Answer:
structurally unemployed.
Explanation:
Unemployment rate refers to the percentage of the total labor force in an economy, who are unemployed but seeking to be gainfully employed. The unemployment rate is divided into various types, these include;
1. Cyclical unemployment rate (CU).
2. Frictional unemployment rate (FU).
3. Structural unemployment rate (SU).
Structural unemployment can be defined as an involuntary unemployment that arises as a result of the incompatibility between a worker's skills set and requisite skills an employer seeks from the workers or due to technological changes.
This ultimately implies that, it describes a situation where an individual isn't able to secure a job as a result of insufficient number of jobs matching their qualifications, thus limiting their opportunities.
In this scenario, Monica Smith was unemployed because the steel company, where she worked, closed and moved overseas to a foreign country. Other steel companies have also closed. Her skills are not transferable to another industry and she is unable to get a job.
Hence, she would be classified as structurally unemployed.

Mechem Corporation produces and sells a single product. In April, the company sold 1,900 units. Its total sales were $152,000, its total variable expenses were $79,800, and its total fixed expenses were $56,700.
Required:
a. Construct the company's contribution format income statement for April. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)
b. Redo the company's contribution format income statement assuming that the company sells 1,800 units.
Answer:
1. $15,500
2. $11,700
Explanation:
Given the following information,
the company sold 1,900 units
Total sales were $152,000
Total variable expenses were $79,800
Total fixed expenses were $56,700
The structure for Contribution income margin format is seen below;
Income statement:
Sales
- Total Variable cost
= Contribution margin
- Fixed costs
= Net Operating income
1. Income statement
Sales = $152,000
Less Total variable cost = ($79,800)
Contribution margin = $72,200
Less Total Fixed costs = ($56,700)
Net operating income = $15,500
2. Here, we need to calculate the unitary selling price and the unitary variable cost
Selling price = $152,000 ÷ 1,900 units = $80
Unitary Variable cost = $79,800 ÷ 1,900 units = $42
Therefore,
Sales = 1,800 units × $80
$144,000
Less total variable cost = 1,800 units × $42
$75,600
Contribution margin
$68,400
Less total fixed costs
$56,700
Net operating income
$11,700
The following table describes the production possibilities of two cities in the country of Baseballia:
Pairs of Red Socks per Worker per Hour Pairs of White Socks per Worker per Hour
Boston 3 6
Chicago 5 4
Without trade, the price of a pair of white socks (in terms of red socks) in Boston is_______ of red socks, and in Chicago it is ___________ of red socks. _________has an absolute advantage in the production of red socks, and _________ has an absolute advantage in the production of white socks. ___________has a comparative advantage in the production of red socks, and______ has a comparative advantage in the production of white socks.
If the cities trade with each other, Boston will export _________socks, and Chicago will export _________socks.
The price of white socks can be expressed in terms of red socks. The highest price at which white socks can be traded that would make both cities better off is _________of red socks per pair of white socks, and the lowest price that makes both cities better off is ________of red socks per pair of white socks.
Answer:
All the blanks are filled with explanation below.
Explanation:
Solution:
Let's extract the meaning of data from the data given.
Boston produces 3 red socks per worker per hour and 6 white socks per worker per hour
B = 1 worker = 1 hour = produces 3 pairs Red Socks
B = 1 worker = 1 hour = produces 6 pairs white socks
Boston = whites socks in terms of red socks
6 white socks = 3 red socks
white socks = 3/6 red socks
white socks = 0.5 pairs of red socks.
Chicago = white socks in terms of red socks
4 white socks = 5 red socks
white socks = 5/4 red socks
white socks = 1.25 red socks
C = 1 worker = 1 hour = produces 5 pairs Red socks
C = 1 worker = 1 hour = produces 4 pairs white socks
It means in Boston, we have advantage of producing white socks and in Chicago we have advantage of producing red socks.
Fill in the blanks: (Note: Bold words are blanks filled)
1. The price of pair of white socks (in terms of red socks) in Boston is 0.5 pairs of red socks of red socks, and in Chicago it is 1.25 red socks of red socks.
2.Chicago has an absolute advantage in the production of red socks, and Boston has an absolute advantage in the production of white socks.
3. Chicago has a comparative advantage in the production of red socks, and Boston has a comparative advantage in the production of white socks.
4. If the cities trade with each other, Boston will export white socks, and Chicago will export red socks.
5. The price of white socks can be expressed in terms of red socks. The highest price at which white socks can be traded that would make both cities better off is 1.25 of red socks per pair of white socks, and the lowest price that makes both cities better off is 0.5 of red socks per pair of white socks.

