Answer:

Why is work important?

The status of work in contemporary societies is the result of a long historical process. It is not only an indispensable means of enhancing individual senses of usefulness and belonging, but also of providing financial means. Work is also central in several other dimensions, namely in its role as a socialising mechanism, as a source of social exchanges, and individual identities. Thus, work can be seen as the pillar of social organisation, but also, to a large extent, as an important pillar of the existential organisation of individuals. It is a fundamental feature in many dimensions of social integration, such as health, housing, and interpersonal networks. Hence, the relevance of Work Integration Programmes (WIP) aimed at improving the condition of vulnerable groups.

Let's summarise the importance of work both at the individual and the societal level:

For individuals, work is an important feature in structuring: personal and social identity; family and social bonds; ways of making money, and thereby accessing a number of essential and non-essential goods, services and activities; daily routines; level of activity; physical and mental well-being; self-confidence and self-esteem; a sense of self-worth provided by the feeling of contributing to society or the common good

For societies, work is an important feature in: promoting community cohesion and safety; increasing civic participation; reducing public spending in a range of welfare benefits (provided, of course, that work is performed in a decently paid job); promoting social and economic development; organising social life at a macro level

When success in these dimensions is challenged WIPs become more important. The relevance of WIPs is made even more acute when both macro and microstructural conditions create obstacles to the positive role of work. These must be carefully considered:

Macrostructural conditions: the current European crisis, reflected in the rise of unemployment and job precariousness; the transformation of work ethics that has been going on over the past few decades: as jobs become increasingly precarious, subject to sudden change or elimination, individuals have a decreased sense of security, commitment and loyalty towards their jobs and each other (see: Public Policy).

Microstructural conditions: work is not, by itself, synonym with integration. Indeed, precarious, unappealing, dangerous, low-paid and low-status jobs relegate individuals to the margins of society.

Yet, despite these current conditions, work is still a central piece in our societies, and a crucial factor in the social integration of vulnerable groups.

Find the APR, or stated rate, in each of the following cases (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer
Valentin [98]

Answer:

Stated Rate    No. of Times Compounded     Effective Rate (EAR) %            

   11.85%                    Semiannually                             12.2 %

   12.37%                    Monthly                                      13.1%

   110.27%                    Weekly                                       10.8%

   13.54%                    Infinite                                        14.5%

Explanation:

EAR = ( 1 + ( APR / m )^m)-1

Semiannually

m = 12 / 6 = 2

0.1220 = ( ( 1 + ( APR / 2 ) )^2) - 1

0.1220 + 1 = (1 + ( APR / 2 ) )^2

1.1220 = ( 1 + ( APR / 2 ) )^2

\sqrt{1.1220} = \sqrt{( 1 + ( APR / 2 ))^2}

1.059 = 1 + ( APR / 2 )

1.059 - 1 = APR / 2

0.059 x 2 = APR

APR = 0.1185 = 11.85%

Monthly

m = 12  / 1 = 12

0.1310 = ( ( 1 + ( APR / 12 ) )^12) - 1

0.1310 + 1 = (1 + ( APR / 12 ) )^12

1.1310 = ( 1 + ( APR / 12 ) )^12

APR = 12.37%

Weekly

m = 52

0.1080 = ( ( 1 + ( APR / 52 ) )^52) - 1

0.1080 + 1 = (1 + ( APR / 52 ) )^52

1.1080 = ( 1 + ( APR / 52 ) )^52

APR = 10.27%

Infinite

m = 20,000

0.1450 = ( ( 1 + ( APR / 12 ) )^12) - 1

0.1450 + 1 = (1 + ( APR / 12 ) )^12

1.1450 = ( 1 + ( APR / 20,000 ) )^20,000

APR = 13.54%

Andy just purchased a 2.5 acre vacant lot of land for $500,000. What was the price per square yard?
julsineya [31]

Andy just purchased a 2.5 acre vacant lot of land for $500,000. $41.32 per sq. yd price per square yard.

$500,000 ÷ 12,100 sq. yds. = $41.32 per sq. yd

What is square yard?

  • The length times the width, expressed in feet, must be multiplied by 9, and the result is the square yard (SQYDS). A square yard measures 9 square feet.
  • One billion is referred to as "yard" in finance. The word is derived from "milliard," which is comparable to the number one billion in American English and is used in various European languages.
  • Add the area to the conversion factor to convert a square yard measurement to a square foot measurement. The square yards multiplied by nine gives the area in square feet.
  • Add the length to the conversion factor to convert a yard measurement to a meter measurement. The yards times 0.9144 converts to the length in meters.
