Answer and Explanation:

a. The estimation of the contribution margin for each segment is shown below:

                                                     (in millions)

<u>Particulars            Investor Advisor             Services Services   </u>

Income from

operations              $1,681                                  $1,660

Add:

Depreciation           $171                                     $154

Contribution

Margin                    $1,852                                  $1,814

2. Now the estimation of decline in operating income is

                                                   (in millions)

<u>Particulars         Combined services          Institutional Services   </u>

Revenues          $9,368                                $4,771

Less:

Variable cost    $5,702                                 $2,919

                    ($2,919 + $2,783)

Contribution

margin               $3,666                                 $1,852

Less:

Fixed cost         -$325                                    -$171

Net income        $3,341                                  $1,681

Give an example of a successful or unsuccessful transformational leader. What if anything about the context (e.g., industry, mar
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

One transformational leader that we can talk about was Martin Luther King Jr. who was an Activist and Minister who fought for American Civil Rights in the United States in the early 1950s. MLK jr. was both assisted and hindered by the time in history in which his efforts took place. This is because at the time African American Rights were almost non-existant and the Civil Rights movements were at an all time high. This means that MLK jr. was able to amass many followers as he was fighting to make the world a more equal place for everyone, but at the same time it was a time in history where racism was at an all time high as well. This hindered his efforts greatly and ultimately led to his death in 1968. Regardless, Martin Luther King Jr. made one of the biggest impacts in the Civil Rights movements in history as a transformational leader.

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Pn = P0(1+r)∧n

Pnis future value of P0

P0 is original amount invested

r is the rate of interest

n is the number of compounding periods (years, months, etc.)

P(n) = 2250(1+(.03/4)∧8

** since the interest is compounding quarterly, you need to divide the rate by 4, the number of quarters in a year.

Then you would do the math.
