d. If the two friends do not go ahead with the business because of the economic loss they suffer in the first year of operation, then they cannot be regarded as entrepreneurs. They are merely laborers who cannot assume any risk for greater rewards tomorrow.

Answer: 258 million
Explanation:
The labor force refers to the number of people who are employed and the unemployed who are also looking for work.
Let the labor force be represented by x. Based on the question given, we can form an equation which will be:
5.8% of x = 15 million
0.058x = 15 million
x = 15million / 0.058
x = 258 million
Therefore, the labor force is approximately 258 million.

Balance sheet extract:
Intangible assets:
Copyright 1 $0
Copyright 2 $48,000
Explanation:
The points to note in the question are enumerated as follows:
An internally generated intangible asset cannot be capitalized.By capitalization ,I mean its costs is treated as intangible asset to be amortized over its useful life.As a result,the $16,000 incurred on the internally generated intangible asset,specifically,the first copyright should be treated as expense when incurred.
However,the second copyright that was bought from University Press can be treated as asset but cannot be amortized since it has indefinite life,but would be tested for impairment on a yearly basis,with impairment losses charged to profit or loss account.

People,especially teens, deal with this problem all the time. They may be poor and have to deal with clothing or even cleanliness issues. Who can afford 80 dollar designer jeans? Not everyone. Who can pay attention to makeup when you've had 3 meals in 3 days? That has to affect the way you look at the world. Even if money is not an issue, class is. There are always kids who pick on others because they can't fit in. If a person is lucky, their response is sports or something else that they excel at.

Everyone experiences stress. Money, exams, dates for important events, clothes, acceptance, parents (if you're a teen), teens (if you are a parent), using the family car responsibly can all contribute to stress. People under severe stress respond differently. Some become short tempered. Some become lethargic. Some turn to drugs which have their own set of symptoms, depending on the drug. One thing is for sure: people on drugs change dramatically. It's unmistakable.

Well this is pretty personal, especially if you've written on it before. A great coping mechanism is prayer for some people. It really doesn't matter who hears you, or what you say or how you say it. It only matters that you stay still and do it. The main thing is to try and shut yourself down while the stress is at it's highest point. Many older people are really stressed out by health. That especially requires quite times. Stop worrying is another way of coping. Most of the time worry does no good at all. Things causing stress will go away or they won't. Worry isn't going to bring things about any quicker or better.
