, the ones who are seeking a job are the only ones that can be considered here.

So, the total population cannot be considered and the pool that justifies this demographic is the total labor force which is 180 million.

And the number of unemployed people would be calculated by multiplying the percentage of them with the total labor force which would be

7.5 * 180 = 13.5 million people.

Thus 13.5 people in the force are unemployed.

Draw the supply/demand curve. The line is above market equilibrium....the question literally states that the price rises, and since the supply curve has a positive slope (assuming unit elasticity), the supply will increase. Meanwhile, the demand curve has a negative slope (still assuming unit elasticity), so the demand for it will decrease. This will result in a surplus, aka, an excess supply.

merchandise is sold for cash. the selling price of the merchandise is $2,600, and the sale is subject to a 6% state sales tax. t
love history [14]

The journal entry for the sale would include a credit to sales tax payable for $156 if the selling price of the merchandise is $2600.

The government levies a consumption tax known as a sales tax on the purchase of goods and services. At the point of sale, a standard sales tax is imposed, collected by the retailer, and paid to the government. Companies must first apply for a sales tax permit from their state's department of taxation in order to be able to collect sales tax from customers. Every time a customer makes a purchase, businesses collect sales tax, which they subsequently monthly or quarterly send to the state.

As the selling price of the merchandise is $2,600 and the state sales tax is 6%, this means that 6% of $2,600 has to be paid to the state governing body.

Sales tax = 6% of 2600

Sales tax = 6/100 × 2600

Sales tax = 0.06 × 2600

Sales tax = $156

Therefore; the entry to journalize the sale would include a credit to sales tax payable for $156 if the selling price of the merchandise is $2600.
