I would say it depends on your intended audience.
In general, a well-organized arrangement of shoes is necessary to demonstrate the store's strengths. There should be some sort of theme--a color, a season, or a style--that appeals to the buyer. Any discounts should be conveyed through a large sign in the background ("15% off all Nike") to further give the buyer a reason to walk in. The display should not be so "busy" as to confuse the buyer, but should not be too "desolate" as to fail to catch the buyer's eye. Also, the stores name and logo should be clearly visible--people like to know who they are buying from.
Now, to the part that depends on your audience.
If you are trying to sell shoes to 7 year old girls, colors and sparkles are helpful.
If you are trying to sell shoes to middle aged businessmen, the display should have a clean-cut, black-and-white aesthetic.
If you are trying to sell shoes to rich, young women, the display should have a sophisticated vibe.
And that is my opinion of the perfect shoe store front! Now I sorta want to open a shoe store...
Hope this helped!
Answer:
The unemployment rate is 9%
Explanation:
First it is important to know that the total labor force consists of individuals who are employed and unemployed.
The type of persons that are not included in the labor force are the Students, homemakers, retirees and discouraged workers.
The ones that are included are the employed full time, part time workes, the persons out of work and the ones actively looking for work
The Total labor force then is = employed full time + employed part time + out of work and actively looking for work
Total labor force = 122 million + 30 million + 15 million
Total labor force = 167 million
To calculate then the unemployment rate you have to use the following equation:
unemployment rate= <u>unemployed</u>
total labor force
unemployment rate= <u>15 million</u>
167 million
unemployment rate= 9%
