Answer:

27%

Explanation:

Number of Persons in the Household = 90

<u>Neither Employed Nor Unemployed</u>

  • Children Under 16 =10
  • Disabled = 5
  • Retired =10
  • Stay at Home Parents = 5
  • Full Time Students over the age of 16= 5

Total =35

<u>Unemployed</u>

  • 10 people had no job but were looking for jobs
  • 5 people who wanted a job but were not looking for a job.
  • Total =15

<u>Employed</u>

  • 35 people had full-time jobs
  • 5 had part-time jobs

Total =35+5=40

Total Labour Force = Unemployed +Employed = 40+15 =55

Unemployment Rate = (Unemployed People / Total Labor) x 100

=15/55 X 100

=27%

According to the information in the survey, the unemployment rate is: 27%

Tara wants to put a small portion of every paycheck into a low-risk investment. which would be her best option?
nydimaria [60]

Tara's best option to put a small portion of every paycheck into a low-risk investment is investing in an S&P 500 index fund.

<h3>What is a paycheck?</h3>

A paycheck can be defined as a financial document that is issued by an employer to an employee as payment for the work done over a period of time.

<h3>What is risk tolerance?</h3>

In Insurance, risk tolerance can be defined as the willingness of an individual or organization to take a risk in business transactions and investments, in order to get a potentially positive reward.

Generally, the high risk that is associated with investments such as stocks, high-yield bonds, etc., is often perceived by investors to be worth the higher reward these investment brings.

In this scenario, we can reasonably infer that Tara's best option to put a small portion of every paycheck into a low-risk investment is investing in an S&P 500 index fund.

LeCompte Corp. has $312,900 of assets, and it uses only common equity capital (zero debt). Its sales for the last year were $620
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

LeCompte Corp.

The profit margin that LeCompte Corp. would need in order to achieve the 15% ROE, holding everything else constant is:

A) 7.57%.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Assets = $312,900

Common Equity = Assets = $312,900

Sales for the last year = $620,000

Net income after taxes = $24,655

Expected return on equity (ROE) = 15%

ROE (in amount) =  $312,900 * 15% = $46,935

Profit margin = Returns on Equity/ Sales * 100

= $46,935/$620,000 * 100

= 7.57%

b) The expected returns on equity in dollars is equal to the net income.  Therefore, we can use the ROE to calculate the profit margin.  The profit margin expresses the relationship between sales and profit.  It shows the profit made from each dollar sales.

deff fn [24]

Answer: Demand Curve shifts left

Explanation:

Money is now less attractive to hold so people will demand less of it. This will cause the demand curve in the monetary market therefore to shift to the left.

After visiting several automobile dealerships, Richard selects the car he wants. He likes its $11,500 price, but financing throu
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The answers are:

A) total interest = p x r x t

where:

  • p = $9,200
  • r = 10%
  • t = 2 years

total interest = $9,200 x 10% x 2 = $1,840

B) the total cost of the car = down payment + principal + total interest

total cost = $2,300 + $9,200 + $1,840 = $13,340

C) monthly payment = (principal + total interest) / total number of payments

monthly payment = ($9,200 + $1,840) / (12 x 2) = $11,040 / 24 = $460

D) APR = (total payments x total interest) / [principal x (total payments +1)]

APR = (24 x $1,840) / ($9,200 x 25) = 0.192 or 19.2%
