Answer:

A) True

Explanation:

This week someone in Brazil died due to faulty Takata airbag in a Honda Civic (a 2008 model). Honda Brazil had run a recall campaign for more than 4 years in Brazil, but since they were not able to locate the owner of the car, then they are legally responsible for the death. The problem was that the original owner sold the car to a third party and then they resold it again venereal times, so it wasn't possible to locate the last owner.

But if Jared had been personally warned about the defective brakes, then the car company is not liable for any accidents. On the other hand, if Jared just knew about the defective breaks because some friend who is a mechanic told him so, then the car company is responsible for the accident.

Since the question only states that Jared knew about the defect, then I guess that the car company was able to contact him personally.

Suppose the spot exchange rate for the Canadian dollar is Can$1.12 and the six-month forward rate is Can$1.14.
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

a)

1$ = Can $1.12

It takes a value of 1 U.S dollar to have 1.12 Canadian dollars.  This signifies that the U.S dollar is worth more than Canadian dollars.

b)

Assuming that the absolute Purchasing Power Parity PPP holds,

Since 1$ = Can $1.12, the cost  in the United States of an Elkhead beer, if the price in Canada is Can$2.85 can be determined to be:

= \dfrac{2.85}{1.12}

= $2.545

c)

Yes, the U.S. dollar is selling at a premium relative to the Canadian dollar.

This is because we are being told that the spot exchange rate for the Canadian dollar is Can $1.12 & in six (6) months time the forward rate will be Can $1.14.

d)

The U.S dollar is expected to appreciate in value because it is trading at a premium in the forward market.

e)

Canada has higher interest rates. This determined by using the formula:

= \dfrac{(\dfrac{Fwd}{Spot }-1)}{n}

where; n= numbers of years = 6 month/12 month = 0.5 year

Then;

=\dfrac{(\dfrac{1.14}{1.12 }-1)}{0.5}

= \dfrac{(1.0178-1)}{0.5}

= \dfrac{(0.0178)}{0.5}

= 0.0356

= 3.56%

nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

The correct answer is to put the two variables in the same type of measure.  

Explanation:

To begin with, in order to compare to different variables that are in different measures the correct way to proceed is to put them in the same measure so therefore they will be comparable with each other. Once said that, in this case the person should put the psychological benefits in economics benefits as it is the other variable and in order to do that the person should think of what aspects of his productivity would increase if he takes the vacations and gains the psychological benefits. For example, after getting back from the holidays he may feel himself less stress and more relax and therefore that he may be able to either do more job, more studies or more excercises and all that can impact in an economic way.
