alex41 [277]

The statement " Incorporators are required to sign the charter, deliver it to the proper state officials, and purchase a certain percentage of the initial stock offering " is FALSE.

Explanation:

Incorporation of a business means making a company officially known by the company's sole property or general partner. If a company forms, it becomes a legal structure separating the individuals who founded the company.

Even though a company does not have a office there, the company must always have a registered agent within the state of incorporation.

Incorporation provides shareholders with immunity from personal liability for the company's debts.

Suppose the civilian non-institutionalized working age population is 35.9 million in Laborland.
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer: a. 24.05 million

b. 66.99%

c. 4.62 million

d. 19.21%

Explanation:

a. Total Labor force is the sum total of people who are employed and those who are actively looking for work. The Bureau of Labor Statistics defines actively looking for work as looking for work int he past 4 weeks.

= Part-time workers + full time workers + those who looked for work in the past 2 weeks + those who looked for work in the past 2 - 4 weeks

= 4.9 million + 14.53 million + 2.90 million + 1.72 million

= 24.05 million

b. labor force participation rate is the percentage of a country's non-institutionalized working age population that are actively looking for work. Its formula = \frac{total labor force}{non-institutionalized working age population} X 100

Laborland's labor force participation rate (%) = \frac{24.05 million }{35.9 million }X 100

= 66.99%

c. Unemployed  People by the standards of the Bureau of Labor Statistics are the people who have looked for work in the past 4 weeks and are still employed. That is  those who looked for work in the past 2 weeks + those who looked for work in the past 2 - 4 weeks.

= 2.90 million + 1.72 million

= 4.62 million

d. Unemployment rate is the percentage of the labor force that are actively looking for work and are still out of work.

Unemployment rate = \frac{unemployed}{labor force} x 100

= \frac{4.62 million}{ 24.05 million} x 100

=19.21%

Vlad [161]

Answer:

Total $1,271.0564

Explanation:

We have bond of 10 years ago, so the bond is left with 5 years of life

<u>we need to calculate the present value ofthe cuopon payment:</u>

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C 50 (1,000 x 5%)

time 10 (5 years 2 payment a year)

rate 0.02 (4% annual divide by 2 to get semiannually)

50 \times \frac{1-(1+0.02)^{-10} }{0.02} = PV\\

PV $449.1293

<u>and the present value of the principal</u>

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV

Maturity 1000

time 5

rate 0.04

\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.04)^{5} } = PV

PV  $821.9271

<u>We add both to get the present value ofthe bond</u>

PV c $449.1293

PV m  $821.9271

Total $1,271.0564

Luden [163]

Answer:When you diversify your investments, you reduce the amount of risk you're exposed to in order to maximize your returns. Although there are certain risks you can't avoid, such as systemic risks, you can hedge against unsystematic risks like business or financial risks.
