Answer:

4) All of the above

Explanation:

The day care program should have rewardedbeing on time to encourage this attitude.

Instead they put a price on being late. As parent considers this price cheap they arrive later to have some extra time beofre picking their childrens

Either the day care program reconsiders the fine policy and moves into a better program to estimulate being on time or it increases the "price" so is more expensive for the parents to come in time rather than paiying their fines.

Answer:

The correct answer is number (4): All of the above.

Explanation:

<em>The fine eliminated the non-financial incentives to be on time </em>and <em>the fine was perceived as a price </em>because parents possibly felt guilty for picking up their children late but no punishments were given before the penalty. Since it was introduced, parents may consider it a fair trade for being late and are willing to pay the penalty.

Besides, it is possible that <em>the fine was not high enough to make parents change their behavior</em> because instead of decreasing the number of parents picking up their children late, the penalty increased it.

Answer:

Aristotle argues that what differentiates human beings from other animals is the human reason.

Explanation:

"Good life" can be seen as the one in which a person understand and exercise their rational faculties. The word "good" can be used to show moral approval. Therefore, for someone to be called good, they must have possessed and practiced many important virtues and not pursuing their own pleasure all the time.

According to Aristotle, happiness consists in achieving all the goods like health, wealth, knowledge, friends etc throughout a lifetime. He sees happiness as the central purpose of human life.

Aristotle believes that the highest good is a solitary nucleus which all other goods are acted upon and this highest good is happiness.

The stock of Nogro Corporation is currently selling for $10 per share. Earnings per share in the coming year are expected to be
V125BC [204]

Answer:

a) required rate of return = 10%

b)Also, if there is no growth then Return on Equity will be equal to the Required rate of return. Hence there won't be any change.

c) a cut in the dividend payout to 25% will have no effect  or impact and as such the stock price will remain the same.

A complete elimination of dividend will not affect the stock price as well.

Explanation:

The question is in three parts and will be answered accordingly

a) The Required Rate of Return = (The Dividend Expected for the next year/ Current Price of Stock) + the Growth rate

First, we calculate the Dividend expected per share for the next year

=earnings per share x Dividends pay out ratio

=$2 /$10 = 20%

Secondly, we now calculate the return on equity as follows

= Expected Earnings Per share / Current Selling price

= $2 x (1-50%) = 10%

The third is to calculate the Growth rate =

Return on Equity x (1 - Dividend payout ratio)

= 20% x (1-50%) = 10%

Using this with the formula of required rate of return

= ($1 /$10) +10% = 20%

b) First the assumption is that all earnings were paid as dividend with no reinvestment and in this scenario, the lack of reinvestment will mean no growth. Also, if there is no growth then Return on Equity will be equal to the Required rate of return. Hence there won't be any change.

c) Because the Return on Equity is equal to required rate of return, it means a cut in the dividend payout to 25% will have no effect  or impact and as such the stock price will remain the same.

A complete elimination of dividend will not affect the stock price as well.

If all of your organization's data is centralized in a small number of data centers, than focusing security on perimiter defense
Bogdan [553]

The answer is false.

To stop attacks and secure essential data, defense-in-depth user protection entails a mix of security products (e.g., WAF, antivirus, antispam software, etc.) and training. Multiple security products can be bundled in the same package by a provider providing software to protect end users against cyberattacks.

If one protection fails, another is present to prevent an attack. This deliberate redundancy increases security and helps guard against a broader range of assaults.

Therefore, answer is false.
