Both Carnegie and Rockefeller were the biggest businessmen and the riches in the 20th century. After all their great amount of profits garnered, both had individually decided to embark in a journey of charities. Carnegie had charity contributions that were made into school such as the Carnegie Institution, Tuskegee Instituion, and a lot more. He was dubbed as the patron saints of libraries and decided to set up more charitable foundations. Rockefeller on the other had a lot of charities and activities that gave away his excess money into charitable causes. He too had built schools by starting to build University of Chicago.

But with all their charitable and business contributions, I would say I like Carnegie more because it gave away of a lot of technologies we know of today and he is working on a principle he deeply believes in that after gaining your wealth you should contribute this wealth for the general welfare. However, Rockefeller too was great and focused his contributions on public service.

Brut [27]

Answer:

b. the supply of ivory has fallen, leading to an increase in price and reward for poaching.

Explanation:

In Economics, there are primarily two (2) factors which affect the availability and the price at which goods and services are sold or provided, these are demand and supply.

The law of demand states that, the higher the demand for goods and services, the higher the price it would be sold all things being equal. On the other hand, law of supply states that the higher the price of goods and services, the lower the supply.

Poaching can be defined as an illegal or illegitimate procurement (purchase) of protected wildlife living organisms such as elephants, fish, trees, gaming, etc.

In an attempt to reduce poaching of elephant tusks for ivory, officials in Kenya burned illegally gathered ivory. Economists tend to point out that the supply of ivory has fallen, leading to an increase in price and reward for poaching in accordance with the law of supply.

This ultimately implies that, an increase in the price level of a product usually results in a decrease in the quality of real output demanded along the aggregate demand curve.

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

1. I feel like Pat's new strategy isn't ethical. Pat doesn't pay for the suits; he just buys them and then returns them. Pat benefits, but the store he gets the suits from doesn't. In fact, they are harmed from this transaction because they are unable to have the suit for others to buy while Pat has it. There could be consequences with this strategy. For example, the suit might be damaged, and Pat won't be able to return it. Another problem is that others might find out about Pat's strategy, and they might view them as unprofessional. This is a problem for Pat since the reason Pat wore those suits was to look professional.

2. The stores are harmed from this transaction. They are unable to sell the suits to other buyers. The stores lose potential customers, so the stores lose potential money.

3. The companies should record that Pat had bought the suit only to return it the next day, so that they can act accordingly when Pat or someone else comes back to "buy" a suit.

A key characteristic of a successful entrepreneur is:
avanturin [10]

Answer:

C) Learning to fail intelligently

Explanation:

Economics recognizes four factors of production, the first three are land, labor and capital:

  1. land: includes any raw materials and natural resources used to produce other goods
  2. labor: human work involved in the production process.
  3. capital: physical tools and equipment involved in the production process

The fourth and probably most important factor is entrepreneurship. An entrepreneur is the person that combines all the other 3 factors of production into a business. Entrepreneurs take the risk of setting up their own business and many times are great innovators that are able to recognize opportunities and take them.

But doing business is not easy and being an entrepreneur is even harder. No matter how much positive energy and great ideas an entrepreneur has, there is chance that he will fail several times. Creative processes are not linear, they work on a trial and error basis and sometimes that also applies to running a new business. But as the great Micheal Jordan said," the important thing is not how many times you fall, but how many times you stand up."
