1. Unions have been in decline since the 1960s because of
Answer: <u>A. foreign competition.</u>
Explanation: Unions were often conducted in the past in order to protect workers from<em> "arbitrary decisions" </em>of employers. Such decisions resulted to the<em> laying off of workers </em>and<em> cutting of wages</em>. On the contrary, business owners have a different goal. They wanted to make more profit by cutting the wages, so they didn't like the unions. However, unions have been in decline in the 1960s, mainly because of international/foreign competitions. This is because the "bargaining power of the unions as they represent the employees were reduced."

Answer:
The effective rate of protection for Canada’s steel industry is 21%
Explanation:
The computation of the effective rate is shown below:
Steel percentage = (Production worth of steel) ÷ (Taconite worth)
= ($1,000,000) ÷ ($100,000)
= 10%
And the tariff rate for steel is 20%
And the taconite percentage is 10%
So, the effective rate would be equal to
= Tariff rate for steel + taconite percentage × steel percentage
= 20% + 10% × 10%
= 20% + 1%
= 21%
Answer:
A. $57,000
B. Depreciation rate per mile is $0.19
C. Depreciation is $14,630
Explanation:
a. cost of the truck less the residual value.
Cost of the truck $69,000
Less: Residual value <u>$12,000</u>
$57,000
b. Depreciation rate per mile is computed by dividing cost of the truck less the residual value over the estimated useful life.
$57,000 / 300,000 miles = $0.19
c. Units-of-activity depreciation for the year is computed by multiplying miles driven for the year by depreciation rate per mile.
77,000 miles x $0.19 = $14,630
