4 0

Calculate for the total earnings gained from working by multiplying the number of hours worked and the hourly wage.

E = (27.25 hours)($5.15 /hour) = $140.3375

The total taxes and items that need to be paid is,

T = $6.19 + $10.74 + $6.37 = $23.3

Subtracting from the total earnings the latter,

NP = $140.3375 - $23.3 = $117.04

Answer is the third choice, $117.04.

g The Nelson Company has $1,312,500 in current assets and $525,000 in current liabilities. Its initial inventory level is $385,0

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

$262,500

Explanation:

Current ratio = Current asset/Current liabilities

In line with the current ratio formula, to calculate the amount of short term debt increase, with the amount of current assets and current liabilities, we must add an amount such that the result 2.0

(1,312,500 + x) / (525,000 + x) = 2.0

Cross multiply

(1,312,500 + x) = 2.0 × (525,000 + x)

Open the brackets

1,312,500 + x = 1,050,000 + 2x

Collect like terms

1,312,500 - 1,050,000 = 2x - x

262,500 = x

It therefore means that the maximum that should be borrowed to buy inventory is $262,500

Andrej [43]

Answer:

D. All of the above.

Explanation:

Full employment describes an economic situation where every able and willing worker is employed. It represents a situation where the highest possibles numbers of unskilled and skilled people are in employment. In practice, full employment is when the economy attains the optimal levels of unemployment.

At full employment, the unemployment rate will be above zero percent. The reason is that the economy will always have as frictional unemployment. Frictional unemployment is the time it takes for an individual to find their ideal job. Structural and frictional unemployment contribute about 2 to 3 percent of unemployment in the economy. Economists thus consider a 3 percent unemployment as full employment.
