Explanation:
Let’s explore one by one as proposed:
An oil cartel raises oil prices: all prices in the oil-related products will increase making it more expensive for companies to be able to afford employees. As the US economy is heavily based on oil import and consumption, the unemployment rate (let´s call it UR from now on) would increase. Countries that export more than import could benefit from this scenario.
The U.S. dollar gains value against foreign currencies: It would be more expensive to produce goods in the US as its currency becomes stronger. Hence companies could choose to produce overseas, increasing the UR. One of the factors that attract investments is a cheap currency, meaning that a company could operate there at lower costs than anywhere else.
American consumers expect higher income in the future: As fights about average salary would arise between employees and companies, igniting even sindicalization, its proper to think that the same as above could occur; companies could choose to produce overseas in countries less demanding of labor rights and income, such as China provinces (I would recommend for you to watch American Factory, a awarded Netflix documentary about that subject).
Brazil experiences economic growth and increases its demand for U.S. exports: as I said in the first alternative, a country that has increased or more expensive exports could benefit from that creating more jobs, in this case decreasing the UR. If Brazil demands more US products, more has to be produced by the country, which would mean more people employed in this attractive sector.
U.S. real estate values rise: to be honest, it only affects indirectly. As housing becomes more expensive, people have to work more to be able to afford housing. That would mean they seeking better-paying jobs or in the absence of those being homeless of at least unable to buy a home. We could argue that the UR would decrease because it becomes more expensive to afford housing and hence people would migrate more but that’s a long shot rationale.
Answer:
1.4
Explanation:
Given that
Q1 = 200
P1 = $200
Q2 = 300
P2 = $ 150
Recall that
Midpoint formula = Q2 - Q1/(Q2 + Q1)/2 ÷ P2 - P1/(P2 + P1)/2
= 300 - 200/(300 + 200)/2 ÷ 150 - 200/(150 + 200)/2
= 100/250 ÷ -50/175
= 0.4 ÷ 0.285
= 1.4
Answer:
Queries can perform many different functions in a database. Their most common function is to retrieve specific data from the tables. The data you want to see is usually spread across several tables, and queries allow you to view it in a single data sheet.
Answer:
The formula for each month is described below:
January +(B2*31*C2)+(B2*$A$12)
February +(B2*29*C2)+(B2*$A$12)
March +(B2*31*C2)+(B2*$A$12)
April +(B4*30*C4)+(B4*$A$12)
May +(B3*31*C3)+(B3*$A$12)
Explanation:
The formula matches the requirements for each individual month as number of days change accordingly and $A$12 determines the fixed transport cost the other variables are the number of boxes and the cost per box.
A direct investment, also known as a foreign direct investment occurs when a retail firm invest in and owns a retail operation in a foreign country.
There are many benefits to a foreign direct investment and that's why a lot of retail firms go this route. A few advantages are: larger growth opportunities, goods sold and serviced around the world, benefits the global economy and the investors.
