The correct option is (b) negligent hiring.

State courts have ruled that companies can be held liable for negligent hiring if they fail to do adequate background checks.

<h3>What is negligent hiring doctrine?</h3>

According to the doctrine of negligent hiring, a company is responsible for any injury its workers do to third parties if they knew or should have known that the employee posed a danger of doing so, or if a reasonable investigation would have revealed the risk.

The causes of negligence hiring are-

  • Whether the employee's unfitness was the cause of the injuries that resulted
  • Whether the employer knew or should have known (had the employer used ordinary care) of the employee's unfitness at the time of employment. Each state has a different liability standard.

An employer be concerned about negligent hiring and retention because-

  • An employer may be liable for real injuries, pain and suffering, and even punitive damages if they fail to discipline an employee who poses a danger of injury to coworkers, clients, and others.
  • The company may be held liable if these employees go on to commit careless or reckless conduct that could endanger others.

The elements of a negligent retention claim include all of the following:

  • An affiliation with a company.
  • The employee's lack of expertise.
  • The employer may have had actual or constructive awareness of the ineptitude.
  • An employee's action or inaction that resulted in the plaintiff's injuries.

aksik [14]

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

The lender lawfully denied the application because the applicant was under 18 and therefore was too young to legally sign a contract.

A 16 year old is not up to the age to sign a contract and even at that Every lender has their own requirements for approving a loan. And for a person who is just 16 getting a loan approval is going to be near impossible except it is done with the cosignature of a parent. This is because several checks are usually done before a loan is approved and a 16 year old may not pass all of them.

AlekseyPX

Answer:

B. 904,000

Explanation:

Ash Company should report as supplemental information the amount of cash paid to suppliers = cost of goods sold + increase in inventory + decrease in accounts payable

cash paid to suppliers = $875,000 + ($83,000 - $69,000) + ($107,000 - $92,000) = $875,000 + $14,000 + $15,000 = $904,000

Apparently Ash Company buys and then resells goods, which means that one of its largest cash outflows should be suppliers. That is why it should provide supplemental information about cash paid to them.
