Answer:

We should accept offer 2 because the amount <u>today</u> is higher than offer 1.  

(offer 1 is $89,500, offer 2 is 91305)

Explanation:

To get the right answer we have to compare the 2 offers in the same moment of time.  We use interest formula to bring the future amount to this moment.  

First offer is for $89,500 today

Second offer is $35,000 today and $70,000 in two years  discount rate is 11.5.

The formula of interest is A=P (1+r)ⁿ

A=Final amount  

P= Principal ( deposit)  

r= interest rate

n= time

We know A, r and n

Looking for P,

then  P= A/(1+r)ⁿ

P= 70000/(1+0,115)² =56305

Offer 2 is =35000+56305=91305

Consider the relative liquidity of the following assets:
motikmotik

Answer:

Liquidity of an asset refers to how easily convertible the asset is to cash or so called liquid money.

Most Liquid - A $5 bill

This is already cash so it is the most liquid there is.

Second-Most Liquid  - The funds in a money market account

Funds in a money market account are the second most liquid because most often they can simply be withdrawn from the fund. There might be limits on the number of withdrawals allowed though within a period.

Third-Most Liquid  -  A share in a publicly traded company

A share in a publicly trade company ranks here because to realize the cash, one would need to sell the share first.

Least Liquid - Your house

Your house will be the most difficult of these to liquidate as it will involve a much longer process to eventually get it sold and realize cash. The process will include but will not be limited to, advertising, hiring realtors, inspection etc.

Linda, the human relations manager, is having lunch with Kellyanne, who will be leaving to manage the company office in Hiroshim
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

1) In Japan, this is rude to openly tip waiters, waitress, etc. So to avoid squabbles over tipping some restaurants ask politely if they may charge a fee of 15% on coupons. But it is not expected, nor it is mandatory to have this rule. It is humiliating, disgusting for somebody to ask or wait for tips.

Tips are not seen as an incentive to better work in Japan.

2) Tips in Europe is way too modest, than in the US. In some countries it is not even expected, but the tips range within 5% to 10% when it is necessary.

3) Kellyanne is wrong in both pieces of information

Naya [18.7K]
Partly this statement is true however this does not implies to all.
In a big company, it;s really the top managers who do all the planning and decision making for the good of the company and then cascade it to the lower level for implementations
