In recent years Walmart had participated in “lock-ins”, (Walmart also owns sam’s club). Lock-ins lock in employees over night to stock shelves and clean. The doors can only be opened during a fire or when the manager unlocks the door. An employee got injured and couldn’t leave due to fear of losing their job. This is why they refer to Walmart as a monopoly. The government has labor laws in place to prevent poor work conditions like this.

Frankie is deciding between two jobs that provide equal pay. He compares the health care benefits provided by both jobs to help
Semmy [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is Money in flexible spending accounts is not taxed, so employees get more take-home pay.

Explanation:

Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA), also known as reimbursement accounts, are optional benefit plans offered by many US employers. UU. which allow their employees to save money from their salaries on a pre-tax basis for eligible out-of-pocket medical expenses and dependent care.

There are two types of FSA. One is for expenses related to health care and the other for expenses related to dependent care. These two accounts are separated. You can enroll in one or both during the open enrollment period, but it is important to keep in mind that the money in one account cannot be used to pay expenses for the other.

You can enroll in an FSA only during the open enrollment period of the company unless you have a "change in family status" that meets the requirements during the year, such as a marriage, a birth or adoption, a divorce or loss of insurance coverage of your spouse. The amount (s) of the contributions you designate for the year will be deducted from your salary each month (or each pay period, check your employer's plan for more details).

You must re-enroll actively and every year in the FSA; the amounts of contributions are not maintained from one year to another. Also note that FSAs are not transferable from one employer to another. You must enroll in your new employer's plan if you change companies.

A customer in the 28% tax bracket is considering the purchase of a municipal bond yielding 11% or a corporate bond yielding 16%.
aalyn [17]

Answer:

The correct option is option B which is the effective yield of the corporate bond is higher.

Explanation:

The complete question is not given so it is found online and is attached herewith.

In order to compare the tax free municipal yield to the taxable corporate yield, the two must be equalized.

So the equalization of the yield is given by

Equivalent\,Yield=\dfrac{Tax \,Free \,Yeild}{100-Tax\, Bracket}

Here the Tax  Free Yield is 11%

The Tax bracket is 28%

So the equivalent yield of the municipal bond is given as

Equivalent\,Yield=\dfrac{Tax \,Free \,Yeild}{100-Tax\, Bracket}\\Equivalent\,Yield=\dfrac{11}{100-28}\\Equivalent\,Yield=15.27\%

Now the options are as below

A. The effective yield on the municipal bond is higher

B. The effective yield on the corporate bond is higher

C. Both effective yields are equivalent

D. The coupon rates for each bond are necessary to determine the effective yield

As the effective yield of municipal bond is 15.27% while that of the corporate bond is 16% so the correct option is option B which is the effective yield of the corporate bond is higher.

Considering other applicants we see that Samuel has experience only in designing the building not experience related to supervision and have not even held a managerial position.Rhonda is a mechanical engineer and have experience in designing building but does not have a prior experience in in holding any managerial or supervisory position.The same holds true with Enrique also.

so the correct answer is  Hayley is the most appropriate candidate.
