Answer: 83%

Explanation:

The Labour Force Participation Rate is a measure that checks the activeness of a nation's workforce.

It is calculated by dividing the segment of the population that are either working or ACTIVELY seeking employment by the total number of working age people in the economy that are not in prison.

It is assumed that unemployed people are Actively seeking employment.

In the above scenario therefore, the active population are,

= (320 million employed + 12 million unemployed )/400 million

The rest of the population are either unavailable for work or not actively seeking employment.

= 332/400

= 0.83

= 83%

The labor force participation rate in this economy is 83%

Answer:

$63,140

Explanation:

For computing the total amount of product cost first we have to find out the total product cost per unit which is shown below

Direct material cost per unit + Direct labor cost per unit + Variable manufacturing overhead per unit + Fixed manufacturing overhead per unit.

= $6.70 + $3.40 + $1.50 + $3.80

= $15.40

Now the

Product cost is

Gdp is $8 trillion. if consumption is $5 trillion, investment is $1 trillion, and government purchases are $2 trillion, then:___
Sedaia [141]

Exports are equal to imports when Gdp is $8 trillion. if consumption is $5 trillion, investment is $1 trillion, and government purchases are $2 trillion

Given -

Gross Domestic Product = $8 trillion

Consumption Spending = $5 trillion

Investment Spending = $1 trillion

Government Purchases = $2 trillion

The GDP is calculated as follows -

Gross Domestic Product = Consumption + Investment + Government Purchases + Net Exports

Since other components are given, net exports can be calculated.

Net Exports = Gross Domestic Product - Consumption - Investment - Government Purchases

Net Exports = 8 - 5 - 1 - 2

Net Exports = 0

Therefore, Exports are equal to Imports
