Answer:

a. differences in values
2. Despite their differences, with which proposition are two economists chosen at random most likely to agree?
a. Lawyers make up an excessive percentage of elected officials.
Explanation:
Economists chosen at random do not usually agree on economic events and realities, instead, they are more likely to agree on issues that are not economic. They offer differing opinions based on similar principles. Most of their disagreements stem from differences in what they place their values on. Some value market-oriented approaches while others value government interventions in market situations, with other variants in-between.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
A capital budgeting decision refers to how a business decides to invest money it already holds. Businesses decide how to invest their current assets anticipating the potential future revenues that those investments will yield.
In this case, BP is investing $500 with the University of California-Berkeley probably as an sponsor of research projects (as part of R&D). Any potentially revenue generating project should then be shared by both the university and BP.
Answer:
1. False
The higher the figure, the higher the risk. Kindly note that loans are usually insured against default. The higher the amount insured, the higher the premium payable as insurance on such amounts.
2. False
It does not make for good internal control to have one person regardless of their position to have the final say on loans of great magnitude such as $5 Million. This can quickly degenerate into a situation where the officer involved is tempted to abuse that power. It makes for good corporate governance and risk management to ensure that the board is responsible for loans of such magnitude.
3. True
If a bank lost $100 in a thousand places, from loan default, that translates to a loss of $100,000. This relatively is large however it is small and will have less impact that a loss of a million dollars in 3 places. That's $ 3,000,000.
As already indicated, it makes for good loan disbursement governance, to ensure that there is at least two persons involved in the risk acceptance criteria (RAC) evaluation and loan disbursement process.
4. False
Separation of duties is the foundation of good internal control. It allows for greater objectivity. It is also key to carefully select signatories to loan disbursements. They have to be people of impeccable character and the company must exercise proper risk management to ensure that every protocol such as opportunity that may create the impulse or inclination to breach policy is removed completely.
