Answer:
C) violated the Sixth Amendment right to a jury trial.
Explanation:
Federal Sentencing Guidelines should be guided by the following principles:
- The court should order the organization to remedy any harm caused.
- If the primary purpose of the organization was to commit crimes, then the court should set a fine that strips away all the assets from the organization.
- The court should set fines based on how serious the offenses were and the degree of culpability of the organization.
-
The court can impose a probation sentence if it believes that the organization will take steps to reduce the likelihood of future criminal conduct.
The sentencing guidelines should offer incentives for organizations to eliminate criminal conduct.
Answer:
$290,000
Explanation:
We start with the cost of building a replica of the house:
building a new house: $350,000
plus highest and best use $25,000
minus perceived value loss ($20,000)
minus physical deterioration ($50,000)
<u>minus building obsolescence ($15,000) </u>
appraised value $290,000
Simply put, Decision making is defined as the process involved in making a decision. It involves comparing alternatives and finding a solution to a problem.
The four styles of decision making are directive, analytical, conceptual and behavioral. Each style is a different method of weighing alternatives and examining solutions.
Kyle prefers to base decisions on lots of data, both objective data from information systems and qualitative data from people - Analytical decision style
Bill prefers simple, clear-cut solutions to problems. - Directive decision style.
Josie likes to talk to people one on one to find out how the decision will affect them - Behavioural decision style.
Answer:
Explanation:
A heart transplant is a surgical procedure that replaces the person’s heart with a donor heart. A person may require a heart transplant for several reasons including congenital, arterial and muscle diseases or for unforeseen reasons such as accidents or viral infections.
The donor heart is matched to the recipient by blood type. More variables are also used to decide which recipient receives a heart if there are not enough hearts available for all recipients waiting for a transplant. The variables included in the decision may include the recipient state of health, cause of the heart condition and the urgency of the transplant.
The main goal of this project is for you to write a matching function that receives as a parameter the number of available hearts for transplant and will output all the recipients ranked in order of precedence.
Answer:
Explanation:
- Given the equation ; Qxd = 10,000 − 4PX + 5PY + 2M + AX
- where PX is the price of X = $50
- PY is the price of good Y = $100
- and AX is the amount of advertising on X = 1,000 units
a) Calculate the quantity demanded of good X ; Plugging all the values into the equation ;
= 10,000 − 4(50) + 5(100) + 2(25,000) + 1000
Qxd = 61,300units
b) Calculate the own price elasticity of demand for good ;
= d(Qxd)/dpx X px/Qxd = -4 x 50/61,300
= 0.0033. hence he demand for goods is inelastic
c) l will surely recommend lowering the price as this is evident from the value of the price elasticity of demand which is negative as such an increase in the price of their goods will give rise to total loss
d ) cross-price elasticity between goods X and Y = %change in quantity/ %change in price
e) Calculate the income elasticity of good X. Is good X normal or an inferior good? = dQ/dM X M/Q = 2(25000) /61300
= 0.82.
Yes! Good X is a normal goods since the value of the income elasticity is positive.
