Answer: The profit margin is 22.35 %
Explanation: The formula for profit margin is net profit/ income ÷ net sales.
As such, the profit margin is (131000 ÷ 586000) x 100 = 0.2235 * 100 = 22.35 %
Answer:
Entitlement and custom rather than on ethical behaviour.
Explanation:
Employers have a moral duty to look out for the well being of employees. It is not a question only of fair pay and suitable working conditions, there should be a real and long lasting concern for the welfare of employees.
The importance of connecting pay to performance is a suitable topic when discussing ethics. A lot of companies do not link pay to ethical behavior but pay is based on entitlement and custom.
There would a shift to the right of the supply curve. The equilibrium price would decrease and the equilibrium quantity would increase.
<h3>What is the impact of technological improvement?</h3>
Technological improvement in the production process means that there is an advancement or update in the technologies that are used in the production process. For example, progress from storing information in files to storing information in the cloud is an example of technological improvement.
A technological improvement in the production of a good would make it easier to produce a good. Thus, the supply curve would move forward.
Equilibrium quantity would increase. Due to the increase in quantity supplied, price has to decline in order to induce consumers to buy more of the product. Equilibrium price would decrease.

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.
1. How much interest would you pay on a loan of $1,230 for 15 months at 15 percent APR if the interest is 18.75 per $100?
The chart probably refers to interest per $100 of loan. So, the interest for a $1,230 loan would be (1230/100) * 18.75 = 230.625 ~ 230.63
So, the answer will be B $230.63.
2. Sherri borrowed $3,200 at 13 percent APR for 18 months. If she must pay 19.5 per $100, what is the total interest?
3,200 / 100 = 32 ... x 19.5 = 624
Principal x int rate x time = 3200 x .13 x 1.5 yr = 624 interest
So, the answer will be the A $624.
3. What is the total amount that Sherri (in question number 2) will repay?
The correct answer will be the $3,824.
