If percentage of overall gross margin is 15 and final sales value of whole production is $20000, then gross margin (in dollars) will be

$30,000
$300,000
$40,000
$400,000
✅ The correct answer is B.
If percentage of overall gross margin is 15 and final sales value of whole production is $20000, then gross margin (in dollars) will be $300,000.

Calculate the labour turnover rate according to Separation method from the following: No of workers on the payroll: – At the beginning of the month: 500 – At the end of the month: 600 During the month, 5 workers left, 20 workers were discharged and 75 workers were recruited Of these, 10 workers were recruited in the vacancies of those leaving and while the rest were engaged for an expansion scheme

4.55%
1.82%
6%
3%
✅ The correct answer is A.
Separation method = No of worker separated during the period/Average no of workers at same period × 100

No of worker separated during the period = 25

Average no of workers = (500+600)/2= 550

∴25/ 550 × 100

=4.55%
