Answer: C

Conversion

Explanation:

Conversion is often defined as other interference of a person’s right to property without the owner’s consent and without lawful justification. Stevenson v. Economy Bank of Ambridge, 413 Pa. 442 (Pa. 1964). Elias is guilty of tort by virtue of the fact that he accessed the property of Data Corporation without any consent to do such and as such is liable to liabilities arising from his actions. The action he carried out was deliberate and must answer for damages in a civil lawsuit.

Answer: c. Conversion

Explanation: Elias is most likely liable for the tort of conversion. A tort is a wrongful act, whether intentional or negligent, which causes an injury and can be remedied in civil court, usually through the awarding of damages. Tort of conversion under common law is the wrongful act of the taking of someone's or an organization's personal property with intent to permanently deprive them of it, or damaging property to the extent that the owner is deprived of the utility of that property, thus making the tortfeasor (in this case, Elias) liable for the entire value of the property.

In 3-4 sentences describe how economic liberty helps water the "money tree" in a free enterprise.
il63 [147K]

Answer:

It helps giving you the ability to choose what you think is best for your business

Explanation:

Vic, using the money tree metaphor is awesome in order to explain. Think about your free enterprise (let’s say… a store that sells trees!).

What you need in order to start and run a business? A place to sell those trees, employees, products, infrastructure, etc., and capital to fund all that. All that business plans and models that you will develop in order to have a successful business will require that you make economic decisions, actions. And, in order to make those decisions, you need economic liberty, which is exactly the ability one has to make economic decisions without political, economic or social blocks.

Imagine that in your region you can only sell trees with red leaves, or your trees are taxed much more than trees coming from overseas, or that employment law requires that no employee gets near a plant (who knows, it could be to prevent allergic season!). That would make super hard to develop your business right?

That’s how economic liberty could help you grow your money tree; into giving you the ability to choose what you think is best for your business.

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

Direct, upward sloping

Explanation:

Supply refers to the quantities of goods or services that firms are willing to sell to the markets are a specific price. As per the law of supply, an increase in prices leads to an increase in the quantity supplied. Therefore, the relationship between the price and quantity supplied is direct. Firms prefer to supply more products to the markets at higher prices because they will make more profits.

The supply curve is a graphical presentation of the relationship between price and quantity supplied.  The supply curve is upward sloping. It originates from the bottom left corner, showing how quantities vary along the curve at different prices. Quantity supplied increases as the price rise.

Horizontal analysis can either use absolute comparisons or percentage comparisons, where the numbers in each succeeding period are expressed as a percentage of the amount in the baseline year, within the baseline amount being listed as 100%.
