Answer:
66%
Explanation:
- Students & retirees are not considered as part of Labor force
- people are under 16 age , are not part of working age population
- underemployed people are doing part time jobs, so counted as employed
Total employed = Employed full time + Underemployed
= 96 + 31
= 127 million
Unemployed workers = 8 million
Labor force size = employed + unemployed people
= 127 million + 8 million
= 135 million
Working age population:
= Total non-institutionalized population - People under age of 16
= 243 - 38
= 205 million
Therefore,
Labor force participation rate:
= (Labor force size ÷ Total non institutionalized population) × 100
= (135 ÷ 205) × 100
= 66%
Answer:
Hypertonic soil
Explanation:
In the case study, the young farmer added 60% more fertilizer believing that more fertilizer would simply cause the plants to grow faster. He thought that, since fertilizer helps plants grow, more fertilizer would simply accelerate the processes. He created, however, a hypertonic soil environment rich in potassium and phosphorous, causing the water to leave the corn cells to go to the soil (osmosis effect) leaving them to wither.
Answer:
depletion expense 103,560
Explanation:
The first step, is to calculate the rate per ton
coal mine 1,001,000
coal reserve 58,000
We divide the total coal reserve for the mine cost.
depletion rate 1.001.000/58.000 = 17,2586 = 17.26
Then we multiply bythe tons extracted for the period
depletion for the first year 6,000 tonds x 17.26 per ton = 103,560
This will be the depletion expense for the year.
