Answer:
The temporary unemployment resulting from such sectoral shifts in the economy is best described as frictional unemployment.
This is because it is temporary and people in the affected sector could opt for jobs in other performing sectors of the economy.
Explanation:
Suppose the world price of cotton falls substantially, the following scenario will ensue.
The demand for labor among cotton-producing firms in Texas will reduce .
The demand for labor among textile-producing firms in South Carolina, for which cotton is an input, will also decline .
The temporary unemployment resulting from such sectoral shifts in the economy is best described as frictional unemployment.
Frictional unemployment is seasonal employment that could occur when there is no demand or work period is completed unlike structural unemployment that can last for long.
It is a temporary unemployment situation because workers in the cotton industry could opt for jobs in other performing sectors of the economy.
Answer: $412,292
Explanation:
First compute Overhead Absorption Rate = Budgeted Overhead divided by Budgeted Activity Level
In this question the activity level is Direct Labour Hours (DLH) which is the basis for allocating overhead.
budgeted factory overhead for the year at $453,120, and budgeted direct labor hours for the year are 384,000.
$453,120 divided by 384,000 DLH =$1.18
Overheard to be allocated for May is OAR * Actual Activity level
$1.18*349400= $412,292
This is the amount to be allocated to may
5,200 + 21,000 + 1,300 + 1,200 = 10,400 ÷ 10 totally investment 1,040 %
The answer is D. All would be included as human resources
Answer:
4.5%
Explanation:
Stock R (Beta) = 1.5
Stock S (Beta) = 0.75
Expected rate of return on an average stock (Rm)= 10%
Risk free rate (Rf) = 4%
Required Return (Re) = Rf +(Rm-Rf) B
Required Return = 0.04 + (0.10-0.04) B
Required Return = 0.04 + 0.06B
Stock R = 0.04 + (0.06 * 1.50)
Stock R = 0.04 + 0.09
Stock R = 0.13
Stock R = 13%
Stock S = 0.04 + (0.06 * 0.75)
Stock S = 0.04 + 0.045
Stock S = 0.085
Stock S = 8.5%
Here, the more risky stock is R and less risky stock is S. Since, R has more beta than the Stock S.
= 13% - 8.5%
= 4.5%
