Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": franchising.

Explanation:

A Franchise is a business where one person, the <em>franchisee</em>, gains access to the proprietary knowledge, processes, and trademarks of a <em>franchisor</em>. In return for a royalty, the franchisee acquires the right to market a product or service under an existing brand name.

The customer is already familiar with the brand, so there is no need to invest additional resources to promote the product.

olasank [31]

Answer: b. The quantity of the country's currency supplied exceeds the quantity demanded.

Explanation:

A country operating a fixed-exchange rate system would be actively trading its currency to ensure that it remains at a certain rate. If the currency is overvalued, it means that the currency is actually weak and is being propped up by the company's actions in the forex market.

A reason for the weakness would be that the supply is higher than the demand of the currency which means that, as per the rules of supply and demand, the currency is trading at a lower price, i,e., it is weak.

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

The total non controlling interest after the additional shares are issued is equal to $252,000.

Explanation:

Before the issue Sage co's had 20,000 shares with total equity value of $500,000. After the issue of 5000 shares worth $200,000, the total number of shares and equity would be -

Total number of shares = 25,000 ( 20,0000 + 5000 )

Total equity value          = $700,000

Now Thyme inc owns 16,000 number of shares , which means that minority holds 9000 number of shares . Now the price per share would be =

       TOTAL EQUITY / NUMBER OF SHARES

         $700,000 / 25,000

=        $28

NON CONTROLLING INTEREST = Minority shares x Price per shares

                                                      = 9000 x $28

                                                      = $252,000
