Answer:

a. 28.7 millions

b. 20.4 millions

c. 0.9231, or 92.31%

Explanation:

a. How much of the population is older than 16? million  

Number of population older than 16 = Total population - Children under the age of 16 = 35.4 – 6.7 = 28.7 millions

b. What is the size of the labor force? million

Labour force = Employed + Unemployed = 18.5 + 1.9 = 20.4 millions

c. What is the labor force participation rate?

Working age population = Total population – Children under the age of 16 – Retirees = 35.4 – 6.7 – 6.6 = 22.1 millions

Labor force participation rate = Labor force ÷ Working age population = 20.4 ÷ 22.1 = 0.9231, or 92.31%

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

a. $90,875

Explanation:

Provided information we have,

Individually allocated cost

S1  = $62,000    S2 = $102,000     P1 = $162,000         P2 = $142,000

Firstly under step method cost allocation will be from S1 to S2, P1, P2

Ratio = 0.7 : 0.1: 0.2

Thus allocated to S2 = $62,000 \times 0.7 = $43,400

P1 = $62,000 \times 0.1 = $6,200

P2 = $62,000 \times 0.2 = $12,400

Total cost of S2 = $102,000 + $43,400 = $145,400

Ratio between S1: P1: P2 = 0.2:0.3:0.5

Amount allocated to P1 =  $145,400 \times \frac{0.3}{0.8}

= $54,525

Amount allocated to P2 =  $145,400 \times \frac{0.5}{0.8}

= $90,875

Therefore, correct option is

a. $90,875

Verdich [7]

Answer:

0.8314

Explanation:

First, we are given the following

Unemployment during on Average = U= 12.7 weeks

Standard deviation= SD = 0.3 Weeks

Therefore, P (12  Greater than x  Greater than 13)

= P (12-12.7 /0.3 Greater than X -U/SD Greter than 13-12.7/0.3)

= P (-0.7/0.3 Greater than Z Greater than 0.3/0.3)

= P (-2.33 Greater than  Z  Greater than   1)

= P (Z Greater than 1)  - P (Z Greaer than -2.33)

At this Point we make use of he Z table to find out the figure

= 0.8413 - 0.0099

= 0.8314
