What is the role of shareholders in a corporation ?

Business
1 answer:
Debora [2.8K]3 years ago

Shareholders invest money in a business.

Typically, a share holder owns such a small portion of a company (through a few shares of stock, for example) that they have no idea or say in the daily operations or hiring/firing decisions. A shareholder typically needs to own a "controlling share" or be on the board of directors to make those decisions.

Parker had just graduated from Howard University in Washington, DC at the top of his class with a B.S. in Computer Engineering.
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

The firm wins because these actions are not illegal.

Explanation:

The laws that prohibit non physical harassment at work are:

  • Title VII which prohibits discrimination based on race, color, sex, religion, etc.
  • ADEA which protects people who are older than 40 years old against discrimination based on their age.

Parker should first address this issue with the company and see how it can work out. It is very difficult for someone to win a lawsuit if they don't fall under any protected category. In this case, Parker's colleagues are jealous because he is simply smarter and that is the reason why they are harassing him. I guess that if he can prove with a psychiatrist report that the continuous harassment is affecting his well being, he might have a chance.

I knew a case from first hand about a very beautiful woman who had two careers and was very smart and efficient. She wasn't harassed by men, most men at the office only starred at her and wouldn't dare to talk to her. She was harassed by other women that were jealous about her beauty and the fact that she was probably the smartest person around. Besides everybody knowing that the other women were jealous, and everyone making jokes about who was most jealous, she couldn't do anything about it. She ended up quitting the job and to be honest her life got much better at another place. Sometimes an organization's culture is managed by one or two individuals, and if they feel threatened by someone else, they may act in a very childish way and the rest follows.

As the price level declines along the aggregate demand curve, the interest rate is most likely to:___________.
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

a. Decline

Explanation:

Whenever there is a reduction in the price level, this results in gains in the real money supply which eventually moves the LM curve to the right.

Hence, given that, the IS curve has a downward slope, the IS and LM curves will meet at a higher level of income and a lower interest rate.

Therefore, the correct answer, in this case, is Option A: DECLINE

Note LM means Liquidity and Money

While IS means Investment and Savings.

Your company incurs a cost for fire insurance, which in the short run, is fixed. What happens to the cost in the long run? In th
amid [387]

Answer:

The correct answer is it becomes variable cost.

Explanation:

In the short run there are fixed costs and variable costs which sum up the total costs incurred. This is because in short run not all factors are variable, some factors are fixed as well. So, expenses on fixed factors come under fixed and those on variable factors come under variable costs.

In the long run though, all the factors are variable. All factors can be changed. So there are no fixed costs in the long run run. All the costs incurred on all factors become variable costs.
