Now,

The unemployment rate =( unemployment/labor force) * 100

Thus,

Unemployment =( unemployment/labor force) * 100

In May 2008, unemployment = (4 * 622,600 )/100 = 2,490,400/100

=24,904

In May 2009, unemployment = ( 7 * 602,000)/100 =4,214,00/100

=42,140

So,

Number of employed people = 2009 unemployment - 2008 unemployment = 42,140 - 24,904

Cortez Company sells chairs that are used at computer stations. Its beginning inventory of chairs was 100 units at $45 per unit.

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Its beginning inventory of chairs was 100 units at $45 per unit.

Purchases:

The first was a 174-unit purchase at $51 per unit

The second was a 212-unit purchase at $54 per unit.

During the period, it sold 294 chairs.

I will calculate the cost of goods sold and ending inventory under FIFO, LIFO, and weighted-average methods.

FIFO (first-in, first-out):

COGS= 100*45 + 174*51 + 20*54= $14,454

Ending inventory= 192*54= $10,368

LIFO (last-in, first-out):

COGS= 212*54 + 82*51= $15,630

Ending inventory= 92*51 + 100*45= $9,192

Weighted-average method:

Weighted-average cost= (45 + 51 + 54)/3= $50

COGS= 294*50= $14,700

Ending inventory= 192*50= $9,600
