The unemployment rate is usually calculated as the number of unemployed individuals A)divided by the total number of people in a
society. B)multiplied by the total number of people in a society. C)divided by the total number of people in a labor force. D)multiplied by the total number of people in a labor force.
The formula for unemployment rate is: Unemployment Rate = Number of Unemployed Persons / Labor Force. The labor force is the sum of unemployed and employed persons. By dividing the number of individuals whom are unemployed by labor force, you'll find the labor force participation, or unemployment rate
The unemployment rate is usually calculated as the number of unemployed individuals divided by the total number of people in a labor force. This total represents a percentage of people who are looking for work but cannot find any.
B) induces buyers to consume less, and sellers to produce less.
Explanation:
Taxes are a necessary evil since they always increase the price of the goods and services that consumers buy and decrease the amount of money that producers receive from selling their goods and services. But taxes are necessary and unavoidable.
But once a market assumes all the effects of existing taxes it reaches an equilibrium price that both consumers and producers are satisfied with. If a new tax is levied than the deadweight losses are greater since consumer surplus and producer surplus are both reduced. This will lead to a reduction in the incentive that both consumers and producers have to engage in transactions. Many times consumers will substitute heavily taxed goods for other goods since they feel they are getting more from consuming those goods (consumer surplus). The same happens to producers, many producers will change their heavily taxed goods for other goods.
If the price elasticity of demand or supply of a certain good is large (elastic demand and supply), the deadweight loss will be greater.
Capital budgeting is an accounting method that corporations use to decide which planned acquisitions of fixed assets will be approved and which should be refused.
Some examples of Capital Expenditures include:
Construction of an additional building
Procurement of delivery vehicles
Procurement of new equipment
Rehabilitation of existing equipment
If one of the criteria for classification under Capital Expenditure is that it must be in the plan, then none of the above items mentioned in the question will fly.
Monies have already been expended on the options A, B, and C.
Option D is an offer to purchase an existing asset, not a planned investment. Therefore it also does not qualify.
The correct answers to fill the blank spaces are not be; small
Explanation:
If a currency's spot market is liquid, its exchange rate will not be highly sensitive to a single large purchase or sale of the currency. Therefore, the change in the equilibrium exchange rate will be relatively small.
