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%

Contribution margin per unit -  $ 2.50

storchak [24]

Answer:

The cost of goods sold using the LIFO menthod is;

d. $3,580

Explanation:

Last in First Out (LIFO) method is an inventory method where the recently purchased good is sold first. This means that when accounting for the cost of goods sold, we use the unit cost of the goods that were purchased recently. In our case;

1 Beginning Inventory 150 units @ $10.00

5 Purchase 220 units @ $12.00

10 Sales 140 units @ $20.00

15 Purchase 100 units @ $13.00

24 Sales 150 units @ $21.00

<em>Step 1: Determine total number of units sold;</em>

Total number of units sold=number of sales on May 24+number of sales on May 10

where;

number of sales on May 24=150 units

number of sales on May 10=140 units

replacing;

Total number of units sold=(150+140)=290 units

Total number of units sold=290 units

<em>Step 2: Determine total cost of goods sold</em>

The first 100 units sold were each sold at $13

The remaining 190 units were each sold at $12

Total cost of goods sold=(100×13)+(190×12)=(1,300+2,280)

Total cost of goods sold=$3,580
