Answer:

The answer is B. Ethan has more experience than Karen.

Explanation:

Now, lets take each Answer option separately and see why only B is correct.

Option A is no longer legally accepted or ethical. Perhaps during the era of segregation back in 1960s' this option could have been acceptable. But today it is illegal and is considered as a violation of basic human rights.

Option C is not correct as well because although people with special needs and physical requirements are entitled to receive certain special treatments, paying them more solely based on their disability is not considered suitable nor ethical.

Option D is unacceptable. No one can assume that men have more stamina than women. There are competent, strong and qualified women who can do their jobs much better than men. So we cannot accept this as an answer.

Option E is incorrect as well. Although a person could be an immigrant, once that person has lawfully taken the citizenship of a country, that "immigrant" is considered as a "citizen" of that country (this is not applicable for illegal immigrants!).

However, we can take option B as the answer. This is because when comparing a new employee with a more experienced employee, we can't see any problem in paying the experienced employee more.

Stock prices tend to ignore unexpected changes in dividend payments. Companies prefer to cut dividend payments rather than borro
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer: B. Maintaining a steady dividend is a key goal of most dividend-paying companies.

Explanation:

Companies that pay dividends prefer in general, to maintain a steady dividend overtime. This does not necessarily mean that they will pay the same amount of dividend but rather that they will pay out dividends as within a certain percentage range of the net income.

Companies do not prefer to cut dividends so as not to send the wrong message so A is wrong. Share repurchases reduces agency costs so C is wrong. Short term fluctuations in cash flow are not the key favor in determining dividend policy as the company might still pay out the same regardless so this is wrong as well. Option B is the best answer.

abruzzese [7]

Answer: Goal acceptance

Explanation:

Most times in organizations, it is the people in leadership positions who set and manage goals for the employees and it is rare for staff to be part of the goal setting process,

Such employees are sometimes not sure of what to do and how to achieve the goals. Such employees are not in charge of their own responsibilities. Employee goal acceptance is when employees are just part of the process when making decisions even though the goals are set by the management.

Which of the following statements regarding perpetuities is​ FALSE? A. A perpetuity is a stream of equal cash flows that occurs
Xelga [282]

Answer:

The answer is: C) PV of a perpetuity​ = StartFraction r Over Upper C EndFraction (I guess this means PV = r / C, which is FALSE)

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the present value of a perpetuity is:

                        PV = C / r

Where PV = Present Value, C = cash flow, r = discount rate.

A perpetuity is a stream of equal cash flows that lasts forever (perpetually).

The formula for calculating the present value of a perpetuity is simple, so there is no reason to spend time calculating the present value of each cash flow, since there are infinite cash flows.

A consol bond s a type of perpetuity issued by the British government (also by the US government)
