2. A female worked for a city government as a "HR Analyst—classification and compensation." She earned a salary equivalent to $3

1.01 on an hourly basis. A male HR Analyst working for the same city at the same time earned a salary equivalent to $32.93 per hour. The job descriptions for their two positions were not identical, although the city’s HR Director said that she considered the jobs to be equal. The woman’s position required a bachelor’s degree and five years of experience. The male’s position required either a bachelor’s degree with two years of experience or an associate’s degree and five years of experience. The city offered several reasons for the differential in pay between the two employees. The male employee had worked at least fifteen more years for the city, although he had fewer years as an HR Analyst and a lengthy break-in-service had caused him to lose seniority credit for his earlier city work. The city also cited the male’s "citywide" experience as a basis for his higher pay, as he had moved between several different departments over the years. However, citywide experience was not listed on his job description or anywhere else as a requirement or preference. Lastly, the city attributed the male’s higher pay to his compensation history. His pay level during his previous stint with the city was taken into account in setting his pay when he was rehired. The female sued for pay discrimination under the Equal Pay Act.

According to the Equal Pay Act, the situation presented is an example of wage discrimination based on gender.

The Equal Pay Act is a United States labor law passed in 1963. This law was created to abolish the gender pay gap.

According to this law, employers (public and private) are prohibited from paying differentiated salaries based on sex in jobs that require equal skills, effort and responsibilities, and that are performed under similar working conditions.

Based on the Equal Pay law, the situation of two employees of different sex who perform a job as HR Analyst - classification and compensation and receive different salary if it is discriminatory due to:

  • Are employees of the same employer
  • They perform the same tasks with the same skill, effort, and responsibility requirements.
  • They are in similar or equal working conditions.

According to the foregoing, it can be inferred that it is a differential treatment based on discrimination based on sex.

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Interest= $26,131.91

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Annual deposit= $2,000

Number of periods= 20 years

Interest rate= 5%

<u>First, we need to calculate the future value using the following formula:</u>

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

FV= {2,000*[(1.05^20) - 1]} / 0.05

FV= $66,131.91

<u>Now, we can determine the interest earned:</u>

Interest= future value - total investment

Interest= 66,131.91 - 20*2,000

Interest= $26,131.91

kaheart [24]

Answer:

The appropriate answer is "capital intensive, land intensive".

Explanation:

  • Throughout Home than anything in Abroad, the whole no-trade income of farmers would be significantly greater, even though Home has fewer land assets than International. Throughout Home, then it does in International, the whole no-trade rate of electronics would be smaller, as Home does have more capital resources than International.
  • If the market is established, the comparative commodity price throughout the home will be decreased through trade as well as rise throughout foreign trade. If an exchange is expanded, the capital demand would rise at home as well as the rent overland throughout foreign countries will rise.

This will take effect even though the international availability of land will increase but instead international demand for resources will keep increasing.

Vlada [557]

Answer:

(a) $7; $205 million

(b) $9; $195 million

(c) $400 million

(d) $390 million

(e) Loss = $10 million

Explanation:

(a) Price paid by consumers when no tariff imposed:

= Marginal cost + Distribution cost

= $6 + $1

= $7

Quantity demanded:

Q = 240 - 5P

   = 240 - 5 × $7

   = 240 - $35

   = $205 million pounds

(b) At imposed tariff of $2 per pound, then the new price paid by consumers:

= Marginal cost + Distribution cost + Tariff

= $6 + $1 + $2

= $9

New quantity demanded:

Q = 240 - 5P

   = 240 - 5 × $9

   = 240 - $45

   = $195 million pounds

(c) Lost consumer surplus:

= ($9 - $7)($195) + (0.5)($9 - $7)($205 - $195)

= ($2 × $195) + (0.5 × $2 × $10)

= $390 + $10

= $400 million

(d) Tax revenue collected by government:

= Quantity demanded under tariff × tariff

= $195 × $2

= $390 million

(e) Tax revenue of $390 million received is less than the value of coffee sold under tariff $400 million.

Loss = $400 million - $390 million

        = $10 million
