Answer:
B)Since the development of human capital is an important determinant of economic growth, Brazil's literacy and reading rates suggests its potential economic growth rate is lower.
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed about Brazil having a population of about 210 million, with about 150 million over the age of 15. And Of these, an estimated 25 percent, or 37.5 million people, are functionally illiterate, and also compare how the typical literate individual reads only about two nonacademic books per year, which is less than half the number read by the typical literate U.S. or European resident.
From the view of New growth theory,the option that explains the implications of Brazil's literacy and reading rates for its growth prospects is that Since the development of human capital is an important determinant of economic growth, Brazil's literacy and reading rates suggests its potential economic growth rate is lower.
New growth theory, which was attributed to Paul Romer, explains about Economic growth in the long run in related to internal factors of with knowledge as well as human capital. In this scenario Brazil should arrive to make sure the literacy rate among people is increased as possible
University Printers has two service departments Maintenance and Personnel and two operating departments Printing and Developing. Management has decided to allocate maintenance costs on the basis of machine-hours in each department and personnel costs on the basis of labor-hours worked by the employees in each.
The following data appear in the company records for the current period:
Maintenance Personnel Printing Developing
Machine-hours ? 455 455 2,590
Labor-hours 315 ? 294 1,491
Department direct cost 11,000 $23,000 $25,000 $23,000
Required: Allocate the service department costs using the reciprocal method. Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations.
Answer:
Machine hour percentages -Allocation of Maintenance Costs
455 + 455 + 2,590 = 3,500 total machine hrs
Personnel = 455 / 3,500 = 13%
Printing = 455 / 3,500 = 13%
Developing = 2,590 / 3,500 = 74%
Labor hr. percentages--Allocation of Personnel costs
315 + 294 + 1,491 = 2,100 total labor hrs.
Maintenance = 315 / 2,100 = 15%
Printing = 294 / 2,100 = 14%

What are the five steps to understanding how foreign born labor impacts native born workers?
Answer:
HOW MUCH DO FOREIGN - BORN WORKERS EARN?
Foreign-born individuals typically earn less than native-born individuals — on average, 83 cents for every dollar earned by their native-born counterparts. That disparity generally holds true across age groups and education levels, with one significant exception. Foreign-born individuals with a bachelor’s degree or more had median weekly earnings of $1,362 per week in 2018, about $53 per week higher than the median for the native-born population with that level of education.

A company has the following aging schedule of its accounts receivable with the estimated percent uncollectible:______.
Age Group Amount Receivable Estimated Percent Uncollectible
Not yet due $ 175,000 4 %
0-60 days past due $ 40,000 10 %
61-120 days past due $ 10,000 30 %
More than 120 days past due $ 5,000 60 %
Assuming the balance of Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts is $3,000 (credit) before adjustment, which of the following would be recorded in the year-end adjusting entry?
Answer: $14,000
Explanation:
Estimated Uncollectibles = (4% * 175,000) + ( 10% * 40,000) + ( 30% * 10,000) + (60% * 5,000)
= 7,000 + 4,000 + 3,000 + 3,000
= $17,000
Balance before adjustment is a credit of $3,000 so the adjustment for the year is;
= 17,000 - 3,000
= $14,000

The company is considering hiring its own sales staff to replace the network of agents. It will pay its salespeople a commission of 8% and incur additional fixed costs of $7,500,000.
Under the current policy of using a network of sales agents, calculate the Bonita Beauty Corporation
Answer:
the question is incomplete, so I looked for the requirements of similar questions:
A. Calculate the company’s break-even point in sales dollars for the year 2014 if it hires its own sales force to replace the network of agents.
B. Calculate the degree of operating leverage at sales of $75,000,000 if (1) Bonita Beauty uses sales agents, and (2) Bonita Beauty employs its own sales staff.
a) total sales = $75,000,000
variable costs:
COGS $31,500,000
commissions $6,000,000
total variable costs = $37,500,000
contribution margin ratio = $37,500,000 / $75,000,000 = 0.5
total fixed costs = $8,610,000 + $10,260,000 + $7,500,000 = $26,370,000
break even point in $ = $26,370,000 / 0.5 = $52,740,000
b) one of the formulas that we can use to calculate the degree of operating leverage is:
operating leverage = fixed costs / total costs
1) total costs using sales agents = $63,870,000
total fixed costs = $8,610,000 + $10,260,000 = $18,870,000
degree of operating leverage = $18,870,000 / $63,870,000 = 29.54%
2) total costs employing its own sales staff = $6,000,000 + $31,500,000 + $26,370,000 = $63,870,000
total fixed costs = $26,370,000
degree of operating leverage = $26,370,000 / $63,870,000 = 41.29%

fixed income
Explanation:
During the expansion business cycle, economic activities are on the increase. Key economic indicators such as employment, incomes, business earnings, demand, and supply of goods and services show positive and progressive numbers.

The expansion phase brings along inflationary pressure. At the peak or near the end of the expansion cycle, the inflation rate is always above the optimal level and sometimes in double digits. A high rate of inflation weakens the purchases power of the local currency. Employees on a fixed income will be disadvantaged. Their income will afford them fewer goods and services compared to the period before expansion.

ogan Products computes its predetermined overhead rate annually on the basis of direct labor-hours. At the beginning of the year, it estimated that 40,000 direct labor-hours would be required for the period's estimated level of production. The company also estimated $466,000 of fixed manufacturing overhead expenses for the coming period and variable manufacturing overhead of $3.00 per direct labor-hour. Logan's actual manufacturing overhead for the year was $713,400 and its actual total direct labor was 41,000 hours.
Required:
Compute the company's pre-determined overhead rate for the year.
Answer:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $14.65 per direct labor hour
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Estimated direct labor hour= 40,000
Estimated fixed overhead= $466,000
Variable manufacturing overhead of $3.00 per direct labor-hour.
To calculate the predetermined manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (466,000/40,000) + 3
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $14.65 per direct labor hour

To protect consumers from unfair credit practices, credit laws were established
-true
-false
Answer:
true
Explanation:
"It started with the Consumer Credit Protection Act of 1968, when Congress moved to shield consumers and their financial records from abuse. In the years following, other laws refined consumer rights, spelling out how the government can access bank customers’ information, how banks treat borrowers and the way banks handle customer deposits.
It all came to a head after the Great Recession in 2008, and out of that, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau was formed, a new government agency dedicated to protecting consumers.
Today, there are countless laws, acts and regulations designed to protect consumers. The sheer number of laws can be overwhelming, but it is important that consumers understand their basic rights, so they can identify when those rights have been violated."
