zhannawk [14.2K]3 years ago
6 0

A bulk gaining industry is one where the product gains weight or volume through the production process (the whole is greater than the sum of the parts). Due to logistical and transportation costs it is advantageous to produce bulk-gaining materials closer to where they are sold. This is why foreign car companies (Toyota, mazda, etc) have US-based production plants to save on these costs.

kompoz [17]

Answer:

  1. Sole Proprietorship
  2. Partnership
  3. Limited Partnership
  4. Limited Liability Company      

Explanation:

Sole Proprietorship is the type of business in which the liability is not limited. Due to this issue, the owner is solely responsible to pay off the debts of company from his personal owned assets if the business goes bankrupt.

Partnership is just like sole proprietorship but here the partners are the only responsible persons to payoff the debt of the company because the liability is limitless. The burden of the company debts is equally shared among the partners.

Limited Partnership is less risky because the liability is limited and only the amount invested in the business is subjected to the payment of borrowings from the lenders. The limited partner is responsible for his actions which means if his misdeed resulted in fine then it would be paid from his share first and then the other partners are equally liable to for compensation if their is still any amount left.

In the case of Limited liability company, the liability is limited and the burden of the payment of the liability falls on the company. So the investor is not subjected to pay the debts of the company because the limited liability company is a separate entity and is solely liable to pay for its debts.

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

expectations theory

Explanation:

Expectations theory is defined as the prediction of what short-term interest rates will amount to in future based on the current long-term interest rates on an investment.

The theory suggests or states that "an investor will earn the same amount of interest by investing in two consecutive one-year bond investments that in one two-year bond investment".

Simply put, the theory say that one can invest twice in a one year bond and still make the same interest rate as investing once in a two-year bond.

This theory helps investors to make profits faster and even higher through multiple investments on bonds.
