Robert G. Flanders Jr., the state-appointed receiver for Central Falls, RI, said his city's declaration of bankruptcy had proved

invaluable in helping it cut costs. Before the city declared bankruptcy, he said, he had found it impossible to wring meaningful concessions out of the city's unions and retirees, who were being asked to give up roughly half of the pensions they had earned as the city ran out of cash.

Answer: false

Explanation:

The alternative to the term of agreement is the declaration of bankruptcy, in which the cities can extract their pensions, it gives a much better alternative. It also increases the bargaining powers of the members of the city. It will help in extracting concessions from the government. It also increases the disagreement value of the city.

g100num [7]

Answer:

3.45%

Explanation:

the real wage at the beginning of the recession (12/07) = nominal wage / price index Dec. 2007 = $17.70 / 2.1141 = $8.3721

the real wage at the end of the recession (6/09) = nominal wage / price index June 2009 = $18.53 / 2.14527= $8.6609

% change in real wage = [($8.6609 - $8.3721) / $8.3721] x 100 = 3.44955% = 3.45%

Due to the recession, the price index changed less than the nominal wages since the inflation rate was very low. It is normal that during recessions, specially severe ones, the inflation rate decreases or even turns negative (what happened in Europe in those years).

Tasya [4]

Answer: a - the management and board of directors of the targeted firm disapprove of the proposed merger

Explanation:

A hostile takeover is a situation where the board of directors and senior managers are against the proposed merger.

There are several pre-offer takeover defense mechanisms. One of them is the golden parachute.

The golden parachute is a compensation agreement between a firm and its senior managers. The firm promises a very lucrative amount of money if the senior managers leave the firm if there's a change of control.

There are also post offer takeover defense. They include:

A. The crown jewel - in a crown jewel the firm sells off a subsidiary or an asset to a third party in an effort to mitigate the hostile take over.

B. Greenmail - the target buys its shares back from the acquiring company at a price higher than the market price. This is done with an agreement that the acquirer leaves the target company. It is a form of payoff by the target company.
