Answer:
D) The husband could not make any type of contribution, whereas the wife could make a tax deductible contribution.
Explanation:
The husband is already participating in his employer's pension plan, so he cannot make tax deductible contributions to an IRA account.

However, they will have to pay company income tax and other taxes in the US.
Also, if they import raw materials into the US from their home country or any other country, they would still be subject to import duties except the US government has a favorable tariff policy that exempts the payment of import duties on certain imported products.
Asides from import duties, there are many other factors to be considered before deciding to set up a company in the international economy. Sometimes, paying the import duties may be cost effective and more efficient for the company than setting up a subsidiary in the US.
Answer:
legal system
Explanation:
There are five basic legal systems used in different countries around the world: civil law, common law, customary law, religious law, and mixed legal systems.
Generally business operations are included under common law (US and UK + former colonies) or civil law (based on Roman law used in most of Europe and Latin America), at least in western countries. This includes both North and South America, western European countries, and Australia + NZ.
Personally I don't know about the rest of the non western countries.
Answer:
Comedy as a Profession is a great example.
Explanation:
The science of it is related to the psychology of what makes people laugh.
If studied, one would realize that there are certain things that are bound to make people laugh (all things being equal). An example is when a person makes fun of themself to an audience.
To explain this, scientists have stated that it is inherent in humans to laugh at the misfortune of others. However, this is just a theory and does not explain why we laugh at other kinds of comedy.
A plausible explanation (which is more recent in the parlance of psychology) is that people also laugh when certain expectations are defied in a very witty manner.
As a professional stand-up comedian, knowing all the rules and tricks is just one part of the coin. Being able to, either by practice or repeated efforts during practice, internalize these principles, practice them and effectively use them is the artistic part of the picture.
There those who are gifted naturally with a principle thought process that elicits laughter from others, would be termed hilarious. However, to make a living out of comedy, one would need to fully understand the principles and practice to deliver them as naturally as possible.
Another paradigm to the art of comedy is that, it has to be very witty. Wit many times may come with an element of suprise... a new angle that was previously "unthought" of.
Cheers!
