The economic system that is used in the United States of America in which most of the businesses are owned by the people instead of the government is a mixed economy.
The keyword in this statement is "most" because not all businesses in the United States are owned by the people, some are government owned; the mixture of this ownership in an economy is what defines that economy as a "mixed economy."
<span> <span>Solution:
A = P(1+r)^n
where,
A = amount
P = principal
r = rate of interest
n = number of years
Putting values in the formula,
8850 = 2750(1+0.08)^n
8850/2750 = (1+0.08)^n
log will be used to solve "n" as it is in the exponent form, which gives,
log(8850/2750) = n log(1+0.08)
By solving, we get n = log(8850/2750) / log(1+0.08)
Using financial calculator, value comes as 15.187 rounded to 15.19.
So, he will have to wait for 15.19 years to take holidays as it will take 15.19 years to make $8850 from $2750 @ 8% annual compounding.</span> </span>
Answer:
The answer is 51,500 units
Explanation:
Break-even sales is a point in which a business or a firm neither make profit nor loss. Total Revenue equals total cost. Break-even sales help to know the point at which business starts to make profit.
Break-even sales is:
Fixed cost/contribution margin.
Where contribution margin is sales price per unit minus variable cost per unit.
In the question, variable cost are decreased by $3.
So the new variable cost is $21 - $3
=$18.
Contribution margin is $24 -$18
$6
Therefore, The break-even sales (units) if the variable costs are decreased by $3 is:
$309,000/$6
=51,500 units
Answer:
Suppose a senator considers introducing a bill to legislate a minimum hourly wage of $12.50.
Wage Labor Demanded Labor Supplied
$12.50 375,000 625,000
This will result in a surplus of labor (625,000 higher than 375,000)
Which of the following statements are true?
- Binding minimum wages cause structural unemployment. As with all price floors, a deadweight loss results, because the quantity supplied is much greater than the quantity demanded. In this case, the price of labor is the wage, and the deadweight loss = structural unemployment
-
In the absence of price controls, a surplus puts downward pressure on wages until they fall to the equilibrium.
Since a labor surplus exists, the price of labor should start to decrease in order to match the equilibrium price.
-
If the minimum wage is set at $12.50, the market will not reach equilibrium. The quantity supplied of labor is much greater than the quantity demanded for labor resulting in a surplus.
