Answer: A. the company will be willing to pay a different amount for this resource.

Answer:
Investors will have to pay tax on the interest income received from the bonds.
Explanation:
Interest earned from corporate bonds and capital gained through corporate bond transactions is taxable income. The interest earned from a corporate bond is subject to taxation by both the federal and state governments.
The government will not sell sin Qua corporation bonds as it is a public company. Bonds do not pay interest quarterly but rather semi-annually or annually. Again, the maturity of the bond is determined at the time they are issued. Creditworthiness will only affect the bond price but not its maturity period.
Investors will have to pay tax on the interest income received from the bonds is thus the correct statement.
Answer:
The answer is B. Ethan has more experience than Karen.
Explanation:
Now, lets take each Answer option separately and see why only B is correct.
Option A is no longer legally accepted or ethical. Perhaps during the era of segregation back in 1960s' this option could have been acceptable. But today it is illegal and is considered as a violation of basic human rights.
Option C is not correct as well because although people with special needs and physical requirements are entitled to receive certain special treatments, paying them more solely based on their disability is not considered suitable nor ethical.
Option D is unacceptable. No one can assume that men have more stamina than women. There are competent, strong and qualified women who can do their jobs much better than men. So we cannot accept this as an answer.
Option E is incorrect as well. Although a person could be an immigrant, once that person has lawfully taken the citizenship of a country, that "immigrant" is considered as a "citizen" of that country (this is not applicable for illegal immigrants!).
However, we can take option B as the answer. This is because when comparing a new employee with a more experienced employee, we can't see any problem in paying the experienced employee more.
