Seventeen years ago, Susan designed a corrugated steel culvert for a rural road. Her work was accepted and paid for by the count

y engineering department. Last winter, the culvert collapsed as a loading logging truck passed over. Although there were no injuries, there was damage to the truck and the roadway, and the county tried unsuccessfully to collect on Susan's company's bond. The judge denied the claim on the basis that the work was done too long ago. This defense is known as:________.
(a) privity of contract
(b) duplicity of liability
(c) statute of limitations
(d) caveat emptor
(c) statute of limitations

Answer:

C. Statute of limitations.

Explanation:

Statute of limitations are laws which states the time limit of when legal proceedings must be initiated between concerned parties from the date in which alleged offence was perpetrated.

In statue of limitations, the time limit for somebody is wronged to initiate legal action is not fixed in all jurisdiction. It means that depending on the nature of the alleged offense under statute of limitation, time allowed to institute legal actions varies.

Example of statue of limitation is that for certain states, the time limit to initiate legal case say on fraud is two years. It means that one must bring up the case in a court of law within the stipulated two years period. Once the two year grace elapse, one can no longer sue for fraud in the court of law.

Although there is no time limit for certain offence like murder case, sex offence with minor etc.

As in the case above, the judge threw away the case because according to the law of statute of limitation, a party that is wronged can only sue the wrong doer within the stipulated time as spelt out within the jurisdiction where the alleged offence was committed.

g Compare and contrast a four Ps approach to marketing versus the value approach (creating, communicating, delivering and exchan
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

The 4Ps are Product, Pricing, Promotion, Place.

Explanation:

Thinking about it carefully, one would note that there is really nothing to contrast between the value approach which is Creating, Communicating, Delivering and Exchanging Value.

Let's make the comparisons:

  • Products and Services are Created. It's impossible to have a product or service that is not created.

The inherent quality of a Utility or Product or Service is that they are value which is Created. So in describing the marketing approach, one can use both interchangeably.

  • Pricing vs Exchanging Value

Again there is a parallel here. Price is the value you have put on your product or service. Without price, it's difficult to exchange value. Again in the marketing process/approach, it's difficult to separate the two. In both approaches, pricing and Exchanging Value as steps in the marketing approach can be used interchangeably.

  • Communicating vs Promotion

This is also another parallel. Promotion is simply another way to communicate the value of your product. Both are really not different.

  • Delivering Value vs Place

Place under the 4 Ps approach speaks to the location where the product is delivered. Again it's clear to see that both cannot be separated.

In conclusion, assuming all factors are the same and held constant between two companies A and B, if company A follows the 4Ps approach and company B follows the Value approach, they are most likely to arrive at the same results.

Cheers!

<em>We see the difference between the weighted average and FIFO method is that the FIFO method only accounts for the current period costs not the total the costs.Where as the weighted method includes all the costs from preceeding department and also current costs.</em>

The ________ is responsible for monitoring the money supply and the general stability and safety of the u. s. banking system.
____ [38]

The Federal Reserve is responsible for monitoring the money supply and the general stability and safety of u. s. banking system.

The US Central Banking System - The Federal Reserve System or Federal Reserve Board (Fed) is the most powerful economic institution in the United States and possibly the world. Its core responsibilities include setting interest rates, managing the money supply, and regulating financial markets.

The Federal Reserve promotes the safety and soundness of individual financial institutions and oversees their impact on the financial system as a whole.

The FOMC controls the country's money supply. The voting members of the FOMC are the Board of Governors, the president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, and the presidents of the other four Reserve Banks, who function on a rotating basis. All Reserve Bank Governors participate in FOMC policy discussions.
