Answer:

Option A. MDC should bring a lawsuit against "John Doe" and use the authority of the court to obtain the identity from NuView.

Explanation:

A statement is considered defamatory if it tends to harm the reputation of a person or company such that it lowers that person or company in the eyes of the community or deters third persons from dealing with the person or company.

This would include statements that expose the subject to hatred, ridicule or contempt or reflect unfavorably on the personal morality or integrity.

In this case of defamatory statements about MDC, MDC should first find out if the statements are actionable or not under law, then file a lawsuit against "John Doe" (an anonymous party, typically the plaintiff, in a legal action). If it is, NuView will be made to give the identity of the anonymous poster through the authority of the court.

Therefore, the option that best suits the question is option A. MDC SHOULD BRING A LAWSUIT AGAINST "JOHN DOE" AND USE THE AUTHORITY OF THE COURT TO OBTAIN THE IDENTITY FROM NuView.

Art [367]

Answer:

$80 million

Explanation:

We know that

Multiplier = (1) ÷ (1 - marginal propensity to consume)

                = (1) ÷ (1 - 0.75)

                = (1) ÷ (0.25)

                = 4

Now the GDP would increase by

= Increase in  Investment spending × multiplier effect

= $20 billion × 4

= $80 million increase

We simply multiplied the investment spending increase with the multiplier effect

Which is most true of an annual rate of 4% compounded quarterly? A) It is equivalent to 4.4% paid annually. B) It is equivalent
Artemon [7]

Answer:

D) It is equivalent to 4.06% paid annually

Explanation:

Since it is not talking about annuity and simple compound interest, therefore assuming investment value = $100 then interest will be as follows:

Interest for each quarter = \frac{4}{100} \times \frac{3}{12} = 1%

But this 1% will be paid on the compounded value

Interest at end of Quarter 1 = $100 X 1% = $1

Compounded value at end of Quarter 1 = $100 + $1 = $101

Interest at end of Quarter 2 = $101 X 1% = $1.01

Compounded value at end of Quarter 2 = $101 + $1.01 = $102.01

Interest at end of Quarter 3 = $102.01 X 1% = $1.0201

Compounded value at end of Quarter 3 = $102.01 + $1.0201 = $103.0301

Interest at end of Quarter 4 = $103.0301 X 1% = $1.030301

Compounded value at end of Quarter 4 = $103.0301 + $1.030301 = $104.060401

Now net return annually = $4.060401/$100 = 4.06%

Final Answer

D) It is equivalent to 4.06% paid annually
