C. 14.

Explanation:

The Real GDP's increase or decrease and how much it will take for it to double will not be influenced strictly by the economic factors but also by the demographic ones. If the population is increasing, then the percentage of increase of the population should be taken out of the increase of the Real GDP so that we have the right numbers about it. If the population is decreasing, then the number of decrease is added on the rise of the Real GDP so that we have an accurate number.

In this case we have a population rise of 2.3% and a Real GDP rise of 7.3%. If we take out the number of increase of the population from the Real GDP increase we will get 5%, which is actually representing the real increase in the GDP. In order to calculate how much time will be needed for the Real GDP to double we will use the 5% as increase base.

First we take a number by choice that will represent the current Real GDP. Than we calculate how much are 5% of that number and added to it, representing the Real GDP for the next year, and we will continue to do so until we reach double the figure from the starting one or very close to it.

(10,000 / 100) x 5 = 10,500

(10,500 / 100) x 5 = 11,025

(11.025 / 100) x 5 = 11.576.25

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

The actual labor rate per hour is $12

Explanation:

First and foremost, we need to understand that a direct labor spending variance of $990(unfavorable) means that the firm spent an additional $990 compared to what was expected.

Also, the spending variance is computed as the actual labor rate minus the standard labor rate multiplied by the actual labor hours worked

spending variance=(actual labor rate-standard labor rate)*actual labor hours

spending variance=$990

actual labor rate=unknown=(assume it is X)

standard labor rate=$11

actual labor hours worked=990

$990=(X-$11)*990

$990/990=X-$11

$1=X-$11

X=$1+$11

X=actual labor rate=$12
