Bob, a weak swimmer, ignored warning signs in a recreational swimming area and went into deep water. He soon tired and realized

that he could not make it back to shore. Seeing Kelly, he cried out for help. Kelly, however, ignored the pleas. Bob was finally saved by Dorothy, but suffered partial brain damage by being submerged without oxygen for a number of minutes. Bob now sues Kelly for negligence for failing to save him:a. prevail because society places a duty on people to help each other and Kelly breached this duty, resulting in Bob's injury.
b. lose because Kelly had no legal duty to rescue him.
c. lose even though Kelly had a legal duty to save him, since Bob will not be able to prove that Kelly's failure to act was the proximate cause of his injuries.
d. lose because a reasonable person could not have foreseen that someone in a recreation area could not swim well.

Answer: The correct answer is "b. lose because Kelly had no legal duty to rescue him."

Explanation: Bob will lose because Kelly had no legal duty to rescue him,

While Kelly could have had a better attitude and at least tried to save him, she had no obligation to rescue him from the position he was in because of himself since Bob ignored the warning signs.

In the money creation process, the simple money multiplier assumes that banks hold no excess reserves. What is the consequence o
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

If banks hold excess reserves, then the money multiplier will be smaller.

Explanation:

It is easier to understand using an example:

required reserve rate = 5%

money multiplier = 1 / 5% = 20

if $100 are injected in to the economy and they are deposited in the banking system, the money supply will increase by $100 x 20 = $2,000. But this calculation only works if banks lend 100% of the loanable funds, but if instead banks only lend $90, instead of $95 ($100 x 95%), then the money multiplier will be 1 / 10% = 10. In this case, the money supply will only increase by half

Cindy invests $10000 in an account that pays an annual rate of 3.96%, compounding semi-annually. approximately how much does she
stiks02 [169]

Annual Compound Formula is:

A = P( 1 + r/n) ^nt

Where:

A is the future value of the investment

P is the principal investment

r is the annual interest rate

<span>n is the number of  interest compounded per year</span>

t is the number of years the money is invested


So for the given problem:

P = $10,000

r = 0.0396

n = 2 since it is semi-annual

t = 2 years

 

Solution:

A = P( 1 + r/n) ^nt

A = $10,000 ( 1 + 0.0396/2) ^ (2)(2)

A = $10000 (1.00815834432633616)

A = $10,815.83 is the amount after two years
