Answer:

b. Roma and Taylor

Explanation:

In this case each attorney is liable for his negligence, so Taylor will be liable for not appearing in court .

Roma is his supervisor, and he will also be liable because he is responsible for Taylor's performance.

The other attorneys in the firm will not be liable, because there is personal liability. When they are not directly involved in negligence, they will not be liable to Umberto.

3. There a number of market entry strategies that businesses use in entering into markets outside their countries. a) Distinguis
sattari [20]

Answer:

a) Distinguish between the use of Franchising and Joint Venture as modes of entry into other countries by global businesses.

Franchising consists in the licensing of aspects of production and intellectual property to a another party: the franchise.

A Joint Venture is a business union between two or more parties, in which they split profit as well as costs and responsabilities.

b) What are the respective advantages and disadvantages of both strategies?

Franchising can be a quicker way to expand into foreign markets. The flexibility of the method, and the lower capital requirements are the reason why. This can be seen in the success that American fast-food brands have had using this method to expand in global markets.

A Joint-Venture can be more difficult to use for market expansion, however, it can be more profitable, because the profit will not be split among as many parties as in franchising, and more importantly, the firm maintains a higher control of the operation.

Steve Jobs has achieved a great deal of success. What are some possible negative consequences of the level of power that he hold
Virty [35]

Answer:

A negative consequence of the power he holds is that his company: Apple, has become the largest company in its market sector: consumer electronics.

For that reason, Steve Jobs has what in economics is known as market power: the ability to set prices above marginal cost, or in other words, the ability to set prices that are higher than necessary for the customer.

This amount of market power reduces the overall benefit for society, and society would be better off if more competitors entered the market to compete with Apple.
