Answer and explanation:
In Joan's case, a general partnership will provide her control over her business that will be shared with the older gentleman who owns a jewelry store. Profits would be distributed evenly regardless of the contribution of each partner in the business. However, the older gentleman has offered Joan the chance of purchasing his share later on which would provide her the total control of the business and the patent of her creation.
The other option Joan has available is purchasing a franchise. This will allow Joan to avoid the initial costs of introducing her products to the market and the risks of not having enough consumers since her brand name is new. Though she will lose access to the patent of her creation and periodically Joan will need to pay NewJewelry a fee for using its name.
Therefore, <em>as Joan prefers to have control over her designs, it would be more convenient for her to choose the general partnership.</em>

Answer: Consumption and investment spending decrease or falls.
Explanation:
When the Federal Reserve decreases the money supply, this will lead to a fall in the consumption and investment spending. This is a contractionary policy by the government which is typically used to curb inflation.
Since there's reduction in money supply, there'll be less money in circulation and hence, decrease in consumption and investment expenditure.
Answer: 88.89 or 89
Explanation: Futures contract refers to a legal binding which obligates a buyer and seller to transact about a commodity, good, security or services at a predetermined price but goods are delivered or paid for in the future.
Given the following ;
Portfolio value(p) = $20million
Portfolio Beta (b) = 1.2
Index price (i) = 1080
Multiplier = 250
Future value(A) = index price × multiplier
Future value(A) = 1080 × 250 = 270000
Number of contracts (N) = (portfolio value × portfolio Beta) ÷ future value
N = ($20,000,000×1.2)÷270000
N = 24000000 ÷×270000
N = 88.8888=88.89
N = 89 (NEAREST whole number)