Berkshire Inc. uses a periodic inventory system. At the end of 2017, it missed counting some inventory items, resulting in an inventory understatement by $610,000. Assume that Berkshire has a 30% income tax rate and that this was the only error it made. If undetected, what is the effect of this error on Berkshire's December 31,2017 balance sheet
Answer:
Since the inventory was understated, that means that the cost of goods sold was overstated. Since the COGS was higher, gross profits and operating income were lower. This results in lower than income taxes, and lower net income.
Lower net income results in understated retained earnings (by $427,000), also taxes payable, a liability, will also be understated by $183,000. On the other side of the balance sheet, assets ill be understated by $610,000.
Explanation:

An animator needs a laptop for audio/video editing, and notices that he can pay $2600 for a Dell XPS laptop, or lease from the manufacturer for monthly payments of $75 each for four years. The designer can borrow at an interest rate of 14% APR compounded monthly. What is the cost of leasing the laptop over buying it outright
Answer:
C) Leasing costs $145 more than buying
Explanation:
Calculation for the cost of leasing the laptop over buying it outright
First step is to get find the Present value (PV) using financial calculator
Rate =1.17% ( ⁴ 14% ÷ 12 months)
NPER=48 months ( 4 years × 12 month)
PMT=$75
FV=$0.00
Hence,PV will be :.
PV=$2,744.59
Now let calculate the cost of leasing
Cost of leasing= $2,744.59 - $2,600
Cost of leasing= $144.59
Cost of leasing=$145 Approximately
Therefore the cost of leasing the laptop over buying it outright will be $145
Miller Corporation has a premium bond making semiannual payments. The bond has a coupon rate of 8 percent, a YTM of 6 percent, and 18 years to maturity. The Modigliani Company has a discount bond making semiannual payments. This bond has a coupon rate of 6 percent, a YTM of 8 percent, and also has 18 years to maturity. Both bonds have a par value of $1,000.
Required:
a. What is the price of each bond today?
b. If interest rates remain unchanged, what do you expect the price of these bonds to be 1 year from now? In 9 years? In 13 years? In 17 years? In 18 years?

Suppose you are deciding whether you should go to college. If you go to college, you will pay $10,000 total in tuition, textbooks, and room and board every year for 4 years, with the first payment being made immediately and then the next three payments 1 year apart. Upon graduating, you expect to get a job earning $50,000 per year for the next 40 years. Assume that your first paycheck arrives exactly 1 year after you start working and you continue getting paid annually thereafter. Also assume that there are no raises in that particular field. If you do not go to college, you can start working immediately. The pay, however, is lower. You would expect to work for 44 years and earn $34,000 per year, with your first paycheck arriving exactly 1 year from now, and you continue getting paid annually thereafter. For the questions below, round all numbers to two decimals.
Part 1 Assume the interest rate is 7%. If you were to attend college, the present value of your tuition payments would total _______ $
Part 2 Suppose you go to college and graduate after 4 years. Because you will work for 40 years after you graduate, and because 40 years is a long time, treating the stream of payments as a perpetuity will provide a reasonable approximation of the present value of the payment stream. The present value of your annual earnings of $50,000 as a college graduate is _______$
Part 3 The net present value of going to college is _____$
Part 4 If you do not go to college, you will be working even longer than before. Once again, you may treat the stream of income from your job as a consol or perpetuity. The present value of your annual earnings of $34,000 if you don't go to college is ________$
Answer:
Part 1. If you were to attend college, the present value of your tuition payments would total _______
$33,870.00
Part 2. The present value of your annual earnings of $50,000 as a college graduate is _______
$741,407.10
Part 3 The net present value of going to college is _____
$707,537.10
Part 4. The present value of your annual earnings of $34,000 if you don't go to college is ________
$719,270
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Annual Tuition, etc = $10,000
Number of college years = 4
Interest rate = 7%
Present Value Annuity Factor = 3.387
PV of $10,000 = $10,000 * 3.387 = $33,870
Annual salary after college in 4 years' time = $50,000
Number of years earning salary = 40 years
Present value annuity factor = 19.434 * 0.763 = 14.828142 (reduced to earnings after 4 years)
PV of $50,000 = $50,000 * 14.828142 = $741,407.10
NPV of going to college = $741,407.10 - $33,870 = $707,537.10
Annual salary without college = $34,000
Number of years earning salary without college = 44 years
Present value annuity factor = 21.155
PV of $34,000 in perpetuity = $34,000 * 21.155 = $719,270
