In your own words, interpret what 33% of all goods and property are owned by 1% of the

Business
1 answer:
Radda [10]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

It means that there must be a huge number of people that have little or nothing.

The most recent estimate of America's population is 331,000,000 roughly

1% of the population is 331,000,000 * 1/100 = 3,310,000

So that means that 3 million people own 33% of 14 trillion in property alone. These numbers are really hard to imagine.

1 trillion has 12 zeros behind it

so 14 trillion has 12 zeros behind it.

3 million people own 1,400.000,000 = 14 000 000 000 000 dollars worth of property.

That means that each person in that group of 3 million is 1 of 14 , 000, 000 in wealth just in property alone. The goods will dilute this somewhat, but I think you get the idea.

3 million people in the United States are multimillionaires, if they own 100% of the property. Of course that isn't true, but I think it's fair to say that they are not poor either.

product                units produced            setup hours          oven hours

Fudge                         8,000                         6,400                    1,600

Cookies                  445,000                         1,600                    8,000

1) Activity rate:

  • a) setup hours = total setup costs / total setup hours = $432,000 / 8,000 hours = $54 per setup hour
  • b) oven hours = total other overhead costs / total oven hours = $1,440,000 / 9,600 hours = $150 per oven hour

2) total overhead assigned to fudge = (6,400 setup hours x $54 per setup hour) + (1,600 oven hours x $150 per oven hour) = $345,600 + $240,000 = $585,600

List at least 6 things your credit card company must clearly disclose to consumers.
never [62]

It is important to review the credit card disclosure for information on APRs, Penalties, Grace periods, Minimum financing charges, Calculation methodologies, and Fees.

An explanation of all the fees, charges, interest rates, and conditions that a consumer can encounter when using the credit card is contained in a credit card disclosure. The legislation requires disclosure of this information by organizations that provide credit cards. The disclosures on credit cards offer clear information about costs and charges. They also encourage rivalry. To allow consumers to evaluate credit cards more effectively, it is legally necessary of all credit card companies to give the same price information. They can pick the one that better serves their tastes in terms of price.

The interest rate that a client will pay on outstanding balances is the most obvious example of a cost listed on a credit card disclosure. Basic elements like the monthly payment deadlines will also be covered in the disclosure.

At a price of $100, Beachside Canoe Rentals rented 11 canoes. When it increased its rental price to $125, 9 canoes were rented.
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

C) 0.9.

Explanation:

The calculation  of the price elasticity of demand is shown below:

Price elasticity of demand is

= (Change in quantity demanded ÷ average of quantity demanded) ÷ (Change in price ÷ average of price)

where,

q1 = 11

q2 = 9

p1 = $100

p2 = $125

So,

= {(9 - 11) ÷ (9 + 11) ÷ 2}  ÷  {($125 - $100) ÷ ($125 + $100) ÷ 2 }

= {-2 ÷ 10} ÷ {25 ÷ 112.5 }

= -0.9

= 0.9
