Explanation:
Let’s explore one by one as proposed:
An oil cartel raises oil prices: all prices in the oil-related products will increase making it more expensive for companies to be able to afford employees. As the US economy is heavily based on oil import and consumption, the unemployment rate (let´s call it UR from now on) would increase. Countries that export more than import could benefit from this scenario.
The U.S. dollar gains value against foreign currencies: It would be more expensive to produce goods in the US as its currency becomes stronger. Hence companies could choose to produce overseas, increasing the UR. One of the factors that attract investments is a cheap currency, meaning that a company could operate there at lower costs than anywhere else.
American consumers expect higher income in the future: As fights about average salary would arise between employees and companies, igniting even sindicalization, its proper to think that the same as above could occur; companies could choose to produce overseas in countries less demanding of labor rights and income, such as China provinces (I would recommend for you to watch American Factory, a awarded Netflix documentary about that subject).
Brazil experiences economic growth and increases its demand for U.S. exports: as I said in the first alternative, a country that has increased or more expensive exports could benefit from that creating more jobs, in this case decreasing the UR. If Brazil demands more US products, more has to be produced by the country, which would mean more people employed in this attractive sector.
U.S. real estate values rise: to be honest, it only affects indirectly. As housing becomes more expensive, people have to work more to be able to afford housing. That would mean they seeking better-paying jobs or in the absence of those being homeless of at least unable to buy a home. We could argue that the UR would decrease because it becomes more expensive to afford housing and hence people would migrate more but that’s a long shot rationale.
Answer: Gathering of the directors and stockholders (shareholders) of every incorporated firm, required by law to be held each calendar year. Generally, not more than 15 months are allowed to elapse between two AGMs, and a 21-day's written notice of its date is required to be given to the stockholders. The main purpose of an AGM is to comply with legal requirements, such as the presentation and approval of the audited accounts, election of directors, and appointment of auditors for the new accounting term. Other items that may also be discussed include compensation of officers, confirmation of proposed dividend, and issues raised by the stockholders.
Someone with the skills mentioned above would be great as (A) a credit analyst.
A credit analyst is <u>a person working in finances whose main job is to assess the creditworthiness of companies, individuals, and securities. </u>
Credit analysts are usually employed by public or private financial institutions (both banking or non-banking).
Answer:
a. Variable costing income from operations <u>is greater than </u>absorption costing income from operations.
b. $870,000
Explanation:
a. Under Variable costing, only the variable manufacturing costs are apportioned to the units produced.
Cost under Variable costing are;
= 114 * 14,500
= $1,653,000
Under Absorption Costing, both fixed and variable costs are apportioned to the units produced.
Cost therefore is;
= (114 + 60) * 14,500
= $2,523,000
Variable costing income from operations is greater than absorption costing income from operations because Absorption costs yields more cost.
b.= Absorption cost - Variable cost
= 2,523,000 - 1,653,000
= $870,000
<em>Variable costing income from operation will be $870,000 higher than Absorption costing income from operations.</em>
The Major problem facing transportation in Ghana and around the world is the human capital and infrastructural issues.
<h3>
Human Capital</h3>
The importance of Human capital cannot be overemphasized in curbing the problems of transportation in Ghana and the world at large. Human capital must interface with physical capital to bring about good transport systems because physical capital will always remain out of existence without the input of human capital.
<h3>Infrastructure</h3>
Transport infrastructure is generally lacking in Ghana and sub-Saharan Africa. There is absence of well developed and functional infrastructure to drive the transport system. Such infrastructure include fast trains, durable roads etc.
