Explanation:

Carriers are liable for the loss of goods being transported by them under three scenarios: acts of God (because they are unpredictable), acts of the shipper (negligence of the person providing with the goods being transported), and acts of a public enemy (a country engaging into the war).

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Interest= $26,131.91

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Annual deposit= $2,000

Number of periods= 20 years

Interest rate= 5%

First, we need to calculate the future value using the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit

FV= {2,000*[(1.05^20) - 1]} / 0.05

FV= $66,131.91

Now, we can determine the interest earned:

Interest= future value - total investment

Interest= 66,131.91 - 20*2,000

Interest= $26,131.91

Flura [38]

Answer:

The answer is autonomy (Option D)

Explanation:

Autonomy in human resource management refers to the level or degree of discretion and freedom which an employee is permitted to exercise when performing his/her job. In other words, it means granting employees the freedom on how to approach work.

A manager or superior like Margie (in the question) who gives employees autonomy simply gives minimal instruction on what needs to be achieved but allows the employees to go about the job in ways that best suit them.

The bond has a 12% annual coupon rate, a $1,000 par value, it matures in 15 years and pays coupon quarterly. The current bond pr

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

A. 14.28%

Explanation:

As per Approximation formula,

Quarterly yield = (A + B / C) * 100

A = Quarterly coupon = 12% of 1,000 / 4 =30

B = (Redemption - Price value / Number of coupon) = (1,000 - 900) / (15 * 4)

= 1.667

C= (Redemption value + Price / 2) = 1,000 + 900 / 2 = 1,900 /2 = 950

Quarterly yield = 30 + 1.66667 / 950 = 31.6667 / 950 = 0.03333

Quarterly yield = 3.33%

Using the calculator, we get exact Ytm quarterly = 3.3925%

Effective amount yield = {(1 + 0.033925)^4 - 1} * 100

Effective amount yield = 0.142762 * 100

Effective amount yield = 14.2762%

Effective amount yield = 14.28%
