Many activists and watchdogs argue that Google has not always done enough to promote or even protect human rights around the world. This is usually the result of efforts by Google to market its search engine in nations like China, where the state has an interest in maintaining censorship of search results. The project, known as Dragonfly, was recently abandoned by Google.

In recent years, Google was among the companies that faced criticism for marketing an app that allowed men in Saudi Arabia to track the locations of their wives by using their cell phones. This was seen as an affront to women's rights, and the company withdrew the product after criticism from the media and shareholders. Google's interest in artificial intelligence has also led to criticism about its commitment to ethical practices and to human rights.

At the same time, there is no doubt that Google has expanded people's access to information and to many other online services around the world. It has made several global public statements against censorship. Its most vocal critics, indeed, have pointed to its previous stands for free access to information in pointing out the hypocrisy of Dragonfly and other ventures.

evablogger [386]

Answer: the marketing costs of reaching loyal customers are typically very high

Explanation:

Brand loyalty is when a customer buys a product repeatedly from thesame company rather than buying a substitute from another company. Despite the efforts of the competitors to life them away, such customers are devoted to the product.

It should be noted that the marketing costs of reaching loyal customers are typically low. They hardly need any source of encouragement or advertisement to convince them to make their purchases.

Bear Tracks, Inc., has current assets of $2,280, net fixed assets of $10,400, current liabilities of $1,405, and long-term debt
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer: $7185

Explanation: Shareholders equity refers to the amount of funds that are collected by the company by selling their ownership rights in the market to the general investors.

As per the subject matter of accounts, every asset that is owned by an organisation is either financed by the available funds or some liability is taken to buy it. This could be illustrated as follows :-

assets =  shareholders equity + liabilities

Putting the values into equation we get :-

$2280 + $ 10,400 = $1,405 + $4090 + shareholders equity

therefore :-

shareholders equity = $7185

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is Maverick buying.

Explanation:

Maverick, is a wayward, a dissident, a rebel, someone who refuses to abide by the rules or resists joining a group. The term originates from Samuel A. Maverick (1803-1870), a Texas rancher, who refused to mark his cattle.

The "maverick buying", refers to purchases out of contract or channels established by an organization. For example, the Corporate Supply department negotiates a competitive price for certain particular models of laptops with a distributor. Days later, someone from the Human Resources department requests the purchase of a much more expensive model, for which a discount has not been negotiated.

Another example: traveling in an airline and staying in a hotel other than those with which the company has signed agreements.

The impact of bypassing the preferred purchasing channels and systems can vary from operational inefficiency, to missing out on the advantages of corporate contract negotiation, large fines and even jail time.

A corporate bond has a face value of $1,000 and a coupon rate of 9.5%. The bond matures in 12 years and has a current market pri
joja [24]

Answer:

5.71%

Explanation:

The after tax cost of debt=pretax cost of debt*(1-t)

where t is the tax rate of 35% or 0.35

pretax cost of debt=yield to maturity

The yield to maturity can be determined using rate formula in excel as below:

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

nper is the number of coupon interest payable by the bonds i.e 12 coupons in 12 years

pmt is the annual coupon=$1000*9.5%=$95

pv is the current market price-flotation cost=$1,100-$48=$1052

fv is the face value of $1000

=rate(12,95,-1052,1000)=8.78%

After tax cost of debt=8.78% *(1-0.35)=5.71%
