To find the gross profit margin found by:
(revenue - cost of goods sold)/revenue

Revenue = $62,275
Cost of goods sold (purchase price) = $26,500

= (62,275 - 26,500)/62,275
= 35,775/62,275
= 0.57 x 100
Percentage of gross profit = 57%

Answer:

The percentage of gross profit is 57%.

Explanation:

This problem requires us to calculate the percentage of gross profit. Cost of item sold and its sale price is given in the question. Detail calculation is given below.

First calculating Gross profit

Gross profit = 62,275 - 26,500 = $ 35,775

Gross profit percentage = Gross profit/Sales * 100

                                          = 35,775/62,275 * 100 = 57%

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

A good has negative externality if the costs to third parties not involved in production is greater than the benefits. an example of an activity that generates negative externality is pollution. Pollution can be generated at little or no cost, so they are usually overproduced. Government can discourage the production of activities that generate negative externality by taxation. Taxation increases the cost of production and therefore discourages overproduction. Tax levied on externality is known as Pigouvian tax.

Government can regulate the amount of externality produced by placing an upper limit on the amount of negative externality permissible

A good has positive externality if the benefits to third parties not involved in production is greater than the cost. an example of an activity that generates positive externality is research and development. Due to the high cost of R & D, they are usually under-produced. Government can encourage the production of activities that generate positive externality by granting subsidies.

A public good is a good that is non excludable and non rivalrous. An example of a public good is a statue in a public park Everyone has assess to the statue and because one person is enjoying the view of the statue does not means another person cannot enjoy the view of the statue

Daniel [21]
<h3>In the given scenario unemployment rate is 10% </h3>

Explanation:

In the given problem,

Number of People who are working is 90,000

Number of People who are not working but looking and available is 10,000

Unemployment rate = Percentage of the total labor force that is unemployed but actively looking for employment and ready to  work.  

Unemployment rate = ((Unemployed people * 100) / (Total people in an economy (Working + Available for work)))

Unemployment rate = ((10000 * 100) / (90000+10000))

Unemployment rate = (1000000 / 100000)

Hence, Unemployment rate = 10%
