Alja [10]3 years ago
4 0

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the official unemployment rate is shown below:

Official unemployment rate is

= Unemployed workers ÷ (Unemployed + employed) × 100

= 13,863,000 ÷ (13,863,000 + 139,323,000) × 100

= 9.05%

Now for the U-4 is

= (Unemployed workers + discouraged workers) ÷ (Unemployed + employed + discouraged workers) × 100

= (13,863,000 + $993,000) ÷ (13,863,000 + 139,323,000 + $993,000) × 100

= 9.64%

Therefore for exclduing the discouraged workers it may cause the offical rate to understate the underemployment true extent

dimaraw [331]

Answer: 1.67

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that the currency drain ratio is 0.5 of deposits and the​ banks' reserve ratio is 0.4.

The money​ multiplier is calculated as:

(1 + the currency drain ratio)/( the reserve ratio + the currency drain ratio)

= (1 + 0.5)/(0.5 + 0.4)

= 1.5/0.9

= 1.67

Therefore, the money multiplier will be 1.67.

lord [1]

Using the diagram of the market for corn. If the price in this market is $2 per bushel, then there will be option A: a shortage of 8 thousand bushels.

<h3>What is the issue of the quantity demanded about?</h3>

Based on the image attached,  12 thousand bushels are being wanted at this price of  $2 per bushel, while 4 thousand bushels are being delivered.

These figures are also shown in the image above. Now when you contrast the quantity given and sought at this pricing. The quantity supplied (12) lower than the quantity demanded (4). Or, to put it another way, the quantity that producers want to sell is lower than the quantity that customers want to purchase.

Therefore, Since Qd > Qs, we refer to this as an excess demand scenario or shortage.

Hence, 12 - 4 = 8

So there is a a shortage of 8 thousand bushels in quantity supplied.
