There are two models of representation, trustee model and delegate model. Trustee model allows the people to elect a trustee who they 'entrust' with their constituency while in the delegate model, a delegate or representative is elected in a democracy to deliver the concerns of the people but the representative doesn't hold their constituency.

vovikov84 [41]

Ian is a uniquely good position here: the truth happens to be one of the best explanations he could possibly give. The fact that he quit his job to look after his sick mother, assuming that his former employer has positive things to say about him, is a solid reflection of his character and a sign that he was out of the job market not due to a lack of options, but a need to take care of a sick family member.
Ian should tell the truth, and explain the decision thoroughly to demonstrate the kind of person he is to the prospective employer, and what his priorities are.

A manufacturing firm has an annual demand of 300,000 units. Using its current operation, the firm pays $800,000 in annual fixed

Elodia [21]

Answer:

It is cheaper to make the units in-house by $300,000.-

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the total avoidable production costs of making 300,000 units:

Total variable cost= 300,000*15= $4,500,000

Total avoidable fixed cost= 800,000 - 200,000= $600,000

Total production cost= $5,100,000

Now, the total differential cost of buying:

Cost of buying= 300,000*18= $5,400,000

It is cheaper to make the units in-house.

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is C

Explanation:

The amount of correct balance which is shown in the bank account at the month end is:

= Month end balance - Outstanding balance + Deposit in transit at month end + Check which was erroneously charged by bank

= $36,000 - $10,000 + $4,000 + $600

= $26,000 + $4,600

= $30,600

Therefore, the month end balance amounts to $30,600 in the bank account.

Larry Jones gifts land to a school district, but the deed states "for so long as the land is used for a school." Jones owns a(n)

OleMash [197]

Answer:

Reversionary interest

Explanation:

If Larry Jones gifts land to a school district, but the deed states "for so long as the land is used for a school." Jones owns a reversionary interest.

A reversionary interest can be defined as a property law (deed) which states that when a property such as a land transfer is used on a clause; “for so long as” or “on condition that."

Hence, once the interest of the benefactor comes to an end, the property reverts back to its original owner (grantor). It also gives the grantor's next of kin, successor or heir the power or right to take the property back in the future if promises are broken or the agreement comes to an end.

This ultimately implies that, if a property stated in the deed is not used or used, for certain purposes.

In this scenario, Larry owns a reversionary interest because he gifts a land to the school district, but in the deed he stated "for so long as the land is used for a school."
